real estate: How are prices in your area? - 11/26/07 04:08 PM
I just posted a new article on my blog at www.lockboxdeals-blog.com about bottoming out of prices. A new survey by the NAR shows some areas on the upswing and some lower than last year. Give us a shout out about your area, and if it is a great time for investors, post those free listings at www.lockboxdeals.com. Thanks Lisa

real estate: Using Amazon reviews to increase your expert status - 09/11/07 01:07 PM
If you are reading this, then I am sure that you know how important it is for anyone involved in real estate to have a substantial presence on the internet. One useful - and free - resource to increase your reach is to write reviews on Amazon.com. By reviewing books on real estate, you can find new customers, prove your knowledge of your subject area, and increase your internet ranking. You can also create a profile and reference your own website in your signature line, offering you another source of traffic for your site.

real estate: Selling houses on eBay? - 08/29/07 11:35 AM
I had a new property uploaded to my listing site, www.lockboxdeals.com, for $4,990. That's right, under $5,000 for a home. Not the downpayment price, the total sales price. When I followed the link, it led me to eBay! There are many houses listed on eBay for auction, some with no reserve and bids starting at $1, some as classified advertisements that list a more traditional price. Has anyone ever tried this method for selling a house in a hard to sell area? I've tried to follow through on a couple of the listings to see if the final sales price was comparable to

real estate: Have you googled....you? - 07/31/07 11:11 AM
In real estate, perhaps more than in other professions, image is important. Realtors recognize the importance of a professional appearance and demeanor in person, but how about your online image? One tip that I picked up and regularly follow is to Google your own name periodically. With the abundance of posting and social networking sites now, you may find unflattering or even untruthful comments about you on sites of importance in the industry. When a potential client searches you on the internet, these comments could make the difference between winning a new client - and commission - or losing. If you find untruthful

real estate: Hello, Canada! - 07/30/07 12:45 PM
When I first posted information about our Realtor-friendly, investor-targeted listing site http://www.lockboxdeals.com/ on Active Rain, an anonymous member asked if we would open it up to Canadian listings. So I hope you are reading, because we have done just that! Realtors from the US AND Canada can now post listings for free on our site. We target investors, and in addition to the standard location/price search features, we have unique searches for Value, Financing, Spectacular, Unique, and Green properties. In addition to your listings, feel free to upload articles to educate our visitors about the great real estate market in Canada. The research I

real estate: New school year a goldmine for Realtors! - 07/25/07 12:46 PM
I admit, before kids and before real estate, I never even looked at a school calendar. The only time I ever even considered the school year was if I got stuck in a school zone traffic jam. But now that my oldest is starting pre-school, I can't believe that the start date is coming up so soon. Our school starts August 14, others in our area are starting August 21. So for Realtors, it is definitely time to feature those properties that are languishing in the real estate MLS listings that happen to be in good school zones. Three or four weeks may not

real estate: Free listings! No Catch! Really! - 07/18/07 03:53 PM
When I tell Realtors that they can post ten deals on my site, www.lockboxdeals.com, for free, they almost always ask me, "What's the catch?" There isn't any catch! Unlike other pay-to-list sites, our site is ad-supported, so Realtors can list their properties for free! We ask that deals fall into one of our unique search categories - Value, Financing, Spectacular, Unique, or Green (our newest category!). Visit our articles - and submit articles! - section for additional information. And don't forget to vote for your own listings - even refer your clients to vote. If your listing makes it into our Top Ten Deals

real estate: Realtor Friendly Listing Service - 07/13/07 03:17 PM
I've read a lot in the blogosphere lately about internet real estate listing services that are not, to put it delicately, Realtor friendly. Some seek to cut out the agent entirely. I've even seen the comment at Bloodhound that some may do for Realtors what Expedia did to travel agents. I want to assure the Active Rain community that our site, www.lockboxdeals.com, is entirely built around the Realtor! Create a free account, post your ten best deals for free, and receive free publicity for your listings. You even get the added benefit of additional inbound links to your site!

real estate: Optimize your listings for iPhone - 07/11/07 02:52 PM
I read an interesting article about expectations that a significant number of people will conduct real estate searches from their new iPhones. For those agents who depend on their websites for new clients - that should be everyone by now, right? - it will be important to make sure your sites are compatible with Safari, the web browser used by Apple on the iPhone. When I called my web designer to make sure he tests out our listing service, www.lockboxdeals.com, on Safari, he further informed me that it is important to make sure that you like how your site and listings look

real estate: New Search Options are the Future of Real Estate Listings - 07/10/07 10:30 AM
As a real estate investor, I grew tired of paging endlessly through MLS listings, by zip code, to try to find one property that might be a good investment. With gas prices rising higher and higher, driving around neighborhoods started eating into renovation budgets. Although I tried, I could not find a better way. That's when I decided to create a better way, for myself and other investors. What began as my own personal mission to increase my real estate holdings grew into www.lockboxdeals.com. LockBoxDeals offers investors and realtors benefits to jumpstart sales and investments in this sluggish market. Rather than list every
