    <description>I love forums --- I learn alot by communicating not just with real agents, but other professionals within the real estate industry and most importantly, continuing a dialogue with part and present clients, and those who are not looking for an agent but would just like to ask a question or two.</description>

      <title>Stop Excessive Days On Market Before It Starts</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Why do some homes sell the first week on the market, yet there is 10 months of inventory for sale? Fifty percent (50%) of the time is because it is the nicest home of the bunch. The other fifty percent (50%) of the time is because...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;...the home is priced exactly right! And actually, it's the combination of both factors --- the nicest home of the bunch and priced right; to offer the best deal for the money as oppose to all others.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now we also know the home could meet both criteria, and still not sell because of location, because of color in carpets, walls, etc. But the general rule is, if the home is priced right and is free of defects, meets or beats all competition in street appeal, and all other factors are equal, then it will sell first!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But what really motivates the author to write this article, is that most sellers (as well as their listing agents) have a tendency to price their homes above true market value. The 2008-2009 markets clearly warns sellers, not to be in denial about market conditions. But agents and sellers continue to defy the tea leaves never the less, pricing homes too high, and for too long, and end up on the market for over 180 days and no buyers touring the property for months! Does your listing resemble that remark?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The author advocates that owners, facing an eventual foreclosure, could sell beforehand, if sellers would just focus on cutting their equity rather than holding out to the last for above market profits.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;High inventory levels, combined with weak lending activity, does not yield a lot of motivated buyer, let alone those who are qualified. However, as an owner, and a listing agent, there is a lot you could be doing to attract the buyers that are in fact out there; by improving the marketability of the listing, and thus effectively bringing it to the top of the competition.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Give this idea a try --- if this doesn't work, nothing will!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This up front solution, could change the whole dynamics of real estate. It could rapidly send inventory, to much lower levels, in no time, especially if agents and sellers would follow the following guidelines!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Agent and Sellers, agree to follow these steps and you will get results:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;---&lt;strong&gt;Sellers, if you have been on the market for 180 days and your home hasn't sold&lt;/strong&gt;, get an immediate appraisal or cancel the listing, and stay off the market for at least 6 months, get an appraisal then, and list for that appraised price, and no more!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;---&lt;strong&gt;New Sellers&lt;/strong&gt; not on the market yet, but wanting to be, choose the listing agent of your choice, but only choose an agent who can provide you the names and addresses of potential buyers before you list. How many agents can do that? Every listing agent should be able to. If they can't, then they obviously not the agent for you.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;---&lt;strong&gt;New Sellers&lt;/strong&gt;, sign your listing agreement, subject to you, within 24 hours ordering an independent professional appraisal at sellers expense (and listing agent contributes to the seller, an appraisal rebate at closing), and upon notification of the appraised price, list the home for that price, otherwise cancel the listing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The applause meter isn't moving and I hear a lot of growling over what I just wrote. Well folks, plain and simple, if you want results, you have to do what others have not --- I'm telling you, if you want to move this market along at a much faster pace, it starts with putting appraisals ahead of the process rather than at the end!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;In 40 years I would be your toughest sell to&amp;nbsp;date!&amp;nbsp; I had a life long reputation for standing firm, after 27 years of service to my country.&amp;nbsp; My 15 years of real estate drew on that experience as a tough well tested and truely hardened &quot;negotiator&quot; ---&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Then one day, my office phone rang not long ago --- and this gent said an associate of mine had recommended he call me --- he went on to say, she said if I would give&amp;nbsp;him a few minutes of my time,&amp;nbsp;he could make it worth my while.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Oh ya, I learned that one in my 20's and I'm in my 60's today....so my 21,000th solitation call --- the typical 6-7 calls I get every given day of my life it seems.....I was going to hear the guy out, then chew him up and spit him out.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He asked me if I'd give him just a few minutes of my time --- and I said in reply, you have 10 minutes and that's it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Two and one half hours later, he had to go, and it was everything I could do to keep him from hanging up.&amp;nbsp; I was hungry for more --- and I have been passionate about his message ever since!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You see, I have a motto that has proven true, that day especially!&amp;nbsp; I tell my clients, I am not your average agent.&amp;nbsp; I will never give up and I will give you everything I can possible&amp;nbsp;endure, to enable you to&amp;nbsp;realize your real estate goal;&amp;nbsp;I will pursue our quest, as though I was the one realizing the dream!