Should they set up a profile, a group, a fan page ... or a combination of these?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://searchenginewatch.com/3635584&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Facebook Fan Pages 101&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;provides a good overview of fan pages from Ron Jones at &lt;a href=&quot;http://searchenginewatch.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Search Engine Watch&lt;/a&gt;. One of the most important features is that &quot;&lt;strong&gt;external search engines index Facebook fan pages.&lt;/strong&gt;&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Setting up your fan page is easy. Just go to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.facebook.com/advertising/?pages&quot; title=&quot;Facebook Fan Pages&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Facebook Pages&lt;/a&gt; and you'll find a step-by-step guide as well as tips to prepare and build your fan base.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Already have a fan page? Share a link in the comments. We'll help you increase your fans, and your page just might inspire another!&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>From Google Maps to Google Wave!  Google has positioned itself deeper into the Real Estate Market</title>
      <description>After watching this video, it appears that Google has positioned itself into a variety of options for real estate professionals to gateway their communications into the Web 3.0 platform.
I can see this evolving into the contract editing/meeting/conversing capabilities.  Almost like a Live-Go-To-Meeting event.  
It appears very interactive and instant.  The You Tube video is right from the Google conference as they unveil it to their web developers.  Check it out.

Aside from the obvious instant/interactive message board capabilities, I see this tool as a potential Transaction Management facility.

      <title>A Recession is a Terrible Thing To Waste: 6 Lessons From a Real Estate Veteran</title>

