rant: A Perception Of Value Revisited: The Active Rain Rate Of Return vs Cyber-welfare - 02/16/09 11:00 PM
On November 6, 2008 a few snide comments inspired me to write "A Perception Of Value." Now I find that I am inspired to revisit the concept once again. This time it is not in defense of myself but in defense of this Network. No one is perfect, but as far … (35 comments)
rant: Permission To Talk Does Not Equal Short Sale Authorization - 02/01/09 06:26 PM
Ever have a listing agent place a property in the MLS as a short sale without speaking with the bank first?
Just because the homeowner agrees to list the property as a short sale does not mean that you, the buyer, are dealing with an actual short sale.

My e-mail is out of control and I had to turn my cell phone off today. Seems when you write an open letter to the President people think you are a repository for their complaints, suggestions and inquiries.

I have to say I am very happy to be so exhausted (LOL). Who knew my new clients would keep me up well past minion bedtime time? :-)

The complaint outlined in an Attorney General Press release in sum and substance alleges that Mr. Teal, while living in Singapore, held a "mail drop box" in Marco Island which he used to defraud people out of their land. Mr. Teal appears to have … (12 comments)

"Industry’s Dirty Little Secret: Altered Reports" By David Brauner, WRE Editor is a must read.
I was saddened to discover that the intellectual property rights of appraisers are being mangled this way. If I created a PDF Report, I would not be pleased to discover that the work that I … (12 comments)
rant: Hack Attack Social Networking? - 11/16/08 04:22 PM
The Official Google Blog is an interesting read. They help track flu trends, provide spanking analytics (like YouTube Insights), and you can even see Ancient Rome reborn there as an animated YouTube video. My fave is their collections of hack attacks. They have these really cool competitions where they sponsor Code … (15 comments)
rant: A Perception of Value... - 11/06/08 08:43 AM