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Well guess what, within 48 hours --- I studied the facts about this company on my own --- I honestly didn't go to bed that night, but instead, got on the Internet and read every thing I could about this company.&amp;nbsp; What's behind it, who are the movers and shakers, etc etc etc ---- I made some day time calls and talked with 20-30 strangers, following up to testimonials, and just shaking them down one side and the other....&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I finally went to bed, woke up the next morning --- paced the floor for hours, and made the decision, the timing is perfect, the vision is exactly on track with what I always wanted to do (yes even at 61), and&amp;nbsp;because I have been in the top of my field all my life, this could be the most&amp;nbsp;rewarding opportunity I could ever be part of ---- &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BOTTOM LINE -&amp;nbsp;I joined Connect Realty!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Those who know me, can tell you I hit the ground running.&amp;nbsp; If you put my name in any search engine, you'll find me listed for pages, in every imaginable search engine.&amp;nbsp; Why?&amp;nbsp; Because I have a passion for this media.&amp;nbsp; And for 15 years I have hammered Internet like nobody you ever seen.&amp;nbsp; People who join my team will not only reap the rewards of those efforts, but I want to pass on a legacy that has sustained my business on these years --- something I have held close to my chest and not shared until now, when this company came along with its true spirit of cooperation and sharing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you are a Connect Realty Associate, join the New Group, Connect Real Nationwide&amp;nbsp;and share your stories, your thoughts, your testimonies.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you are working for another company (other than Connect Realty), please take time out and visit the site that will tell you the whole story as to why I made the switch so fast.&amp;nbsp; You too will be able to browse the site, check out the powerpoint presentation, and watch a video or two --- I will be totally shocked if you aren't calling me with questions!&amp;nbsp; And I hope you do --- because you'll find out I am NOT HIGH PRESSURE --- I am just flat out honest and will tell you like it is.&amp;nbsp; But be prepared for a life changing event ....&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Go to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.connectrealty-nationwide.com/&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;http://www.connectrealty-nationwide.com&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp; and please bookmark the page!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;One other thing before I go --- call me, I want to walk you through the income estimator....even if&lt;br /&gt;you already have seen it, you need to see the way I use it as it will blow your mind away when you see&lt;br /&gt;your earnings potential using low figures in a down market!&amp;nbsp; TRUST ME ON THIS - just give me a call&lt;br /&gt;at 425-344-2222 (let's hope I am not with a client when you do --- but I'll let you know if I am and will call you back as soon as I can)...Fair?&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>New Company Emerges Despite Challenging Markets</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Well there certainly is alot right about this company, CONNECT REALTY INC (check us out at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.connectrealty-nationwide.com&quot;&gt;www.connectrealty-nationwide.com&lt;/a&gt;). &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The company approach to this start up is gradual on purpose and I think we are all better by it.&amp;nbsp; I know as a recruiter we want to see everything to take place like overnight.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But we are the &quot;originators&quot; of this company --- the first to sign on....and with that comes the burden of frustration --- want this or that to happen like yesterday.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Expanding too rapidly and having haphazard systems in place is where most companies fail.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This company is different ---- there are countless people and unbeliveable hours, days, months (and yes, even years) that have been consumed at both the corporate and state levels of the organization to innovate change to a decades old business model that has outlived it's tenure.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Clients have evolved and changed but the industry hasn't, not at least, at the same pace.&amp;nbsp; And that is part of the problem.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;These are exciting times --- its a gutsy move to introduce a company like ours, during very challenging economic times....&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But think about it --- here's a company that advocates cost reduction in a huge way...Eliminating overhead and impacting&amp;nbsp;brokers and agents at only $200 a year to affiliate?&amp;nbsp; And $45 E&amp;amp;O insurance per transaction --- and that's it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;WOW...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Listen to this testimonial:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am a hard sale --- I about chewed up the Connect Agent who was trying to recruit me on a phone call not too long ago ---With 40 years management experience, I thought I had seen, done, and heard everything.&amp;nbsp; I sternly told the guy, you have exactly 10 minutes to tell me what you have to say, and then, I'm out of here...I get phone calls like this 4-5 times a day and I dont take kindly to solicitations on a business phone.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Well guess what ---- 10 minutes turned into 2.5 hours and it was all the guy could to convince me to get off the phone as he had other people he needed to call.&amp;nbsp; Hey Man -- I'm SOLD.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I was a 100% agent, leading my niche in the industry, and couldn't wait to get started.&amp;nbsp; And started I did --- hitting the ground running. And I will never look back!&amp;nbsp; - Beryl&amp;nbsp; (thank GOD this recruiter has since become a reliable friend!)