out of the box: Can Cyber Monday be just as successful in real estate as it is for stores? I'm going to try to find out! - 11/30/09 09:21 AM

Can a Cyber Monday sale work in real estate? Well, today I think I'm going to find out. You see last Friday was Black Friday and I thought I would try to have a Black Friday open house. It was a huge success (Read about it here) But, then we thought, how can we take this online like the stores do and will it have the same success.
 
It is now 7am here on the west coast and I'm just waiting for the paperwork! I have a 2nd seller that saw my … (17 comments)

out of the box: Unlocking the door to your buyers dream home - 12/21/08 01:57 PM
When you bought your last home, how was it unlocking that door for the first time? For most of us it was when we were looking at the home as our own possible purchase. It was at the moment when we first popped our head in the door that we knew this was our home. It had what we were looking for, it had a feel that the others we had looked at just didn't have.
This home had the same layout, same yard size, same everything, but something was different. Was it that that bathroom door opened to the left … (12 comments)

out of the box: Oh, this family has got it down! How to get your foreclosure offer accepted - 12/04/08 02:12 PM
I ran into an agent that works with an investor who buys foreclosures and he has had great success getting his offers accepted. I had to ask, "HOW DO YOU GET SO MANY ACCEPTED?"
Well, her answer surprised the heck out of me, but it made perfect sense and the results spoke for themselves. What this buyer was doing was putting 5 offers in at the same time on the same property. But, not all in his name, one was in each of his family's names, but the highest was always in his name. He wanted to show the bank the … (21 comments)

out of the box: Maybe I should try the Maury way to expired listings - 09/18/08 08:37 AM
You know how he does paternity tests, he calls the potential daddy to the stage, opens an envelope, and then says, "Chuck, you are NOT the father"! Now, what if I took that same concept and went to the door of every expired listing.
I go to the door with a chair, sit down, ring the door bell, and when they open it, I pull out their old MLS printout and say, "Here I have the result of your home being sold and I'm sorry to say it did not."
Wait, wait... I got it! I could put someone with a … (25 comments)

out of the box: I wrote a joke post last year and now it has become a niche for some - 09/11/08 03:58 PM
Last year I wrote a post, "I WILL NOT DO IT - I guess I'm not a friend of the environment (Sorry)" and now I see the Associated Press has done an article on an agent doing exactly what I said I wouldn't do.
There is a company in Boulder, Colorado called Pedal to Properties and this is all they do! I'm sorry, you are not going to see my fat butt on the seat of a bike riding around with clients, no matter how high gas prices get.

To me it was still a joke post, but I'm glad … (22 comments)
