I mean, why would folks ever risk working with an agent they found online - when they have trustworthy experts directly at their disposal? Turns out there are a lot of reasons... Here are some tips you can forward to them to convey why they should choose you instead. … (0 comments)
opinion: Frenemies With Technology.

Our VP of Sales and Marketing, Tawd Frensley, has graced us with another guest blog post - and, once again, gets a critical point across in his own unique, no-nonsense, and catchy way. Honestly, it's really easy to hate technology. Moreover, it's easy to hate technology when it is constantly being thrown in your face. Get this tablet, this phone, use this CRM, our SEO is better, yada yada yada....the list goes on and on. However, just like a friend is always there for you, good technology can be your friend. Patient, Understanding, Dependable, and Attentive to your needs are a few of the basic traits of a … (4 comments)

Question your referrals: who, what, when, where, why, and how. Step 1 "Who": Segment your database into 2 groups: People WHO have referred you business the past 5 years and the one's that haven't (yet!) Step 2 "What": WHAT was your last form of communication with the referring group (email, text, phone call, post card)? Step 3 "When": WHEN did the referral occur in relation to the last form of communication (hint: client received your email and 4 days later referred a friend to you)? Step 4 "Where": Look at your relationship with each referring client, WHERE did your relationship come from (family, friends, past co-workers, … (0 comments)
Here's a question... Is free really free? Or better yet, is free good enough? Your broker, bless their heart, provides you with a website for your business. It's obviously not free (you either pay for it a part of your desk fees or it is taken out of your transactions). Yet, you still call it free (I guess because you are not physically paying for it on your own). It has MLS search and the ability to email clients, sure, but is it good enough? It may cost nothing (other than … (6 comments)

opinion: We need your help. What's the best way to display/describe bathrooms?
- 05/01/14 08:07 AM
We here at the PropertyMinder team are trying to choose what is the best way to display and describe the bathroom details on Featured/Office Listings pages, search results, custom IDX pages, Hot Lists, and property details pages. Some areas simply use "half bath" as the term for a partial bathroom. Others use "quarter bath," and "three-quarter baths." Please let us know, by answering the question below, what you think would be the best way to explain the bathroom details of a home. We would so appreciate hearing your opinion so that we can make the best decision (as agreed upon by the majority of all … (0 comments)
Do you agree? Why? Why not? What has changed for you over the years?
"Consumers are no longer looking for just information from a real estate agent. The agents who will dominate their markets in the future are those that embrace the concept that they need to be a counselor not just facilitator; an expert in the market to whom consumers can turn for advice on difficult or complex real estate decisions.
