** Palm Centro: VERY LOW on BATTERY!! - 05/30/08 12:19 PM
I just bought a new phone with a 30-day trial with Sprint and I'm having mixed feelings now. I got the Palm Centro. It is a very nice phone but there is one big problem with it. The battery drains so quickly that I seemed to be constantly charging it. I don't even use the web that often and the battery still drains fast.
Does anyone else have a recommendation? I may look at the 3 phones below as a possible switch over if I don't like the Palm Centro.
BLACKBERRY
The Blackberry Pearl looks nice and slim but I heard … (12 comments)

** Realtors, STOP STEALING MY LEADS!!! - 05/22/08 10:53 AM

Don't steal my listing! This is what one agent in the office said.
I know of one agent in the office who advertises his services in the local newspaper. He does not have any listing of his own so he goes around the office asking other agents to give him their listings so he can advertise it on the paper. Some agents are reluctant to give it because they feel it is their own listing and why should they give it out.
Does anyone also do this and if so how effective is it? Do you get objections from other … (12 comments)

** Are you getting these BOGUS REFERRAL LEADS?? - 05/22/08 10:40 AM

I don't know if it is only me but has anyone also been getting these Referral Leads sent to their email account. These are 'supposedly' referral leads from other AR members. It states that it is a referral lead but when you click on the link, it is merely more about advertising their services instead.
One link I had said that there is a 25% referral fee. They will pay you if you sent them a buyer for their property listing. Another said they have a client who is looking to buy a home in a certain area and if … (4 comments)

** Happy Father's day! - 05/11/08 02:58 PM

No, that is not me in the picture...but I just wanted to take a moment and wish everyone a Happy Father's Day. It happens only once a year but it should be thought of every day. A few of my friends have raised their kids and it is not an easy task. It takes alot of hard work, discipline, and the dedication and love put into watching them grow up is quite remarkable.
No, it is not a typo. :) It is Mother's Day but I realized that there are some fathers out there who raise their kids themselves. In a way, … (10 comments)

** 40% DOWN and my offer was rejected!! ** - 05/11/08 12:24 PM

I am shocked. I had submitted an offer for my client last week on an REO property and it was rejected.
My client had 40% DOWN, FICO of 780, income of 150k, DU approval letter, proof of down payment, close in 30 days. This is a VERY SOLID buyer. We even offered FULL PRICE! The price was market value. The market is not as bad as people make it out to be as this is a great time to buy.
After submitting the offer, we found that there are multiple offers on the house. The bank then countered the offers. … (30 comments)
