commercial property: Seriously, I Just Got This Email Regarding Commercial Real Estate - 06/10/10 05:41 PM
You know why people hate real estate agents? Because there's a perceived notion out there that real estate agents are all after the commission without regard to whether or not the purchase (or sale) is right for the CLIENT.I want to share with you an email I just received that drives home exactly that.

It's a fact, and I'll tell you why.  The 20-year fixed interest rate … (0 comments)

commercial property: New "Click to Call" Feature Looks Great So Far - 01/16/08 02:14 PM
On Saturday, I implemented a "Click-to-Call" feature on my website at www.vegasnnn.com. I'm sure you've seen them - the graphics that say "click here to talk to me right now" or something to that effect.
