Brevard, The Land of The Waterfalls - Your Brevard NC Real Estate Experts
Brevard is located at the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains at the crossroads between Pisgah National Forest, DuPont State Forest, and The Gorges State Park and has a view of Bracken Mountain Nature Reserve all offering a smorgasbord of outdoor activities such as world-renowned fly fishing, kayaking, biking, hiking, and climbing. Brevard is also home to the world-renowned Brevard Music Center, Brevard College, and Transylvania Community Arts Council, bringing very diverse programs, concerts and exhibits to our mountain community. Brevard's hometown feeling is captured by four annual street festivals: White Squirrel Festival, the famous Fourth of July Festival, Halloween Fest, and the Twilight Tour. These include special events such as the Annual Squirrel Box Derby, antique auto show, Old Time Music Competition, and Main Street Alive. The city is nicknamed "The Land of the Waterfalls" due to the many waterfalls in the area, including Looking Glass, Connestee Falls, and Sliding Rock.

Transylvania County is home to over 250 waterfalls and countless streams. Local bluegrass jams coexist along virtuoso performances by some of the greatest classical musicians of our time. Some of the world's rarest plant and animal species on earth are supported by our temperate rain forest. Brevard is also where a pair of white squirrels, on the lam from a traveling carnival in the 1950's, started a family that now spans generations. In short, it is a place like no other on earth. Welcome to the Land of Waterfalls and home to the famous White Squirrel!

The local Real Estate market of Brevard NC has not seen the ridiculously outrages value appreciations that so many of the local Real Estate Markets around the country have seen and consequently Brevard has seen less of a down market. Real Estate and Home buyers in Brevard NC often learn that the "buyers market" they expected just doesn't exist. In fact many buyers, particularly first time buyers or those buyers that are looking in the entry level price range find just the opposite. One fact is that there are actually a few homes in Brevard NC under the $200k price point when as little as 2-3 years ago a buyer would be challenged when looking for homes in this price range that they would consider desirable. Nice homes for sale in Brevard NC that are properly priced under $200k often times sell very quickly. Bargain hunters in the $300k range and up will see more of a "Buyers Market" than those buyers in the entry level price range.

As far as the activity of Homes that sold in Brevard/Transylvania County NC goes, is as follows for 2007 under $200k-125 from $200-$350k-123 and for $350k+134. 2008 under $200k-112 from $200-$350k-93 and for $350k+64 and for 2009 up to November 1st under $200k-72 from $200-$350k-68 and for $350k+42. As of 11/1/09 in the mailing city of Brevard there are 54 homes under $200k, 51 homes from $200-$350k and 64 homes for $350k+ listed for sale in the MLS. While these statistics show the amount of sales are down and listings are up for some reason we have not seen the overall sales price reduce that much. More so in the higher price ranges.

Transylvania County has 4 Elementary Schools, 2 Middle Schools, and 3 High Schools with Brevard Elementary, Brevard Middle, and Brevard High serving students and families within the Brevard Mailing City. There are also a few private options for families seeking more personalized or religious curriculums.
The simple fact is: Brevard NC is a very desirable place to live and people will always be moving to Brevard NC. Welcome Home!

Brevard is less than 30 miles from Asheville, 20 miles from Hendersonville, and less than 3 hours from major metropolitan areas of Charlotte, NC; Knoxville, TN; Atlanta, GA. Also we are located just a stone's throw from many of the area's best attractions such as the Biltmore Estate, Chimney Rock and Grandfather Mountain and very convenient connection to the Blue Ridge Parkway.

Real Estate Social Networking Websites MUST learn from Activerain's Announcement...

Real Estate Web Trainer, LLC. — Mon, 16 Feb 2009 19:57:27 -0600

Real Estate Social Networking Websites MUST learn from Activerain's Announcement...

The flaw in Activerain's Thinking...

Today, Feb 16th 2009, came the announcement that Activerain will monetize from Agents when they Blog!!! (Forgetting that it was those Blogs that made the Network Powerful with Search Engines.)

The power of Activerain will then diminish as loyal participants realize that they hold such a power with their ideas and their content and will choose to participate in other friendlier platforms.

The power of the network is larger than the individual... But those who hold the network tightly must tread lightly or lose influence...

