I had been jotting down notes, preparing to write a post: Selling Tip #2 when I came across this post by Danilo Bogdanovic. Danilo is an agent in Ashburn, VA - but I believe strongly, in this case, your location doesn't matter.

Do you have your SRS designation? Don't forget about the SRS group here on Active Rain! - 08/18/08 11:38 PM
I recently received my SRS - Seller Representation Specialist designation. I've always enjoyed the process of listing a property - and of course selling it. Therefore, this seemed like a natural designation for me to work towards.
What an awesome class - Bruce Aydt did not disappoint.
After coming back from class, I immediately had to search out Active Rain. I quickly found what I was looking for!
Christina Ethridge created an Active Rain SRS group in 2007.
Christina sums up the group:

Georgia and Missouri Realtors Ask: Is real estate REALLY local? - 08/18/08 10:04 PM
Those of you that know me, know that I read - a lot.
I read books, novels, magazines and blogs. I read the back of the cereal boxes and I read the local newspaper.
Every once in a while I come across a blog that prompts the old "Boy, I wish I wrote that." Of course, that is because I am usually agreeing with the author.
In this case the author is Lane Bailey, REALTOR & Car Guy from Georgia. (the state not the country)
I often find myself in this discussion with people - yes, real estate is local and … (2 comments)

How Does Housing Recovery Act change buying Missouri Real Estate? - 08/15/08 11:31 PM
I've been doing a lot of reading lately on The Housing and Economic Recovery Act. If you haven't already taken a look, there is a ton of information and many components of the Act.
My United Country partner in Vermont, Irene Gaffigan, recently summarized the Recovery Act. While Irene makes reference to Ludlow and Okemo Mountain VT home buyers, this information also applies to buyers in the Lebanon, Marshfield and Buffalo areas of Missouri.
Thanks to Irene for such a great summary! After reading Irene's post, I do believe there are some strong points in the Act which will assist those … (0 comments)

Cubs win! Could this be the year? - 08/02/08 11:56 PM
I am not a huge baseball fan. I'll go on record on the world wide web to tell you - I don't really understand the game. You either hit the ball or you don't. I've been told there is more to it than this, but I just don't "get it."
But, being from the Chicago-land area, born and raised up there, I have a soft spot in my heart for the Chicago Cubs. They go through so much, year after year.
As of today, they are ahead of Milwaukee by 4 games, ahead of St. Louis by 5 games.

Seth Godin's "Triiibes" could be as addictive as Active Rain! - 08/01/08 11:57 PM
I think I may be in big trouble!
Sharon Simms mentioned Seth Godin's new site, "Tribes" a day or so ago. At that time I had also received my invitation but had not done anything with it.
I finally got around to looking at it tonight - and, boy oh boy - sleep is going right out the window.
Very similar to Active Rain, Triiibes is set up on the premise of just that - we all lead our own "tribes." Be it our family, our employees, our civic groups. We interact with tribal characteristics. We band together to get the … (43 comments)

Lenders don't want to lend money in today's market! - 08/01/08 08:52 PM
I am convinced - without a doubt - lenders do not know what they are looking for in a client. Under writing rules and guidelines seem to not only be changing daily but during the day as well. I am almost convinced that lenders do not want to lend money.
We have buyers!
We have buyers with money down!
We have buyers with strong credit scores!
We don't have a lender that will finance these purchases!
This week alone, we've had two situations where the lenders have come back multiple times, asking for more items or in Fiasco … (8 comments)
