Social Media Buttons and Icons - Is Someone Pushing Your Buttons?
During these past few weeks, since adding the "Signature" option to ActiveRain posts, I've received so many requests, calls, and emails regarding how to add "Social Media Buttons and Icons" to the footers of Blog Posts. You've probably seen many of the various types and styles other members are using on their Blogs which poses the question, "Where Are They Getting These?" Here's some sites I've found that offer you these custom buttons for FREE. This includes for personal and commercial use according to their terms and guidelines.
Here are some Links to Literally Thousands of Buttons and Icons:
Instructions For Adding Buttons and Icons to the Signature or Footer of Posts:
Once you've downloaded the Social Media Buttons or Icons of your choice, you can add them to your AR Signature Page (including the appropriate links) by going to your "My Home" page on AR, then select the "Settings" link on the left hand sidebar. Just upload the button or icon into the "Signature" section of the page, add the appropriate link to your image, then click "update" to save. That's it!
One tip I would suggest is to be careful which Icons you select for some of the Social Networking Sites. If the Icon or Button isn't a familiar looking one, then visitors might be less likely to click on it. For example, the cow face, what Social Network or site does that one belong to? Maybe visitors would click on it just to find out? (LOL~) With all these Buttons and Icon styles available, one thing for certain is that your signature can be unique. So have FUN!!
This should give you plenty of options and creative ways to stand out from the rest of the crowd. :-)

Yes, it looks like the governement is going to extend and also expand the first time home buyers program that gives up to $8,000 back to first time home buyers. This is good news for everyone, buyers, sellers and the economy. It also helps out the jobless and small businesses too.

Lately, I have been showing a few clients around the Eureka, CA area in search of homes and properties for sale that are "bank owned" or REOs or in other words, foreclosed properties. It is easy to search and find the best foreclosure properties for my clients because I also do what are called Broker's Price Opinions or BPOs for banks and companies requesting my services to estimate the value of a home before putting it on the market as a foreclosed listing. With this insight into potential and future foreclosed properties, I am able to assess what might be coming up on the market and will soon become a foreclosed listing.
During the past year, I have noticed more and more properties and homes for sale by banks because they are not able to sell them at auction, and so, the banks are responsible for having these properties cleaned and de-trashed, then finding a good broker that does BPOs to get an idea of how much the home should sell for in the current market, so that they are able to make more informed decisions about how much the property should be listed for.
I love working in real estate and working on both sides of the equation, both getting that Broker's Price Opinion for the banks, lendors and anyone who requests a BPO in the Eureka area, and also, being able to show my clients these foreclosed properties later on, when I know that I have already conducted an analysis of the market value of the property and know the property inside out.
If you are an investor or first time home buyer in the Eureka California area, or if you are a lender who is looking for an expert to conduct BPOs or list your REO's, please feel free to contact me and I will do my best to help you in your real estate related guidance and requests.

Well, it has been very nice weather for the past several weeks with no major rain storms. I just received an update from one of my Eureka CA weather contacts that the weather is about to change.
Yesterday, the Eureka National Weather Service office advised they are expecting a rain event to move in Monday night continuing into Tuesday.
Most rain will fall to the south of Humboldt County, but, we are still looking at 3-4 inches of rain possible in the Eel River Basin. No flooding is expected and rivers may rise 3-5 feet. It will be windy at 20-30 mph along the coast with stronger winds in exposed areas and hilltops. There may be some localized flooding in small creeks and urban flooding near storm drains. For the most up-to-date event information, you should monitor the NWS Eureka web site at http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/eka/

Today was a good day. I have just showed a house tonight to a couple who plan on using the $8000 government tax credit to help with their purchase. I'm happy they will be able make their offer on their first house with this help. I have known the couple for a couple years now and they have had to keep saving and saving for their down payment, but family emergencies kept taking that dream away from them.
I am happy that this program to help home buyers is still available, at least until December. I think that buyers who are still hesitating should make their move now and purchase a home before this program ends.

I just got my first Iphone yesterday at the local ATT store. I was hesitant at first becuase in my home town area of Eureka, CA in Humboldt County, ATT had just moved into our area about a year ago and I was afraid that its service would not be as good as the cell provider that I have been with for the past 4 years, US Cellular. But all the applications that one can do with the Iphone intriged me enough to finally make the plunge and go for it. (I still have service with my current provider, but there is a 30 day money back garantee with ATT, so if I do not like my Iphone, unlikely now, I can cancel service).
So last night and and today I have been downloading Iphone aps like crazy. They have aps for everything! There are about 30,000 free Iphone aps and 60,000 more pay for ones. I discovered that there are a handfull of applications for Realtors and buyers and sellers in general. There are applications from Zillow, real estate dot com, Homes.com and more. There are even Realtor made aps for clients to contact them. I am still exploring and although the data service is spotty at times, all the package of the Iphone and what it allows me to do while on the go is worth it.
Please share your experiences with the Iphone. I am curios to know whether other agents prefer the Iphone or the Black Berry. There are certainly pros and cons.
For more Iphone questions, please contact me below:

I have just finally finished connecting my home Internet system using an Internet router/modem that I had to connect myself. I almost gave up trying, but I kept persistent at it and as you can see, I am now online blogging about it.
So what I learned from this experience is that, no matter how many times you fail, always keep trying and do not give up, because on the last try that you give up, is when you are about to achieve your goals. This can be translated into real estate sales, or helping your buyer find that dream home, or helping your seller to sell their house in this down market. Always keep trying and you will succeed.