International&quot; style=&quot;width: 180px; float: left; height: 221px;&quot; width=&quot;180&quot; /&gt;A commentary by Bob McKinnon, Senior Regional Consultant, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.exitrealty.com/&quot; title=&quot;EXIT Realty Corp. International&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;EXIT Realty Corp. International&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;style22 style24&quot; style=&quot;margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px;&quot;&gt;We in real estate experience a recession every seven years on average, twelve of them since 1929. Each downturn is different in nature due to compounding economic factors of the time, but the effect is the same for our industry. Recently, I heard Brian Buffini use this title phrase and it sent me reflecting on some truths of our business that may possibly help you now or in the future. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No pain no gain. Pain, if properly framed will always bring about gain. What a frustrating place to be to have lots of pain with no gain at all. Remembering real estate is always first in and first out of a recession, here are six lessons from my experience. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;headings&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Expect the cycles and plan for them.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Planning ahead is what good leaders and business people do. We have an echo boom coming which will bring a whole new opportunity to our industry. As surely as it is coming it will go or geo-political events will interrupt it. OK? Think, read and be ready.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;style22 style24&quot; style=&quot;margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;headings&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Save and develop reserves in the good times.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; I believe we are entering a period of national frugality which is so smart. We REALTORS&amp;reg; love to drive, wear and live in our reserves which may prove very foolish in the future when we could be turning them into equity and investments instead. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;headings&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Brail the marketplace and know where it is trending. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Take a macro view of things by being active in REALTOR&amp;reg; groups, reading REALTOR&amp;reg; publications and attending local business or networking meetings. Reading and paying attention to the business news from reliable sources is a must. When you see and feel bad business practice, know it will not end well for anyone no matter what the temporary gain. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;headings&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Realize the opportunity in any market. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Remember life itself (marriage, divorce, births, deaths, transfers etc.) continues to drive the majority of the demand for REALTORS&amp;reg;. Always have faith that real estate will continue to change hands, so seek and find the opportunity to bring more value to your marketplace. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;headings&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;React quickly to changing trends. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Those who read the market got in early and are still there with consistent flow of business while the Johnnys-come-lately pound on the door wanting into a room that is already full. Some never see the changing trends but sadder yet some see them and do nothing about it. So how to you boil a frog? Don&amp;rsquo;t tell him the water is getting hotter and he will do nothing about it! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;headings&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Basics will always win.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Sound vision and leadership - the discipline of daily execution of basic activities like recruiting, prospecting, practicing skills; innovative marketing and branding - these are the things that still win in the battle for market share. True innovation is rare, but it is there, and usually it is just a slightly different approach to some age-old business and personal practices. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have been through a very tough time that has hurt so many. If you are ready to move on, even grow from this experience, realize there is always gain from pain. With great respect and regard for my fellows I say, seek the gain and win the day.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>How Are YOU Connected? 5 Tools to help you keep up with the social media revolution</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div id=&quot;reblogging_tag&quot;&gt;Via &lt;b&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://activerain.com/blogsview/1345811/how-are-you-connected-5-tools-to-help-you-keep-up-with-the-social-media-revolution&quot;&gt;Karen Tobler EXIT REALTY NEXUS EXIT REALTY MINNESOTA (Minneapolis, St Paul Real Estate Experts)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;:&lt;br/&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the world of Social Media Marketing, which by the end of 2010 will simply be referred to as marketing, all professionals should have at least a few methods to connect to their database and future clientele in a responsible and ethical way.&#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There are so many applications and sites.&#160; The point isn't to use them all (or sign up and not use them). The point is to use a few WELL.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here are&#160;some of the latest tools that have or I feel will really impact the way we use social media and market ourselves or simply stay connected with friends family and clients.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1. Facebook - with the addition of Fan Pages, we are now able to separate business from pleasure.&#160; Set up a fan page for your business, post the fan badges that are available to you on your other profiles or on your website.&#160; Connect the fan page updates to Twitter.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2. Twitter - 'Twitter is now the second-youngest of the top four social networking sites. Its median age is 31. MySpace's is 26, LinkedIn is 39, and,&#160;Facebook is 33&quot; (according to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.readwriteweb.com&quot;&gt;www.readwriteweb.com&lt;/a&gt; (RWW)).&#160;&#160;In general, we are seeing a better&#160;Twitter uptake over the past year. As per RWW, 37% of those 18-24 now use Twitter when only 19% did back in December 2008. The 25-34 year olds, a some of whom could still be considered Gen Y, 31% are now using the service compared to only 20% in December of last year. &lt;strong&gt;Combined, these two groups account for more than half of Twitter's network.&#160; WOW!!&lt;/strong&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When you consider the buying power of these two groups, you may want to consider becoming a &quot;Twit&quot;! Not to mention, the RT revolution is here.&#160; RT (or retweeting) will make it so much easier to spread the word.&#160; Caution!&#160; What happens on Twitter stays on Twitter.&#160; Make sure you are responsible with your comments.&#160; Remember the Golden Rule.&#160; Sadly there are agents out there that don't realize that clients are everywhere on the web, &quot;My client is a pain in the butt&quot; is NOT good PR, much less a professional way to work Twitter.&#160; &quot;Having a hard time finding a 3br/3ba house near Main Street. Can you help?&quot; - much better way to interact and still vent a little. Not to mention you will most likely connect with someone else that wants to help!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3. &lt;a href=&quot;http://posterous.com/&quot; title=&quot;Social media resource&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Posterous&lt;/a&gt; - upload to Social Media Sites in an easy way. Converts video and makes photo uploads even easier to work with.&#160; With video becoming so important, this is a great application to learn and take advantage of.&#160; You simple email what you want to post and Posterous does it for you.&#160; If you have an iPhone you can also download the Posterous app for free.&lt;img title=&quot;Simplifying social media&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/8/0/6/3/1/ar125865338313608.png&quot; height=&quot;198&quot; alt=&quot;Iphone &amp;amp; Posterous&quot; width=&quot;112&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;4. Google Chrome - Google Chrome has changed my life in the sense it saves me time.&#160; It is much faster that IE and makes browsing easier by loading your designated pages at start up, you can also search faster within a site or page.&#160; Plus, being a visual person, I get a kick out of the themes and experiments.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5.&#160;Jott.com - on the run all the time?&#160; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.Jott.com&quot;&gt;www.Jott.com&lt;/a&gt; allows for safety first when you are in the car getting your great ideas as your drive around.&#160; You are able to convert voice to text and upload that information to your blogs or social media sites.&#160;Not only that, but you can convert your voicemails to text to discreetly keep up when in a meeting along with other great tools to make life easier and stay connected.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Neat stuff, isn't it?&#160; Now there may be a few that are still skeptical, thinking social media is just a fad.&#160; Watch this video and get ready to be blown away by how social media is changing our world.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Conducting Your Own Social Media Orchestra</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Stefan is on top of his game again!!!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div id=&quot;reblogging_tag&quot;&gt;Via &lt;b&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://activerain.com/blogsview/1292768/conducting-your-own-social-media-orchestra&quot;&gt;Stefan Swanepoel (Author, Speaker &amp; Trends Guru)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;:&lt;br/&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Communicating and marketing with your customers or potential customers used to be simple. You had a few options such as TV, radio, print, etc. The advent of the Internet and the recent growth of Social Media have in some respect made this process easier, but at the same time considerably more complex as the number of technology, web and online tools has exploded.&lt;p&gt; 

Managing the diverse and expanding facets of Social Media can be compared to managing all the components of an orchestra. In the same way that an orchestra consists of different parts &#8212; percussion instruments, keyboard, strings, brass, etc. &#8212; so Social Media consists of different parts; Blogging, Microblogging, Networks, Wikis etc.&lt;p&gt;