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Just who is this company ---- well, check out this website:&amp;nbsp; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.connectrealty-nationwide.com&quot;&gt;http://www.connectrealty-nationwide.com&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And don't go there unless you are ready to spend some time on it...if it doesn't excite you, then its because you never really checked it out, or you didnt believe what you seen...especially the income estimator link...you've got to see the numbers --- they don't lie ---&amp;nbsp;it sure SOLD me and coountless other brokers and agentsa whoi have converted just since the company launched in April 2008.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you would like more information, go to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.connectrealty-nationwide.com&quot;&gt;www.connectrealty-nationwide.com&lt;/a&gt; or contact Beryl Gosney at &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:berylgosney@aol.com&quot;&gt;berylgosney@aol.com&lt;/a&gt;, or call 425-344-2222 12 NOON - 1 PM weekdays (except Wednedays).&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>No Desk Fees - No Franchise Fees - No Admin Fees -  No Kidding - Eliminate your Overhead!</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;In 40 years I would be your toughest sell to&amp;nbsp;date!&amp;nbsp; I had a life long reputation for standing firm after 27 years of service to my country.&amp;nbsp; My 15 years of real estate drew on that experience as a tough well tested and truely hardened &quot;negotiator&quot; ---&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Then one day, my office phone rang not long ago --- and this gent said an associate of mine had recommended he call me --- he went on to say, she said if I would give you a few minutes of my time, you could make it worth my while.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Oh ya, I learned that one in my 20's and I'm in my 60's today....so my 21,000th solitation call --- the typical 6-7 calls I get every given day of my life it seems.....I was going to hear the guy out then chew him up and spit him out.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He asked me if I'd give him just a few minutes of my time --- and I said in reply, you have 10 minutes and that's it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Two and one half hours later, he had to go and it was everything I could do to keep him from hanging up.&amp;nbsp; I was hungury for more --- and I have been passionate about his message ever since!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You see I have a motto that has proven true, that day especially!&amp;nbsp; I tell my clients I am not your average agent.&amp;nbsp; I will never give up and I will give you everything I can possible can endure, to enable you to&amp;nbsp;realize your real estate goal;&amp;nbsp;I will pursue our quest as though I was the one realizing the dream!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Well guess what, within 48 hours --- I studied the facts about this company on my own --- I honestly didn't go to bed that night, but instead, got on the Internet and read every thing I could about this company, what's behind it, who's are the movers and shakers, etc etc etc ---- I made some day time calls and talked with 20-30 strangers, following up to testimonials and just shaking them down one side and the other....&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I finally went to bed, woke up the next morning --- paced the floor for hours and made the decision, the timing is perfect, the vision is exactly on track with what I always wanted to do (yes even at 61), and&amp;nbsp;because I have been in the top of my field all my life, this could be the most&amp;nbsp;rewarding opportunity I could ever be part of ---- &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BOTTOM LINE -&amp;nbsp;I joined Connect Realty!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now, over the next series of blog postings, I intend to share everything I know, everything I do, and help every Broker and Agent I can to realize the same dream right along with me.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Those who know me, can tell you I hit the ground running.&amp;nbsp; If you put my name in any search engine, you'll find me listed for pages in every imagne search engine.&amp;nbsp; Why?&amp;nbsp; Because I have a passion for this media.&amp;nbsp; And for 15 years I had hammer Internet like nobody you ever seen.&amp;nbsp; People who join my team will not only reap the rewards of those efforts, but I want to pass on a legacy that has sustained my business on these years --- something I have held to my chest and not shared until now, when this company came along with its true spirit of cooperation and sharing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So without further to do folks, this is my first post on the blog...more to follow.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you are a Connect Realty Associate, join my site please and share your stories, your thoughts, your testimonies.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Real Estate agents can list up to 100 properties for sale or rent absolutely FREE at VeteransMLS.com (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.veteransmls.com&quot;&gt;http://www.veteransmls.com&lt;/a&gt;) for US Military Veterans stationed worldwide to see.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In September already&amp;nbsp;8% of the&amp;nbsp;site listings were SOLD ---&amp;nbsp;in this market, 8% is not too shabby for a new site trying to get promoted.....&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Be sure to tell your fellow associates and your broker to check out the site.&amp;nbsp; You might want to advertise the website address locally and Veterans will contact you directly --- &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.veteransmls.com&quot;&gt;http://www.veteransmls.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Veterans who are buyers, can contact these Veterans either directly or preferably with the representation of a buyers agent, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;at no cost to the buyer&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;, to inquire about properties and consider a potential purchase.