What Did You Expect From the Tax Credit? - 05/25/10 08:30 AM
I was reading an article about a recent jump in home sales attributed to the Home Buyers Tax Credit. I saw that there were 4 comments, and always curious what people think when it comes to real estate, I scrolled down. The following comment had been submitted (location specifics have been removed): Since January I’ve had my immaculate condo for sale located in a safe, affluent suburb in XXXX just a short distance from XXXX. Despite being on the MLS I’ve had a grand total of 4 people through and no offers. Since the tax credit did my situation no good … (3 comments)

The $20 Item that Made The Whole Family Happy! - 05/23/10 11:32 AM
Everyone has that one light that no one ever remembers to switch off. Depending on where it is, it can become a bone of contention or a huge energy waster as it burns brightly long after the person using it has left the room. Our problem light was our mud-room overhead. Being our catch-all place (think backpacks, water bottles, shoes, carry-out menus, etc.) and the last stop before heading in to the garage, it was not unusual for a family member to switch on the light, find what they needed and pull the door shut behind them---AND LEAVE ON THE LIGHT. … (17 comments)

Don't Tell Us What We Want to Watch... - 05/18/10 07:53 AM
It kind of caught us all by surprise, but YouTube--that upstart little website--now has as many daily viewers as  the prime time viewership of the 3 television networks  combined.
Turns out that we would rather watch a 3 year old who is on meds after going to the dentist or a local acapella group perform than a mindless sitcom or old stars dancing (last week I watched my daughter's College Final's Week Library 'Rave').
The technology paradigm continues to shift like quicksand below our feet. I don't think anyone is surprised that the networks have been 'beaten;' that has been a … (7 comments)

Am I a Sales Rep? - 05/07/10 12:01 PM
As a Real Estate Broker, there is no doubt that my activity is counted in number of Sales and the way of keeping score is my Volume.  These rubrics are the same as for any other Sales Person. But would you consider me a Sales Representative?
I have been communicating with a potential client who tells me that one of the issues with their prior listing is that there was no one to 'close the deal.'  I have spent plenty of time in corporate marketing and understand that sort of 'sales rep' speak. It really got me thinking about the role … (3 comments)