In both cases the musical instruments or the different components of Social Media can all work autonomously; and successfully so. However, the full sound, power and impact of an orchestra only occurs when the conductor enables all  the members of the orchestra  to play together in harmony. The same principle applies to Social Media.&lt;p&gt; 

&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.realerts.com/images/social_media_report_seating.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt; 

&lt;b&gt;Tying it All Together&lt;/b&gt;&lt;p&gt; 

To coordinate all the members  to each play their  instrument at the right time requires a conductor that uses a music score (a plan) to show him when each instrument should be played. &lt;p&gt; 

In that same way view yourself as the conductor of your own Social Media Orchestra. It&#8217;s not vital that you activate or participate in every section and there is no reason that you can&#8217;t start one section at a time. There is no right or wrong here, neither is there a deadline or time frame. This example of a Social Media Orchestra is to illustrate the fact that you are in control of your own participation and that it can be done piecemeal and on your own timeline.&lt;p&gt; 

However, similar to the music conductor you must use your Social Media sites (think instruments) harmoniously and with a specific plan (think song/tune) in mind. If you don&#8217;t, your result will create a less attractive result (think noise).&lt;p&gt; 

To help understand the Social Media Orchestra the new Swanepoel Social Media Report (2010) published last week week divides social media activities into three primary sections and nine secondary components.