Want an example... Think Myspace.com (It is declining and FaceBook is becoming the most Successful Model Ever...)

So today we breakup with Activerain; what a shame - she used to be so much fun...

Activerain announcement to start charging Real Estate Professional for Blogging and ignoring that it was their contributions that created their visibility will lead to the failure of the network, and agents will transition to new platforms that understand what is at the core of every Real Estate Transaction: the REALTORS... STOP Bleeding them dry!!!

All Social Networks must respect their members and stop trying to monetize from ALL Participants... the way to monetize is to offer additional layers of services that appeal to 10% of the network...

Note to Social Network Providers: Offer an open network for all participants then offer a layer of special additional tools for those who desire automation and are willing to pay for it... Run your network on 10% of your network - NOT by thinking you will get a Dollar from all participants... and YES do it with limited advertising...

Want examples of network failures... MSN, AT&T, and unfortunately Zillow... (Note: This is Zillow's chance to take on Activerain and Trulia by offering Free Services for Blogging and Listings Visibility!!!)

How about AOL... Good Night AOL sleep tight!!! (Tight control of the the internet spells doom...)

Want a name of a successful growing network: Trulia.com. (Zolve is slowly growing and will benefit from Activerain's Announcement...)

Activerain was the most successful such Social Network for Real Estate Professionals and everyone was trying to emulate them... the good news is that it opens Trulia and Zolve to become the most attractive Social Networking Services for Realtors... (PS: WannaNetwork and BrokerAgentSocial - STOP confusing your Agents with changes that are haphazard and capricious...)

So What is the lesson... Social Networking Websites Should Stop creating Networks so they can control them and look to milk agents from every dime they are making... Worse STOP pretending that you have SEO Tools that transcends the truth of Search Engine Visibility... Activerain became visible because of the content the Real Estate Professionals who dedicated themselves to adding daily...

So Goodbye Activerain and hello Trulia, Zolve, and Condo.com!!! (and maybe a Hello to BrokerAgentSocial, and Zillow, and WannaNetwork...)

Garner Raleigh Real Estate Web Strategy Training

Realtor Training Seminar Thursday 2/19/2009

The Brokers of Exit Realty in Garner / Raleigh Area of North Carolina, George White, Johnnyette Taylor, and Keith Burch are holding a special training on Real Estate Web Strategy Thursday February 19th, 2009, and led by Key Yessaad.

The training is designed to help Realtors and Brokers devise an Internet Strategy that produces results and transcends the arduous jargon that floats around the Real Estate Industry. Real Estate Professionals understand that having a successful Web presence is important but getting the right ideas and habits are few and far between... this course intends to answer the fundamental questions and offers a Plan of Action that Realtors can trust to design an organic Real Estate Internet Strategy driven by the needs of their Buyers and Sellers. This is a true Real Estate Training - nothing will be sold nor does the trainer affiliate with any vendors.

Location: Exit Realty Professionals - (Thank you George White) 705 Umstead Ln, Garner, NC 27529 - (919) 779-2211

Date: Thursday, Feb 19^th, 2009 - 9:30am (please start arriving at 9am)

Duration: 5 hours - ample breaks will be offered.

Cost: $45 (please make checks payable to: Key Yessaad and hand them to your broker. I asked them to hold the checks until I have delivered the training.)

Lunch Sponsor: Dean Brown, Allstate Insurance (Thank you, you're the best!)

My Commitment: To un-shackle you from the fear of the internet and show you what your Buyers, Sellers and Google want... (Don't we all want to make Google happy!!!) I will also give you a methodical plan of action to get you going or tweak what you are currently doing...

Course Description: (please read what follows to understand the intention of the course.)

Real Estate Web Strategy
Going beyond the Web Jargon and into a Successful Real Estate Strategy

Do you plan to get a website? Do you have a website that's stagnant? Do you feel overwhelmed with the whole endeavor? This is the Seminar for you... many of you have sluggish websites that are not producing any results... so what to do?

I designed this course to go beyond the mere discussion of need; to the design of a Real Estate Web Strategy that drives traffic and results. You will leave empowered and with a plan of action and a full-understanding of what is currently happening in the realm of Real Estate Websites.

