Blogging on ActiveRain if you sign up you should blog! - 01/10/09 05:57 PM
I did a count for our office and we have about 35 people out of 100+ people who are registered on ActiveRain.  Out of the 35 only 10(less than) have a score above 700, and 50% of those will not actively post.
What about the 25 people who have lower scores.  I know they don't post, I will wager they have forgotten their password maybe even their user-names.
If you are a registered user
you should post. you comment. you should grow your presence on the web otherwise you wasting an oportunity to earn some advertising presence through the internet. I … (12 comments)

Protect your name - 01/09/09 09:26 PM
I have a fellow realtor who ran into a problem with a YELP review from some one who was not their client.  The review present this capable agent in a very poor like and went as far as to say she was an uncaring person.
The writer of the blog was a tenant and just didn't want to leave the property.  The complaint was she didn't get money to help her move.
I think it is a joke that this happened but now the review is up and yelp won't remove it.  hope it doesn't have to go to legal

Remote Locks (what about our lock boxes) - 01/09/09 05:26 PM
Schlage Lock company has come up with an internet linked electronic key system.  It would allow people to use PDA and access the lock or to change the combo on the door.

Not a bad Idea but if somehow you had a listing with it and your PDA phone could work like a lock box key that would be great.

Craigslist a Cheaper Alternative - 01/08/09 11:22 PM
I have been a photography nut for a while.  I purchased many cameras from stores or online.  With the sight down turn in the economy I decided to look for a new camera body on craigslist.org.  To my delight I found a used Canon Xsi for around 400 body only, with all items and box.  I tested it and found it to be just what i was looking for and at a bit over $325.  This is still a lot of money but a great deal.
One cut back stragety is to purchase some good used items instead of new.  I have … (14 comments)

I have a mini computer that I have been carting around to do business with.  In addition I also have a PDA phone.  This years CES has a cool mini computer from OQO.  It looks awesome and with internet I can see running most of by business from it.  especially if I meet with clients or have to chat online with them.

 
Can you see in two or three years as Wifi become more common Realestate migrating to this format?

What do you want the big discount or a realtor who can do the job? - 01/07/09 05:45 PM
I received a floor call from potential buyers.  We spoke for a while and I qualified them as serious buyers.  We made an appointment to look at a house that was very similar to what they wanted.
During the process we talked about making the offer and out of the blue they had a realtor (a relative).  This one question is something I go over every time and I know they said they did not have one.
I politely told them that if they were planning to use their relative them we should end our discussions here and that the person … (15 comments)

Magazines are they getting thinner - 01/02/09 04:50 PM
I see that the Homes and Land and Homes.com magazines are getting really really thin. The people are the same and I don't see anything new about them. The photos change but the message is the same. I am wonder how much of your business or leads are generated from magazines. Has there been a drop or has or is it the same as it has always been. I started in the business over 3 years ago and i had people call on magazine adds before but in the past year i have only fielded one call asking about a Homes … (11 comments)