      <title>Top 10 Differences Between EXIT Realty and the Others</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div id=&quot;reblogging_tag&quot;&gt;Via &lt;b&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://activerain.com/blogsview/1335421/top-10-differences-between-exit-realty-and-the-others&quot;&gt;Craig Witt (EXIT Realty Michigan &amp; Illinois)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;:&lt;br/&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;There is definite change occurring in Real Estate brokerage including mergers, acquisitions, sellouts, roll-ins, conversions and plenty of closings of Real Estate offices. My job is to have my thumb on the pulse of these changes; any hint of someone making a move initiates a call from me to see if they have what it takes to be part of EXIT Realty. You see, I sell franchises, but I am not a franchise salesperson. I treat my career as a relationship building experience; selecting those franchise prospects that will take a leap of faith and invest in EXIT, so I can invest in supporting them in our system. And, I always ask myself this question, &quot;Why would someone join EXIT Realty&quot;? The answer is simple to me and after reading this, it will be simple to you. We have lasted through this turbulent time in our industry because of the strong foundation our CEO and Founder, Steve Morris, built back in 1996 when EXIT Realty was formed. I am convinced we will become the most productively successful Real Estate Company on Earth.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am going to share ten (10) differences between EXIT Realty and the other choices. But, before you read them, consider this: you can travel the Dixie Highway from Michigan to Florida in a Ford, Chevy, Dodge, Lexus or Cadillac. Some are more comfortable, some more efficient, but all good choices for getting you down the road. Then, you have the choice of a Helicopter to achieve the same result. Which makes better sense to you? EXIT Realty is your helicopter. Carefully consider what I am about to share with you and see if they hold the same value to you as they do for us.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;Top 10 differences between EXIT Realty and the others&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1. &lt;strong&gt;Our Unique Operating System&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.exitrealty.com/formulasummary.aspx&quot; title=&quot;EXIT Formula&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;(The EXIT Formula).&lt;/a&gt; It is simple and it works. It provides additional income streams to agents and their families including retirement and death benefits. Over $175 Million has been paid out to date and it is not contingent on the profitability of the company. It welds agents into a brokerage and allows them to build a business within a business through the power of vesting the agent with the broker. True mentorship.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2. &lt;strong&gt;No Service Fees (%)&lt;/strong&gt;. EXIT Realty does charge a minimal Transaction Fee, but it is off the agents portion of the commission, not a 5-10% fee off the top like others. Simply put, you net more at EXIT Realty.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3. &lt;strong&gt;Protected Territories&lt;/strong&gt;. We sell protected territories to allow you the elbow room to grow when you feel it is appropriate, and to have an asset, something of value with your Franchise Agreement.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;4. &lt;strong&gt;International Single-Call Franchise Support System&lt;/strong&gt;. Not only do we offer full-time direct Franchise Support staff available to our Franchisees, we also provide full-time agent support services lines as well. We are here for you, live, when you need it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;MEMO and EXITtrac&lt;/strong&gt;. Proprietary software systems to not only operate your franchise, but to track and maintain the agents sponsored into the company so you can see past, current and pending activity. Our software systems are among the best in the industry and available to make it easier for you to run your office.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;6. &lt;strong&gt;Trend Setters&lt;/strong&gt;. EXIT Realty recognizes that a high percentage of leadership in corporations are shifting to women. Our &lt;a href=&quot;http://activerain.com/blogsview/1334591/canadian-president-for-exit-realty-corp-international-is-honoured-at-annual-convention&quot; title=&quot;Presidents of EXIT Realty&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;U.S. and Canadian Presidents&lt;/a&gt; are both highly skilled and experienced women that have both been identified as outstanding women in leadership.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;7. &lt;strong&gt;Green Initiative&lt;/strong&gt;. EXIT Realty recently introduced our company-wide &lt;a href=&quot;http://livemag.rismedia.com/wps/portal/ris/c0/04_SB8K8xLLM9MSSzPy8xBz9CP0os3iLkCAPEzcPIwN_d0tTA6OQYDPPAHN3Y39vE_1I_ShzhLy7r6GlgaeBX4CRj6WBsYGBiX4IyMRM_UhTI3NDELNYP9IARBeA6ILsxKSq1EhFAJuXLZ8!/&quot; title=&quot;Teal is the New Green&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&quot;Teal is the New Green&quot;&lt;/a&gt; initiative in support of the green movement across the country. In November, we were the Cover Story in RisMedia's Real Estate Magazine announcing this trend setting move to stay ahead of the curve.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;Available CEO/Founder and Leadership&lt;/strong&gt;. When is the last time you spoke to your CEO or upper-level management? How available are they when you need them? EXIT Realty is committed to service and support, as well as being available to our people who have made the investment in our company. We are here for you.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;9. &lt;strong&gt;Technology Tools&lt;/strong&gt;. Everyone has technology and tools, but, do they have the right technology and tools? Do they have a technology specialist available to answer your questions at your fingertips? We do. We know how important technology is today to compete and we have some innovative and exclusive tools just for our people.