manhattan beach real estate: "I'm #1!"-- Being the #1 agent means what exactly? - 09/20/11 12:27 PM
Have you ever seen this line in a newspaper or website? “I’m the #1 agent!” or “Hire me, I am # 1!” Did you also happen to notice that line on almost every page of the Real Estate section?

manhattan beach real estate: The Pedigree of a New Home - 08/10/11 08:35 PM

They have the same parents, same upbringing, same household yet two kids from the same family and parents can often be completely opposite in personality and interests. New homes throughout the South Bay also can be as diverse, even though they have similar beginnings.
