realtors: Unethical agents - 06/21/10 11:38 PM
The market in San Diego has been heating up lately. Some areas are having bidding wars. Our office encountered some cases where, the buyers' agents, in order to get sellers to accept their offers, would say in the contract that their buyers are going conventional financing. After sellers accept their offers, they would then switch to FHA financing without the sellers knowing...until it is too late. Deals end up not closing because property cannot appraise, or deals are delayed for weeks.
Unfortunately for the sellers, the other offers that were on the table were long gone...
I wonder if this is … (15 comments)

realtors: wordpress or activerain? - 05/28/10 09:11 PM
I just attended a introductory social media class at our San Diego Realtor Association. One of the few ideas I picked up was sign up with wordpress, host your own site. I have always thought to put all my blog contents on activerain, believing with all these realtors blogging, it will bring my blogs to the top of search engines. The instructor explain that on activerain, you don't owe your contents, whereas wordpress you do. Their suggestion is to post some on activerain, so you have a presence, but keep your contents on wordpress. I am not sure how true that is, … (9 comments)

realtors: A Realtor in my area is very upset at me! - 05/19/08 06:48 PM
Part of my recruiting campaign, I send out eflyers to Realtors in my area every month. I received an email today from a Realtor, the email wrote, "REMOVE ME FROM YOUR DAMN MAILING LIST! I AM NOT INTERESTED IN YOUR COMPANY!"(emphasis added)  So, I emailed him back to apologise for upsetting him and told him to scroll down to the bottom of the flyer and click on the unsubcribe me link. He replied and said he has done it a couple of times but still getting my email. My last email to him was that I will check with the eflyer … (36 comments)

realtors: Get pay more for BPOs...You deserve it! - 05/03/08 07:52 PM
I have done a handful of BPOs and still consider myself new in the BPO industry. About two weeks ago, I received my first order from PCV MURCOR. It was a interior BPO and paid $60. I took it and submitted the BPO before the due date(I want to shine since it's my first with this company). A couple days later, a Friday, they called me for a rush order, due Saturday at noon. I asked how much they are paying, she said $60. I said no, can you pay $85, she said yes, and without much hesitation. I turned in … (17 comments)

realtors: Make sure your loan officer has done FHA loans before! - 04/22/08 07:54 PM
Just last week, one of my newer agent came to me all excited because he got his first buyer who is FHA approved. And, not only that, they have found a condo they love, ready to put in an offer. I congratulated him and somehow I happen to ask him if the condo was FHA approved. He was shocked and said the loan officer did not mention anything about condo projects needing FHA approvals! So I went to the FHA website to see if his condo was approved. Low and behold, his condo's not approved. That's mean now they need to … (13 comments)

realtors: Ever get frustrated with your broker? - 04/20/08 06:51 PM
Before I started my own company, I worked with one of the big guys, for the purpose of this blog, I will call it the Rock. Mind you, since I have been in the business a long time, I usually just do my own thing. Once in a while, I run into problem or a question and I would need the manager's help. My manager would always diligently write my problem on his yellow legal pad and tell me he will get back to me. BUT HE NEVER DID! I ALWAYS HAD TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM MYSELF!

realtors: I need to get over 5000 points... - 04/19/08 08:21 PM
Ok, so I am only posting this post so I can get past 5000 points! You can see I am kind of an AR addict! I am pretty proud of myself since I am relatively new! 5000 is a milestone!

All honesty, I have found so much helpful info here that I have over and over again recommended to my agents!

realtors: Don't wait to buy! the market is starting to pick up - 04/11/08 08:02 PM
Just this past couple of weeks I am seeing more activites in the market. Buyers are writing offers instead of "just looking", investors are out snapping up bargains...Multiple offers on REO properties...This is really exciting. My agents are writing more offers! All these gloom and doom talk in the media is not true!! On top of that, a lot of agents have left the industry, meaning those few of us left will be on top of the game when the good time rolls full force at us! … (5 comments)

Recently I have been getting many bpo orders from Mark to Market and Mainstreetval. Can't say the same for the paid subcription companies. I am wondering if it has anything to do with where you are located? I have since posting that said they are doing well with some of these paid subcription places.