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;10. &lt;strong&gt;Mindset Training&lt;/strong&gt;. EXIT Realty believes that good agents are born, great agents are trained. While other companies are cutting back, EXIT is forging ahead, keeping the focus on &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.exitrealty.com/training.aspx&quot; title=&quot;Training&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;training &lt;/a&gt;agents to better service the clients and be more productive for our franchisees. It simply makes good sense.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Based on the feedback I receive while interviewing franchise prospects, I would say we have 10 reasons why you should consider EXIT Realty. These are important,&amp;nbsp;relevant, and imperative to staying competitive today in Real Estate. As a broker, you deserve the best system and support available and owe it to yourself to look further into EXIT Realty to see if it makes sense to you and your situation.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Making eco-friendly home features pay off&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Buyers prefer eco-friendly upgrades that save them money&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;By Alyson McNutt English, Cyberhomes Contributor&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Published: September 23, 2009&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When it comes to dollars and cents, energy-efficient, low-E windows and high-performance insulation are a better bang for the home buyer's buck than shiny hardwood floors. Fortunately, the real estate market is beginning to recognize this: A survey of &quot;green&quot; home sales by Earth Advantage, a non-profit green building organization in the Pacific Northwest, found homes in the eco-conscious Portland area sold for 4.8 percent more and stayed on the market 24 percent fewer days than comparable homes without earth-friendly improvements.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you've made green renovations to your home and are getting ready to sell - or if you're thinking of making eco-friendly home improvements and have an eye on return on investment - check out these tips for making sure your earth-sensitive changes get you all the &quot;green&quot; you deserve.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Focus on eyes ... and wallets&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Buyers are more likely to pay a premium for green improvements they can see, touch or feel in their wallet, says Andrew Jay Gross, chairman of The Green Committee in the Beverly Hills/Greater Los Angeles Association of Realtors. &quot;Buyers clearly look for visible green features, like lighting, floors, appliances and garden features that use indigenous plants to conserve water,&quot; he says.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Energy-saving lighting systems that use watt-sipping compact fluorescent or LED lights can really turn buyers on to a property, he explains, because they can see the system and know they'll feel the difference in their wallet. And if you think these lights are all big classroom-style tubes or huge twisted coils, think again. More and more energy-saving bulbs are coming on the market in a variety of shapes and sizes to fit into even the most sophisticated d&amp;eacute;cor.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And while they appreciate the good karma of saving and sustaining the earth, most buyers are likely to flock to the improvements that will save them money in the long run. Energy savings are really one of the driving forces pushing green into the mainstream of home buyers' consciousness, says Jeff Ammons, president of LiveGreen Inc., a company that specializes in helping homeowners make marketable green improvements to their homes. &quot;Most homeowners care about sustainability, but when it comes to money, energy savings is the big seller,&quot; he says. &quot;Sustainability requires more effort and longer payback periods than energy savings.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ammons says many buyers he's seen are looking up and down for improvements ... literally. They seem to care most about the insulation and sealing in the attic and crawl spaces, and love upgraded, energy-efficient HVAC systems, he says.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Choose a real estate agent who understands &amp;lsquo;green'&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;Think Green&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/1/0/1/4/7/ar125752836974101.jpg&quot; height=&quot;91&quot; alt=&quot;EXIT REALTY NEXUS eco friendly homes for sale 55126&quot; width=&quot;53&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A lot of buyers who aren't searching specifically for an eco-friendly home can still be drawn to one if it's marketed properly. &quot;Each marketing effort is an education to most buyers,&quot; says Jan Green, a Realtor and certified EcoBroker in Scottsdale, Ariz.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Green says she can't just say, &quot;Low-VOC paint&quot; and expect it to sell a home, because most buyers don't understand the term. &quot;But even when I explain that it means there are no volatile organic compounds in the paint, I have to explain what that means.&quot; So if your real estate agent doesn't completely understand what the green features in your home do or why they add value, neither will potential buyers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But as green homes become more common, professional certifications are emerging to meet the needs of sellers. The best-known green real estate agent certification is probably the EcoBroker designation, which is administered and awarded by the Association of Energy and Environmental Real Estate Professionals (AEEREP).&lt;/p&gt;

