real estate professionals: Turning Back Time Before the Real Estate Meltdown by Bob Boog - 09/07/09 03:23 PM
What if I could turn back time and elect you as president of the United States. The date is now September 7, 2004, and you have been able to keep all your present day knowledge.
Question: will you do something to stop the zero-down, no income verification real estate loans? Or will you just let things run their course?
You know these loans are bad and you have the power to stop the practice of issuing them. Are you brave enough to use your power, knowing that by doing so, you will help avert the greatest fiscal crises in the history … (0 comments)

real estate professionals: What happens in the pub, stays in the pub - 07/31/09 01:13 PM
Dear Bob,
I enjoy your sense of humor so I thought you might like this true story.
I was in the pub yesterday when I suddenly realized I desperately needed to fart. The music was really, really loud, so I timed my farts with the beat. After a couple of songs, I started to feel better. I finished my pint and noticed that everybody was staring at me. Then I suddenly remembered: I was listening to my iPod.

real estate professionals: The Wisdom of George Carlin - 07/29/09 04:28 PM
The Wisdom of George Carlin
Enjoy these bits of wisdom from George:
Always do whatever's next. At a formal dinner party, the person nearest death should always be seated closest to the bathroom. Atheism is a non-prophet organization. By and large, language is a tool for concealing the truth. Death is caused by swallowing small amounts of saliva over a long period of time. Don't sweat the petty things and don't pet the sweaty things. Dusting is a good example of the futility of trying to put things right. As soon as you dust, the fact of your next dusting … (1 comments)

real estate professionals: A Really Bad Day - 07/17/09 06:11 PM
There was this guy at a bar, just looking at his drink. He stays like that for half of an hour. Then, this big trouble-making truck driver steps next to him, takes the drink from the guy, and just drinks it all down. The poor man starts crying. The truck driver says, "Come on man, I was just joking. Here, I'll buy you another drink. I just can't stand to see a man cry." "No, it's not that. This day is the worst day of my life! First, all night I can't sleep, and my alarm doesn't wake me. As a result, I arrive late … (0 comments)

real estate professionals: The Gender of Nouns - Humor only an English major would Love - 06/29/09 08:05 PM
What is a noun? A noun is a word used to denote a person, place, thing, or idea.In the Spanish language, nouns are defined as being either masculine or feminine. Examples:
English has masculine and feminine nouns too, but in English they are called "male" or "female" words. Here are some examples:

Because it can wreak havoc when the wrong buttons are pushed. HAMMER: Male, because it hasn't evolved much over the last 5,000 years, but … (2 comments)

real estate professionals: Short Sale Poems - 06/06/09 01:23 PM
Okay, just for fun, write down your feelings about short sales in a short poem or haiku. I realize that you're probably busier than a one-legged Riverdancer and can't rhyme like a rap star, but that's okay. Jot down a haiku. What is the proper haiku format? Haiku: a Japanese lyric verse form having three unrhymed lines of five, seven, and five syllables. You can give the poem a title, or not!
Example:
PoemI gave up my homeTrying to do a short saleAll was for nothing.Wish that loan rep was in jail!
Haiku#1Mystery bank ladyworking on my short saleNever calls me back.
Haiku#2 Mystery bank … (6 comments)

real estate professionals: Commitment and Consistency Helps People to Say "Yes" - 05/19/09 06:09 PM
Most salespeople would like to be more consistent at sales, and sometimes forget to use consistency with their customers. By this I mean that there is a basic psychological principal that states that most human beings like to think of themselves as being consistent. After all, if you had a choice, would you rather be known as "Mister Wishy-Washy?" Or "Mister Consistent?"
My guess is the latter.
So if I can get you to make a stand, and go on record for President X, for example, I will have set the stage to ask you to post a sign in your front yard. Once … (0 comments)

real estate professionals: Do You Follow the Rule of Fair Exchange? - 05/15/09 12:50 PM
One of the ways we get people to say "Yes" is by following the rule of fair exchange in both our business and personal lives.
In business, give more value than expected. Give more value than money exchanged. Give more value in hand-outs, phone calls, and other marketing efforts. For example, in real estate it's more than just handing out a flyer that announces, "Jeanni Jones closed another short sale. If you need help with short sales, call Jeanni Jones at 555-5555." Not that it's bad...
It's just that a better flyer might be: "Jeanni Jones closed another short sale. If … (0 comments)