I am Vendor-Agnostic and will share with you what I have seen work; I will show you what to demand from your vendor and will help you make the right decision. It is not the Vendor that matters; it is your habits and discipline I am going to focus on...

This course was designed to enhance the ability of Real Estate Professionals to compete in an ever increasing spirited Internet Landscape...

This course used to be called: "I don't have a Web Strategy - How do I get started?" It has now evolved to include all the major topics of Real Estate Internet Strategies. Bring your assistant, your web guru, your cousin Vinnie who dabbles in websites - they will learn how to help you focus on the most important part about having a Real Estate website. Realtor Websites are of a different nature than regular ones - I will explain all this in the class...

I will cover the following topics in the Seminar:

Should you get a Real Estate website? And why?
How do you select the best Web Services? What are the important tools of a R.E. Website?
Domain Names: How do I get one? Where and How much?
Should I get more than one? And why? How do I hook them up together?
How do I get started?
Will I be able to understand the Web jargon? (Let me give you the answer: Yes)
How expensive is it going to be? (I will show you how to get started for FREE!)
How much work will I have to put in? Is it worth the effort? And how often?
What is IDX? And do I need it? Shouldn't I just use my MLS IDX? And what is Sticky IDX?
How about Blogging? Is it important?
How can my Assistant help me grow my website?

I will have time for all your questions... Remember: bringing your tech guy/gal to this class will help you and will focus him/her on your Real Estate Web needs...

	"Thank you for the phenomenal training on real estate blogging and our web strategy. Not only was it entertaining and informative, but it was RELEVANT! You are providing our agents and brokers the most pertinent information we could receive in this market. I personally have seen the results of doing what you tell me to do and I have no doubt that it will lead to our office being more successful. Every regional owner and broker should have you in their offices immediately! We cannot wait to have you back in Charlotte." - Angie Byers Owner - EXIT Realty South.

	"Key is the MASTER of internet strategy! He's paying it forward by training Exit Realty agents on how to harness the power of online marketing and lead generation. Through his high energy, cutting edge training, he has motivated and energized our team! Key is sharing what many others exploit for big bucks! We can't learn enough from him! If you have not experienced his training, you're missing out (and probably way behind the curve)." - Kathy Rawers - Broker/Owner.

	"Key, Your class on Blogging was amazing. You were right on the money when you spoke of how much other companies charged to optimize your websites and help move you up in the rankings. Your class motivates an individiual and has them take control of their own destiny. This is just like the old saying "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink." There are no more excuses. You feel empowered when you can blog and move yourself up in the rankings as you taught us to do today. I'm anxious to get started and take control of the Statesville market. Thanks, I look forward to future classes." - Kim Privette, Broker/Owner.

Real Estate Web Trainer, LLC. — Sat, 14 Feb 2009 12:04:22 -0600

Did he say Ctrl-K or "Control Key" - Charlotte Real Estate Training goes bang!!!

Bang... Yes I heard that noise go off in many of the agents' heads and smiles who attended "Charlotte Real Estate Blogging Strategy." - In fact many of them said so using terms such as: "I get it now!," "I know what to do now!," and all promised to have a blog posted within a week and start blogging weekly and become the community market leaders.

The Brokers of Exit Realty South, John and Angie Byers, hosted 25+ agents for an intensive training and provided lunch with the compliments of Grubb Properties Inc. It was an awesome experience to be with such intent group of Realtors committed to taking their success to the next level; in attendance were Jim Barnett, Stephanie Blanton, Debby Byers, Lizette Constance, Suzi Daugherty, Maria Ferreira, Shirley Ghorshi, Karen Gillespie, Shannon Griffith, Joan Hileman, Vernon Jackson, Adriana Jaramillo, Sonya Leonard, Rick Mabe, Lori Marlow, Andy McPherson, Kathi Minter, Paris Michelle Morgan, Kim Privette, Brandy Sellers, Andrew Thigpen, and Nancy Winters. (February 12th, 2009)

So what's with "Control Key?" - No No... we are not trying to control "Key," that's a different class altogether... it's "Ctrl-K" - as in hold the "Ctrl" Key down and hit K to create links!!! (Enough said... those of you who were there get it!!!)

