Well, it certainly has been a while! I'm so overdue to post and so many things have happened, I'm not sure where to begin! Thankfully, if I may be permitted the use of the term: "It's all good!" I've been so busy showing and negotiating, it feels like 2004, my best … (4 comments)

hermosa beach homes for sale: Hermosa Sand Section - 09/12/07 11:32 AM

I consider myself a relative newbie with regard to posting here on AR. During the time I've been getting acquainted with protocol, I've noticed polar opposite opinions on announcing listings in blog posts, whether it is the proper forum, etc.

hermosa beach homes for sale: A Sign of the Times - 09/07/07 01:47 PM

Here's a question I'm really interested to hear some feedback on.
Your yard signs... whose number is on it, yours, or your brokers?
