The Challenge of Challenges - 06/08/11 08:39 AM
The challenge of challenges here on ActiveRain is akin to those we encounter everyday in our new landscape of real estate and what we often call life. The differenence is the challenges here in the rain are often limited to the ubiquitous 30 or 31 days determined by the month of the challenge.

Think Big! Dream! Then take the time it takes to make a difference in how you sell real estate.

The internet and the mobile technologies moved the advertising business of buying and selling homes online to the gigantic real estate portals of realtor.com, trulia, zillow, yahoo and numerous corporate brands. Newspapers and magazines can not compete with the cost-savings and timely distribution of real estate information. … (11 comments)

I am still thinking about real estate advertising and copy writing after digesting the news about the weather in the East, the stock market dip and of course the latest headlines on the new normal of real estate prices.