	"Hi Key! Once again you delivered a powerful and fun class! You did not disappoint. I will tell you that I attended a two day CRS workshop on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week and paid 5 times the amount of your class and I walked away with 10 times the value from your class. Just the hint about using Google docs to cut and paste my entire article instead of using word will save me so much time. I look forward to the next class with you. Thank you for your energy and for sharing your knowledge with us! You are wonderful and I would recommend this class to anyone (on the other hand..............maybe I should keep you a secret!)" - Sonya Leonard, Statesville NC.

	"Key, words can't express how excited I now am about blogging! The light finally went on in my head and now I understand it. I have started on my first blog and will keep in touch with you. I am proof that you can teach a "middle aged" dog new tricks! Thanks so much, Debby Byers Exit Realty South, Charlotte, N.C." - Bebby Myers, Charlotte NC.

	"Key, I just wanted to say thanks for allowing my coworkers and I the opportunity to capture a few minutes of your training with John yesterday. You were amazing and I loved your energy. Kristi and I would love to attend one of your classes in the near future. Thanks again and have a great afternoon." - Stacy Danner\|Senior Residential Broker, Grubb Properties, Inc.

I kid you not when I say I can't set my own digital alarm clock, play a DVD on the TV (there are 3 remotes!), play the PS3, or turn on the Wii! I have to get my 13 year old son to help me do all the above! Thanks to you Key, I can blog now. Watch out Charleston real estate market, the old dog has learned some new tricks! Sincerely," - Logan Simmons.

	"Key, I appreciate the job you do and the way you do it. I have attended hundreds of training sessions in my long career path. I am secure in saying you have one the best! I have created my website, and I am taking baby steps. I will need your help. Thank You" - Tim Rodgers

Charlotte Real Estate Blog Strategy Training Feb 12

Realtor Training Seminar Thursday 2/12/2009

PDF version of Charlotte Blogging Strategy

The Brokers of Exit Realty in Charlotte North Carolina, John Byers, Suzi Daugherty, and Mike Rash are bringing Key Yessaad again to hold a special training on Real Estate Blogging Strategy Thursday February 12^th, 2009.

This training Seminar was designed to enhance the ability of Real Estate Professionals to compete in an ever increasing spirited Internet Landscape...

The Original name of the course was "Google Loves Bloggers," to reveal the fact that if your blog posts are not "Search Engine Indexed" and lead back to you in a natural way then the effort is for not.

The questions a Real Estate Professional should help their clients answer are the following:

"How can I tell that you have expertise in your Real Estate Market?"

"Can I validate you online and "Google You" with Buzz around your Market expertise?"

"Is the information I find online about you fluff or substance?"

Location: Exit Realty South - (Thank you John And Angie Byers)
4401 Barclay Downs Dr, Ste 1, Charlotte, NC 28209 - (704) 376-5153

Date: Tuesday, February 12^th, 2009 - 9:30am (please start arriving at 9am)

Duration: 4.5 hours - ample breaks will be offered.

Cost: $45 (please make checks payable to: Key Yessaad and hand them to your broker. I asked them to hold the checks until I have delivered the training.)

Course Description: (please read what follows to understand the intention of the course.)

Real Estate Blogging Strategy Training Session Details:

I designed this Seminar as a Real Estate Strategy for Visibility, Expertise, and Search Engine Ranking. You will learn the following:

What is Blogging? - Very short time spent on this topic because the strategy is more important than the why.
Why should Realtors Blog? Do I really need to do this?
How are successful Real Estate Agents using this medium to position themselves?
Where should I blog? My website right? not really!!!
What should I blog about? And how often?
What if the format of a good blog? At least can you get me started...? Do I have to become a writer? How about links?
What does all this have to do with Google? Is this SEO? (Could you explain SEO briefly for us?)
How much programming should I learn? (Let me give you the answer right here - ZERO!!!)
How expensive is this whole strategy? Think time, perseverance, and elbow grease...
How can my assistant help me with this?
Does this strategy really work? And how fast? Can you show us examples?

I tell your Broker / Owner that I promise not to waste your Realtors' time and will arm them with information they need to compete online... I keep my promises...