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Since there are very reputable and loyal Real Estate professionals who have spent their careers serving our Veterans, this website also allows these agents to list properties for sale as well.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1 style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Together with our parent site at&lt;strong&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.veteransrealestate-online.com/&quot;&gt;VeteransRealEstate-Online.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;,&amp;nbsp; visitors can find agents, loan officers, and home inspectors who are experenced at working with VETS.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Calling all Agents who serve U.S. Military Veterans in your area.....</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;I've defied the odds of our industry my entire career!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I remember reading a NAR article several times that claimed if 80% of your clients weren't sellers, then you would not survive in this business.&amp;nbsp; At first I took it to heart.&amp;nbsp; And for the next 7 years I became a caught on fire listing agent who never brought in a listing less than 7% and I became a leading agent in doing so.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fast forward to today!&amp;nbsp; I look back, and the last 7 years, I traded the listing world to become a Buyers Agent --- By that I mean, I converted my business to become a 90/10 proposition by choice.&amp;nbsp; 90% buyers and 10% sellers.&amp;nbsp; And I placed my primary focus on listing only the homes I had previously SOLD.&amp;nbsp; (No silly, I never passed up other listing opportunities either, but I did NO marketing for them is what I am trying to say).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But here we are nationwide, in a drastically changing market from what we were accustom to&amp;nbsp;having the past decade.&amp;nbsp; Some seen a horrific in market intensity while others just seen a gradual decline in sales and prices discounts.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As any wise professional, whose been through this before will tell you, there is no such thing as a bad market, just a changing market.&amp;nbsp;and depending who you are.&amp;nbsp; For the real estate professional, it can be same as she goes, just fine tuning the short sale and foreclosure skills from similiar markets before, and on you go.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For others, its been finding a second job and selling real estate nights and weekends to supplement.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Well there is NO NEED for that&amp;nbsp;&quot;IF&quot; you build a niche, become the expert, and get the word outyou are the PROFESSIONAL TO CALL!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Having been affiliated with the Navy 27 years before my retirement, that is precisely what I did.&amp;nbsp; I began working in real estate on the side from my regular job with the Navy.&amp;nbsp; I learned the ropes on the side and since my retirement from Uncle Sams &quot;canoe club&quot;, I have been working with U.S. Military Veterans and their families ever since.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And ya know what, there are real estate profesionals just like me who did the very same thing!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And its for that reason I setup this GROUP and home Real Estate Professionals weho serve VETERANS, will find this post and join the Group!&amp;nbsp; If you are like me, you get Veterans transferring all the time to another area, another state, and you have to find someone who will work them as a referral and give them the same level of service that you would have, had they stayed in your area.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Veterans Real Estate business is a phenominal niche folks and I am always looking for people to send clients to all around the country.&amp;nbsp; Let's get this Group going together and make some things happen OK...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You win, I win, and more importantly than either of us, the Veterans WIN!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;By the way, take advantage of the FREE Website my team put together at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.veteransmls.com/&quot;&gt;www.VeteransMLS.com&lt;/a&gt; ----&lt;br /&gt;Veterans and Real Estate profesionals can advertise their Homes For Sale or Rent for FREE.&amp;nbsp; Check it out.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Biz Op You Might Want To Share With Someone Out of Work</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;GREAT LOW COST BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;Besides being a real estate agent for a number of years, I also know enough to be dangerous in the&lt;br /&gt;area of website development.&amp;nbsp; So in an effort to get a specialized website up and running for my sons business,&lt;br /&gt;I stumbled across a online business concept that turned out to be very very low overhead and very little to&lt;br /&gt;start up.&amp;nbsp; From that beginning a website was designed and the online marketing began.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;The business provides a turn-key website for immediate online operation.&amp;nbsp; In most cases it is a 1-person operation and more people can get involved, depending on how much business you want to create.&amp;nbsp; For someone in King County (Seattle area), the operation has become full time and there are 3 persons running it 40 hours a week.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;It all depends on population density.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;Take a look at the details --- If you know of someone who might be interested in owning and operating one of the outlets (1 per state county), there are some typical business requirements the new owner must meet.&amp;nbsp; Again the details are online.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;For more information, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.fencingbrokers.com&quot;&gt;http://www.fencingbrokers.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
