 I am subscribed to many industry newsletters and blogs.  One of my favorites (beside this site of course) is Inman News and its editorial project: Roadmap to Recovery.

Halloween is well over but I am still enjoying a special "treat" that I received from a local Real Estate Agent.  This agent went "trick or treating" to homes in St Augustine delivering bags of treats.  Treats such as maps, restaurant guides, buying and selling tips as well as a "Mightygrip", you know those round rubber discs that you keep in your kitchen junk drawer?   This one is personalized with the agents name and contact information.