	"What a fabulous training session!! Knowing that I needed to get on the website "bus" before it got completely out of sight was my motivation to attend your training session here in Charlotte on January 5th. My 2009 motto: New Year and New Strategies for Success. I not only learned valuable information that I will be able to put to use right away ( Can you say Blogging..Where Content is King!) you have excited me about diving in to this heretofore scary place. After your enthusiastic and thorough training, the only people who aren't motivated to get rolling with this are either dead or in a coma. Thank you and I look forward to your next training session here in Charlotte in February." - Joan Hileman.

	"Your Web Strategy training was one of the best trainings I've ever taken. I'm so glad I attended. The information was exactly what I've been looking for and your style of teaching is superb. With your sheer enthusiasm and extremely valuable information, I would find it truly impossible for anyone to fall asleep in one of your classes! I look forward to your class on Blogging. Thank you so much!" - Nancy Winters.

	"I loved your Web Strategy class in Charlotte, NC. It was phenomenal!! Your energy and enthusiasm is contagious. Your passion for what you do reveals your ability to teach and empower everyone that attends your classes. I can't wait for the next class!!! Much Success!" - Suzi Davis Daugherty.

	Key I want to thank you for coming to Charlotte and helping all of us at EXIT Premier. Andy was EXTREMELY impressed and said after so many years in real estate I have never had a class that gave so much knowledge. As for me well, I think your the VERY BEST. Exit did a GREAT job by having you teach us what we need to learn. I am implimenting everything you gave us in the class. As a matter of fact I am waitting for Jyl to call me back. You're awesome and I love you. Thanks for everything! You are the BOMB!!!!! Cant wait to attend another one of your training classes! - Lizette Constance.

	"Thank you so much for offering this training on web strategy. It is great to see your passion and enthusiasm. I would recommend any agent that has the time and energy to invest in their web strategy and their business to sign up for the next class available with Key. In fact I would recommend it sooner than later because one day soon Key will figure out the info is near priceless and he might try to charge what it is worth! (Ha Ha) You can pay thousands to the big SEO companies or you take the classes offered by Key and do it yourself." - Jason Jacques.

Real Estate Web & Blogging Strategy

Going beyond the Web Jargon and into a Successful Real Estate Strategy

This course was designed to enhance the ability of Real Estate Professionals to compete in an ever increasing spirited Internet Landscape...

Bring your assistant, your web guru, your cousin Vinnie who dabbles in websites - they will learn how to help you focus on the most important part about having a Real Estate website. Realtor Websites are of a different nature than regular ones - I will explain all this in the class... (Please make sure you check with your Brokers as to room availability...)

I will cover the following topics in the Seminar:

Essential ideas of Real Estate Marketing online...
What does it mean to compete online and how to be successful?
Elements of a Real Estate Website and how they work to create visibility...
Do the ideas help our Buyers and Sellers with their Real Estate needs?
What is Google Juice and how do I get some...?
Can I run my Own Web Strategy or do I need to hire a team of experts (Let me answer this here... YES YOU CAN!!! - Worse... YES YOU MUST!!!)
What are the habits of a successful Internet marketing Strategy?
What is the structure of a Web Page and how to make it Google-Friendly?
What is IDX? Can I benefit from having it?
What's the difference between a Blog and a Web Page?
Should I become a Blogger and why? - in fact can you explain this blogging thing?
How to Blog effectively and generate traffic?
If they come will I be ready??? (Think about this...)
Do the ideas behind Web and Blogging Strategy really work? Can you show examples? (YES to both and you can participate and enter the fray right now!!!)
How do I use my assistant to succeed? And how about hiring an SEO company or an experienced Tech Guru to get started - is that a good idea?
I already have a website but I get nothing from it; what should I do?

I will have time for all your questions... Remember: bringing your tech guy/gal to this class will help you and will focus him/her on your Real Estate Web needs...

	"Thank you for an unbelievable class yesterday! I have been "somewhat" in touch with technology over the years but you really showed me how far behind I have fallen. Your class was excellent and precisely what is needed to be competitive in today's real estate market. The depth of knowledge and ideas you shared were priceless! Also, the specific plan of action to implement these ideas really sets you apart from all the other trainers. You have truly empowered me to get my real estate web strategy back on track!" - Ed Flowers.

	"Wow, does not begin to describe the high intensity learning experience you will receive by attending Key Yessaad's web strategy training. This is the type of information that can be intimidating for agents and brokers alike. Key's incredible knowledge and entertaining teaching style will break it down into small bites that everyone will be able to digest." - Joe Nester.