Winning this year is even sweeter because of the tough economic conditions our country is facing. We are so pleased and proud of this honor and dedicate ourselves to even greater success.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.exitrealty.com/&quot; title=&quot;EXIT Realty&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;EXIT Realty&lt;/a&gt; Founder and CEO, Steve Morris, commented, &amp;ldquo;The unprecedented challenge of our economy has facilitated the ultimate arena for the full expression of character, sense of purpose, initiative, success orientation and empathy.&amp;nbsp; This environment has rendered the best of the best most evident in EXIT Realty MidSouth.&amp;nbsp; This decision was unanimous and deserving in every way.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Finally, at the always-anticipated President&amp;rsquo;s Ball Gala, the week came to a spectacular end for this already winning group of individuals. After hours of agonizing suspense, at the stroke of midnight, the winner of the $100,000 grand prize draw was announced. . Mike Grumbles!&amp;nbsp; Yes that&amp;rsquo;s correct, one of the Regional Owners of EXIT Realty Mid-South was awarded $100,000!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;Congratulations to the entire Region on your success and all the best in the years to come,&amp;rdquo; commented Morris.&lt;/p&gt;

		    A rare and unique updated log and natural fieldstone retreat situated on a private 2.6 acre lakeshore lot on Lake Marie.  The Lake Marie and Lake Louisa bodies of water are attached and are classified as recreational fishing lakes.  Lake Marie is approximately 150 littoral acres.  Predominant fish species include Black Crappie, Bullhead, Northern Pike, Sunfish, Bluegill, and Walleye.  The 3 bedroom 3 bathroom log home was originally built in 1993.  The home has been updated from the exterior to the interior.  It is a highly effecient home with 3 heating and cooling systems.  The home is privately nestled among the woods, making it a very secluded retreat from the road.  Outstanding lake views from every room included the beam upper loft area.  This four season lake home is finished on all levels and includes additional out buildings for storage and a 2 car attached garage.  This is a one-of-a-kind retreat that simply requires a new year round or seasonal homeowner.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mississauga, ON&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;(Grassroots Newswire)&amp;ndash;&lt;/strong&gt; In spite of&amp;nbsp;the challenges faced by the real estate industry&amp;nbsp;this past year, EXIT Realty Corp. International proudly continues its support for its charity of choice, Habitat for Humanity.&amp;nbsp; At the EXIT Realty International Convention held&amp;nbsp;last week in Washington DC, Christine Ireborg, EXIT's liaison with Habitat announced that pledges to date have exceeded $1.68 million.&amp;nbsp;View our latest video presentation &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.exitrealty.com/habitat_video.aspx&quot; title=&quot;EXIT Realty Corp. International Habitat for Humanity Presentation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;EXIT Realty couldn't be more proud to partner&amp;nbsp;with Habitat for Humanity to help make the dream of homeownership come true for&amp;nbsp;deserving families across the U.S. and Canada,&quot; said Ireborg. &quot;We wanted to identify with an organization that shares our values and philosophies; an organization based on giving back.&quot;&amp;nbsp; A portion of every transaction fee collected by EXIT Realty Corp. International is dedicated to its charitable fund.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;EXIT Realty has 11 corporately sponsored builds under its tool belt with the current one in Newark, New Jersey scheduled for dedication later this year.&amp;nbsp; EXIT Realty associates will be swinging hammers once again at upcoming builds in&amp;nbsp;these cities:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PRESS RELEASE&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;EXIT Realty Nexus and ROI Auctions announce a partial inventory reduction of over 50 properties going up for auction on October 24&lt;sup&gt;th&lt;/sup&gt;.&amp;nbsp; Renee Johnson, Dennis Dorman and Mike Berglund, all REALTORS&amp;reg; with EXIT Realty Nexus, along with Mike Harris of ROI Auctions are the key facilitators of this event.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;Held at the Embassy Suites in Brooklyn Center with registration starting at eleven o'clock, this special auction will showcase 55 lots with bids starting at below market value.&amp;nbsp; These auction lots, which are developed building sites in their respective municipalities, are available in Brooklyn Park, Maple Lake, North Branch, and townships in the Princeton area. These lots range from city lots to acreage lots.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&quot;&lt;em&gt;This is a tremendous opportunity for anyone looking to build either now or in the future&lt;/em&gt;,&quot; explained Mr. Dorman.&amp;nbsp; &quot;&lt;em&gt;Additionally, we have owner financing available for those who qualify&lt;/em&gt;.&quot;&amp;nbsp; In the current economic climate, lots have typically been placed on the lower rungs of the credit priority ladder and financing has been difficult to obtain.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&quot;&lt;em&gt;Owner financing along with these lots being held in a traditional way makes it so that the purchaser does not have to wait for weeks or even months to get approval, only to wait again to close as they would with short sales or bank owned properties.&lt;/em&gt;&quot; said Ms. Johnson.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&quot;&lt;em&gt;Forty percent of sales in August were lender mediated sales according to the Minneapolis Area Association of REALTORS&amp;reg;; in most cases, it meant a lot of waiting on the part of the buyer to secure their property of interest.&amp;nbsp; Whereas with purchasing through an auction is vastly different&lt;/em&gt;&quot; added Mr. Berglund.&amp;nbsp; Auctions have become a successful option in this ever-changing real estate market.&amp;nbsp; Consumers are able to leverage auction situations to set their own pricing, reduce waiting times, and in many instances purchase a property at below market value.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;&lt;em&gt;We are really excited about presenting these properties to the public&lt;/em&gt;,&quot; explained Mr. Harris. &quot;&lt;em&gt;We have some properties that will be sold absolute. In other words, the property will be auctioned to the highest bidder regardless of the final bid amount.&amp;nbsp; There will be no minimum bid on the absolute sales.&quot;&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;Walk-ins are welcome; however, space is limited.&amp;nbsp; Pre-registration is recommended for everyone interested in attending.

