sellers: Are you an educated decision or an impulse buy? - 02/25/09 09:29 AM

Has the Internet made an negative impact on how we list and sell homes? Do we just give up too much with the Internet for buyers and sellers? Is it too easy for buyers and sellers to scan the Internet and find what they want without ever calling an agent? With all … (2 comments)

sellers: "Thank you for your e-mail. You're not important" - 08/14/08 04:38 PM

"Your e-mail is important to me. Typically I read and respond to e-mail between the hours of 11:00am - 12:00pm and then again between 5:00pm - 6:00pm"
Is their e-mail important, really? What part of, "I'll get back to you when it's convenient for me", says, "You're important"? I see … (7 comments)

sellers: Open House - Open Website - 05/09/08 12:41 PM

How many countless Sundays have you spent sitting in your open house and either reading or using that time to "catch up" while individuals stroll through your listing? I know that we always jump up when we hear the crack of the door to make sure that we provide a … (2 comments)

sellers: Are you a doorway or a doormat? - 02/13/08 02:10 PM

"New home sales plummet."
"Housing industry lowest in 20 years."
"Foreclosure rates skyrocket."
A homeowner reading the newspaper or watching the national news these days wouldn't think they had a chance if they wanted to sell. On the flip-side, seeing these headlines would make buyers think that it's close to impossible to get a … (5 comments)

sellers: When did homeowners start setting the price?! - 01/28/08 10:59 AM

(Stepping up on soap box)
So, I am watching HGTV over the weekend (my wife is absolutely addicted to this channel) and I walk in to catch this agent sitting down with a potential seller at lunch. It's all cute and quaint as they sit in this open cafe with the sun … (11 comments)

sellers: Working smarter and with less paper - 01/16/08 01:50 PM

Here's a question to the AR community...
I have a couple of buyers that I am working with. I set them up for auto-notifications of properties that meet their criteria that come on the market, have a price change, etc. My buyers will e-mail me for more information about a particular property … (5 comments)

sellers: Why having a website is no longer enough - 12/04/07 02:33 PM

Having a website is no longer enough
No matter how long you've been in the business, you've probably already started to find more and more of what I call "super-buyers" and "super-sellers". These were yesterday's buyers and sellers who are now armed with a vast array of information and education we've seldom … (4 comments)

sellers: Home Inspection - 06/21/07 12:03 PM

I am amazed at how many of my clients ask why they need a home inspection when it comes to them buying a home. Most of them ask not because of ignorance but because they look at it as a cost saving measure (inspections in Oklahoma typically run between $225 - … (0 comments)

sellers: Create the best direct mail piece your prospects will see all week - 06/20/07 11:15 AM

What goes into an effective direct mailing? Stick to these seven suggestions and your piece will stand out among the junk.
Personalize. "Dear Neighbor" simply does not get the response "Dear Kathy" does. Use the word "you" liberally. Those are "musts"; if practical and you've drilled down this far on your … (0 comments)

sellers: Why do I get real estate leads from the web? - 06/19/07 02:56 PM

Why do I get real estate leads from the web?
I talk to no less than 20 agents a day. "That's about normal with showings and cross-selling", you say? Nope, not for me. You see, I'm that "techie guy" in the office. So I've made a lot of friends in the industry … (4 comments)