	"The information was nothing short of astounding! I am consistently amazed at the progression technology makes and even better how we utilize these tools for our clients benefit. I know that all of the agents who participated, left the seminar more knowledgeable about how we can help our clients and increase our business! Thanks Key (again) for giving us a peek behind the web curtain!" - Brandon Liles.

	"Key, as promised your seminar today was great. As you know this is the second time I have attended this training and it was even more beneficial the second time around. It was great to see the excitement on the faces of the attendees and know that they are being empowered to move their career forward. I know I speak for my office when I say we can't wait to have you back in March." - Craig Summerall.

	"Thank you so much for yesterday! It was a really great session, and I told my husband last night that three hours with you flew by!! Thank you for keeping it interesting and fun. I got your message. I'm on the way out the door to meet with a client, but I do want to chat with you. I feel like I have a lot to digest. I've begun working on my bio, and I want to spend the next few days working on my "assignment" from you and reviewing the notes from your training session." - Katherine Mappus.

South Carolina Brokers facilitate Real Estate Web Strategy Training 1/22/2009

Real Estate Web Trainer, LLC. — Fri, 23 Jan 2009 23:42:11 -0600

Exit Realtors from Columbia to Lexington SC gain an edge to compete Online - South Carolina Brokers facilitate Real Estate Web Strategy Training...

Exit Broker Craig Summerall joined by Ed Flowers, Brandon Liles, and Joe B. Nester held an Internet Strategy Training for their Real Estate Professionals in Columbia South Carolina. The training was enthusiastically attended by 25 Agents: Craig Augenstein, Julia Ayers, Ed Flowers, Evelyn Gibson, Tonya D. Graves, Mark Ilderton, Holly Kearse-Jolley, Brandon Liles, Meg Liles, Bill McCarter, Betsy S. Nagel, Ed Neeley, Ellyn Nester, Joe B. Nester, Joseph Piccinini, Nancy Pitts, Cathie Saucier, Paul Saucier, Lisa Sills, Renay Stewart, Mary M. Stuckey, Craig Summerall, Cat Thornton, Jean Toney, and Derrell W. Wells.

Real Estate and Internet Strategy are concepts walled-off by ignorance...; the 6-hour training, Real Estate Web Strategy, drives the essential idea that Realtors must create the conditions of organic connectivity with and for their clients wherever they happen to be... Success is driven by Real Estate Agencies that re-arrange their business model to such interactions.

"Thank you for your enthusiasm and insight into the enigmatic world of web design. We look forward to putting in place a long term web strategy to increase our sales and Internet presence and will most assuredly enlist your expertise." - Joseph (JP) Piccinini.

"I just wanted to e-mail you and let you know that I enjoyed your class yesterday. I have already started to work on all the information you gave us. I am so glad I had the opportunity to be there. I would highly recommend your class to any real estate agent that is serious about being successful in this modern market. I was totally confused about web sites until your class, and as you spoke it was like someone turned on the lights." It clicked". I now have a plan and will be busy implementing it. I just want to say again, Thanks for the knowledge that you shared with us, and for your willingness to even stay later than planned to share more. Thanks and May God Bless You in all you do Sincerely," - Derrell Wells.

"Key - What a treat! Thank you! Thank you! So glad I attended! I left with the feeling I could reach the top of Mt Everest with my web page! Can't wait till we meet again! Thankfully," - Holly Jolley.

Laptop Shopping List for Realtors

Real Estate Web Trainer, LLC. — Mon, 19 Jan 2009 07:27:42 -0600

Laptop Shopping List

A few Things REALTORs should keep in mind
By Key Yessaad - Real Estate Trainer - Updated 11/8/2008
PDF version: Realtor-Laptop-Shopping-List.pdf

Real Estate Professionals ask me all the time... "What laptop should I get Key?" and I always tell them: The cheapest one you can get your hands on. That's Right!!! The cheapest as long as it combines some the basics I describe in this article are met. Consumers and Realtors overbuy their technology needs because a lot of flash trumps facts. There are a few things that will make you a Savvy Laptop Shopper - the good news is: competition is fierce and prices are great...