International)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;:&lt;br/&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.exitnews.info/times/blog/teal_is_the_new_green_leaf.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Teal is the New Green - EXIT Realty&quot; style=&quot;margin: 5px; float: left;&quot; /&gt;The green real estate movement is today&amp;rsquo;s mantra for everything from energy-efficient appliances and toxin-free building materials to all-natural cleaning supplies or water-saving products.&amp;nbsp; Everywhere we turn, marketing screams for our lives to &amp;ldquo;go green!&amp;rdquo;&amp;nbsp; Whether it&amp;rsquo;s the bag you pack your groceries in, separating recyclables before putting out the garbage or checking the tags on what you buy to ensure it&amp;rsquo;s organic, day-to-day living centers around being &amp;ndash; or quickly becoming &amp;ndash; eco-friendly.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;With that in mind, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.exitrealty.com/&quot; title=&quot;EXIT Realty Corp. International&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;EXIT Realty Corp. International&lt;/a&gt; announced today the launch of its green initiative, &amp;ldquo;teal is the new &lt;em&gt;green&lt;/em&gt;&amp;rdquo;,&amp;nbsp; which includes training, resources and other tools to assist their agents in marketing themselves as proficient green REALTORS&lt;sup&gt;&amp;reg;&lt;/sup&gt;.&amp;nbsp; The centerpiece to this initiative is a new alliance with EcoBroker&lt;sup&gt;&amp;reg;&lt;/sup&gt; International, the world&amp;rsquo;s first and largest green designation program for real estate professionals.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;EcoBroker's&lt;sup&gt;&amp;reg;&lt;/sup&gt; green designation training and ongoing support will provide EXIT Realty agents with the resources to be constructive green ambassadors in an ever-changing business and consumer world.&amp;nbsp; They will be able to knowledgeably assist clients in their pursuit of properties that provide affordability, comfort and a healthier environment.&amp;nbsp; EXIT-EcoBroker certified professionals will also help sellers effectively market their properties with green features. EcoBroker&lt;sup&gt;&amp;reg;&lt;/sup&gt; is the only designation which is taught by experts in both the green industry and the real estate industry.&amp;nbsp; With over 5,400 agents trained world-wide, they are the largest green designation program for real estate.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;We are also the only green certification program that requires our members to take four hours of additional education each year,&amp;rdquo; says John Stovall, VP Business Development for EcoBroker&lt;sup&gt;&amp;reg;&lt;/sup&gt; International.&amp;nbsp; &amp;ldquo;Our annual Advantage Course will keep EXIT-EcoBrokers on top of the latest information in the world of green real estate.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;EXIT-EcoBrokers will be equipped with additional energy and environmental information as well as tools to help them provide added value to all of their real estate transactions.&amp;nbsp; &amp;ldquo;This training helps our agents address the newest topics in real estate, such as green home certification programs like ENERGY STAR&lt;sup&gt;&amp;reg;&lt;/sup&gt; &lt;sup&gt;&quot;, &lt;/sup&gt;says Tami Bonnell, President of the US Organization of EXIT Realty Corp. International.&amp;nbsp; &amp;ldquo;It also provides practical solutions to assist them in working through issues that may arise in any real estate transaction, such as mold, radon, or poor indoor air quality to name just a few.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Minneapolis &amp; Saint Paul MN HOME BUYERS ADVANTAGE PROGRAM.  A FREE Guide for Homebuyers in MN.</title>
      <description>&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;We are proud to have developed one of the &lt;strong&gt;best home buyer advantage programs&lt;/strong&gt;for people who are considering a real estate purchase in this every challenging Twin Cities housing market. This program is simply called the HOME BUYERS ADVANTAGE NEXUS.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.allmetrohomes.com/bin/web/real_estate/AR28461/HOME_FINDER/Minneapolis/1253360144.html&quot; title=&quot;HOME BUYERS ADVANTAGE PROGRAM&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/5/1/2/3/4/ar125382982843215.jpg&quot; height=&quot;129&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; width=&quot;186&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;By definition, &lt;strong&gt;NEXUS is defined as a group of connected people.&lt;/strong&gt;Having said that, &lt;strong&gt;our homebuyers have access to SEVEN additional resources beyond the conventional listed properties everybody else has access to&lt;/strong&gt;. In other words, as a home buyer, you can access properties that the majority of consumers and real estate agents either do not have access to or choose to investigate only what is already publicly posted for sale.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After all, people are saying there are many properties available. Correct? We understand each buyer wants a great deal. Great deals and opportunities come from a variety of sources including sources outside of the conventional platform outlined on any MLS data base. There is a lot of research that goes into buying or selling a home and we respect the fact that buyers want to do much of that research during their journey and they do not want to answer numerous questions from agents when all they want is a bit more information. We completely understand where consumers are coming from and respect their wishes. We simply want you to be the most informed consumer for when that time comes to purchase real estate. However, we also want you to have an edge on the competition.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;OUR BUYERS have access to SEVEN additional sources&lt;/strong&gt;of inventory that the general public cannot acquire on their own. Here are the real estate databases that few if any brokers will ever show home buyers:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;1. We access all expired listings that match your criteria going back 2 years. Guess what? We contact them for you!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.allmetrohomes.com/bin/web/real_estate/AR28461/HOME_FINDER/Minneapolis/1253360144.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;Expired listings search&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/6/9/3/6/8/ar125389224486396.jpg&quot; height=&quot;62&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; width=&quot;149&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;2. All of our past clients we&amp;rsquo;ve sold homes to over the years&amp;nbsp;are notified of &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;your &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;specific needs so they can help in the nexus.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.allmetrohomes.com/bin/web/real_estate/AR28461/HOME_FINDER/Minneapolis/1253360144.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;All Sold with Team D'Angelo&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/7/3/3/4/2/ar125389251424337.jpg&quot; height=&quot;119&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; width=&quot;164&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;3. As an REO Broker managing several asset management firms and banks, we have access to numerous soon-to-be listed foreclosures, so do our buyers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://mnreoexit.com/search_foreclosures_100225.