The NWMLS recently advised its members "be selective when sending out emails regarding your listings to other members and agents" noting numerous complaints from members receiving unwanted emails from other members regarding listings.

real estate: Real Estate related bankruptcies - 12/03/07 12:48 PM
Over the weekend the news media reported better than a 10% increase of bankruptcy filings this year in Oregon and Washington State, attributing them to builders, contractors and developers suffering from mortgage market woes.

I'm curious if many agents are getting results from DRIP marketing campaigns. (results in the form of closed transactions)
