cookeville real estate: Money doesn't grow on trees...Neither does good Realtors® - 04/22/09 05:54 PM
FIRST REALTY COMPANY~ SERVING OUR COOKEVILLE COMMUNITIES SINCE 1979 As our markets are ever changing, it can be a daunting task for a real estate agent to keep up with the market, new regulations, etc. Some agents who jumped into the business when the markets were up are retiring their license now. Why, because in an economic downturn, there are many things to consider when you are an active real estate agent. You can no longer just post a sign in the yard and have the home sold by 5 o'clock. As a flood of homes hit the market, especially foreclosures, a

cookeville real estate: Tips on Conserving Gasoline - 09/30/08 09:57 AM
Buy or fill up your car or truck ONLY in the early morning when the ground temperature is still cold. All service stations have their storage tanks buried below ground. The colder the ground the more dense is the gasoline fluid. When the gasoline in those tanks gets warmer the gasoline expands. Buying in the afternoon, or evening....that gallon is not exactly a gallon. In the petroleum business, the specific gravity and temperature of the gasoline, diesel and jet fuel, ethanol and other petroleum products included, plays a very important role. It's a big deal for this business if

Whether you are a new agent or seasoned, keeping tract of your goals is important in business. Setting goals is one thing, but keeping them takes focus and work.

I of course explained that sales volume is only a part of my goals in my business per year. I have a complete structured set of goals that help me make up the success