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://cdn-users1.imagechef.com/ic/stored/2/090119/anm08428a4c85891cad.gif&quot; alt=&quot;ImageChef.com - Custom comment codes for MySpace, Hi5, Friendster and more&quot; /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://counters.gigya.com/wildfire/IMP/CXNID=2000002.0NXC/bT*xJmx*PTEyMzIzOTc4NzQxMjMmcHQ9MTIzMjM5Nzg4NjE1NiZwPTExOTMxJmQ9c3RhbmRhcmQmZz*xJnQ9Jm89ZDRhYWJiZTAxMTVhNDE1M2ExYWE*NDlhZDA4YmNmZjU=.gif&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; width=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;4. Every &amp;ldquo;For Sale By Owner&amp;rdquo; in the county that we know about will be notified of your specific needs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.allmetrohomes.com/bin/web/real_estate/AR28461/RELOCATION/Minneapolis/1253360144.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;FOR SALE BY OWNERS&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/1/7/5/3/3/ar125389277333571.jpg&quot; height=&quot;66&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; width=&quot;150&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;5. Homeowners not on the market in your specific area of interest will be notified of your need to move in that neighborhood in case someone is thinking about moving soon.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.allmetrohomes.com/bin/web/real_estate/AR28461/HOME_VALUE/Minneapolis/1253360144.html&quot; title=&quot;Choose your own home&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;NETWORKING WITH UNLISTED HOME IN YOUR AREA OF INTEREST&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/8/0/1/6/4/ar125389292146108.jpg&quot; height=&quot;224&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; width=&quot;248&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Ambassador Series - What is Localism? </title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div id=&quot;reblogging_tag&quot;&gt;Via &lt;b&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://activerain.com/blogsview/1251434/ambassador-series-what-is-localism-&quot;&gt;Donna Bigda Realtor&#174; CDPE e-PRO Branford Connecticut Homes and Condos (RE/MAX Alliance)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;:&lt;br/&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Are you new to Active Rain?&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp; Not sure of what &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.localism.com&quot; title=&quot;Localism&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Localism&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; is and how it can be beneficial to you?&amp;nbsp; When you're brand new to blogging it's often very difficult to come up with ideas for topics to write about on a consistent basis.&amp;nbsp; I've been writing posts over almost 2 years and have had those days when I just can't think of anything to post.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;Localism&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/3/4/2/3/4/ar125368335843243.jpg&quot; height=&quot;74&quot; alt=&quot;Localism&quot; width=&quot;403&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;One of the ways to overcome that problem is to write about your communities&lt;/strong&gt;. The sister site and consumer facing side of &lt;strong&gt;Active Rain is &lt;a href=&quot;http://localism.com&quot; title=&quot;Localism&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Localism&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;where members can display consumer oriented content about their local communities.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Posting to Localism&lt;/strong&gt; allows you to interact and create connections with the public by providing them with local information and promotes you as the knowledgable&lt;strong&gt; local expert&lt;/strong&gt; in your area,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I don't leave my house without my digital camera and flip video&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp; You just never know when the opportunity will arise to take a picture of something of interest in your neighborhood.&amp;nbsp; I also make sure I carry with me a small note pad too and jot down places of interest or upcoming events that I want to focus on at a later date to write a post about.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You're all familiary with Wikipedia, the free internet portal where there are millions of written articles on any topic you can think of many of which include links to guide its users to additional information on related pages.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Think of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.localism.com&quot; title=&quot;Localism&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Localism&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;as your local Wikipedia or as the tagline for Localism states &quot;The World's Most Complete Neighborpedia.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Posts written to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.localism.com&quot; title=&quot;Localism&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Localism&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; consisting of&lt;strong&gt; hyper-local conten&lt;/strong&gt;t &lt;strong&gt;and photos &lt;/strong&gt;will attract consumers who want to learn more about a specific area.&amp;nbsp; Write about upcoming events, local news, libraries, places of interest,&amp;nbsp; schools, school activiites/sports, local businesses, parks, fund raising events....&lt;strong&gt;Think like a consumer &lt;/strong&gt;and what they would be looking for that is engaging and interesting.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;DON'T &lt;/strong&gt;write content to your peers!!&lt;strong&gt;.....DO &lt;/strong&gt;write content to the consumer!!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your posts are sent to Localism by checking the box&lt;/strong&gt; as shown and then choosing the state, county, city and neighborhood that you're writing your content for.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;Posting to Localism&quot; src=&quot;http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/1/7/4/1/4/ar125367975241471.jpg&quot; height=&quot;336&quot; alt=&quot;Posting to Localism&quot; style=&quot;border: 2px solid black; vertical-align: middle;&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;**&lt;/strong&gt;If you are a&lt;strong&gt; free member&lt;/strong&gt; any posts &lt;strong&gt;you've written are &quot;Members Only.&quot;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt; You will have to upgrade to a&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Rainmaker account &lt;/strong&gt;to post to&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Localism**&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;As an &lt;strong&gt;Active Rain Ambassador&lt;/strong&gt;, I would be more than happy to offer any assistance and help to any&lt;strong&gt; new members&lt;/strong&gt; who are ready to get started.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I've included a few other member's posts&lt;/strong&gt; that will provide additional information about the many benefits and ways that &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.localism.com&quot; title=&quot;Localism&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Localism&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; can help to brand you as the local expert in your community.&lt;/p&gt;