So what should you keep in mind before you buy your next Laptop:

Think of your laptop as a disposal tool and don't expect it to last you more than 3 years. Buying an Extended Warranty is a waste for the most part - ask the experts.
Shop around and avoid impulse buying - your budget should be between $500 and $700; and always give yourself 2 to 3 weeks (models go on sale all the time.) if you have a trusty IT in-house do consult with him or her. In fact take this list with you: he/she will have a nice chuckle!
Remember I write for REALTORs: DO NOT GET A MAC!!! I can't believe I wrote that. I am a Mac-Geek and I love Apple. But if you want to become the coolest complainer about why certain features don't work properly with your MLS, your Forms Software, your GIS Software, etc... then get a Mac. PS: you will have to also increase your budget quite a bit - the cheapest acceptable MacBook is $1,300+ (PPS: the latest thin MacBook Air looks really cool!)
Base Memory is what you need the most of: 2GB of RAM is the minimum. Most systems are sold with base memory of 512MB or 1GB - make sure you are upgraded to 2GB and for FREE; most will throw it in to make the sale. 3GB for Vista is what I recommend and most of the systems I have seen lately come with at least that much.
Storage 60, 80, 120GB - it's all the same: You will not need more than that. Don't spend any more money to get more storage - unlike RAM very few of you will ever fill an 80GB HardDrive.
A 15.4" Widescreen is the norm - I don't recommend 14" screens unless you are going for a sub-notebook and you want the lightest laptop. 17" would be nice but they tend to be too bulky and not easy to carry around...
An Intel Celeron M or Intel Core 2 Duo of any flavor is fine - going for high speed in GHz will not make a difference in your day to day work. Buying GHz will mean nothing in your day-today operations - but RAM does (see #4.)
CD/DVD Burner should be standard - Allows you to burn your documents to a CD or DVD on a monthly basis. (Remember backup your data regularly.)
All Laptops come with a built-in Wireless Network Chip. You should not have to pay more for this. Make sure it is built-in!
Ask for Windows Vista Home Premium at a minimum - Vista Home Basic is absolutely NOT adequate.
You should not spend more than $800 for the aggregate. A good deal would be $600 or less; and yes you can find them. If you are patient and buy a laptop when you don't need you can find deals under $500.
What brand should you get is a different story - you decide. I usually look for deals from Dell, HP, Toshiba, & even Sony (expensive for the most part).
Don't share your computer with other people. If you keep your laptop focused on your Real Estate business you will have a tendency to have fewer risks of viruses and less conflicts due to change of settings. The less hands the better... if you have kids it is best to have a home computer for them that you monitor and have Parental Software on. Trust me when I say this - don't let your kids use your Real Estate Laptop - they will reconfigure the settings with their own tricks and it will drive you crazy.
Spend an extra $50 and buy a Wireless Mouse - it will make your life easy.
Adjust the above criteria if you plan to use this laptop for other endeavors besides Real Estate.

But Wait Key my Tech friend says I should not buy a Vista-based Laptop.

Vista does have some glitches, most of which occur when attempting to install legacy software... If you don't have to buy a laptop right away then wait... but if you are in the market most come pre-configured with Vista and so long as you don't install old software you will be fine. I prefer XP but unfortunately we live in the real world and we must use the tools we have at the ready to do the best we can for our customers.

Always defer to your local Tech/IT guy/gal - they really know a lot about this stuff. They sometimes get caught up in the Geeky Jargon - but forgive them; they really mean well!!!

PS: No Geek was harmed in the making of this Shopping List.

You are now ready - now let's sell some Real Estate!!!

Real Estate Internet Visibility exceeds the design needs of your website…

Real Estate Web Trainer, LLC. — Sun, 18 Jan 2009 13:30:16 -0600

Real Estate Internet Strategy exceeds the design needs of your website...

It never fails... As a Real Estate Web Strategist, Brokers and Realtors seek my opinion and consent on the look of their websites... and I do understand their need for such an assessment... After all we all seek validation...

Deep down I want to tell them: "I don't care; it matters little;" but I don't have the heart to be that blunt... After all, as a trainer and coach, I am driven to inspire Realtors to produce Results on the internet!!!

So what is the truth???

Design and Aesthetics do matter... But if you are lacking function and strategy the exercise is for NOT!!!

If your efforts don't lead to Google Visibility then you are worried about being "liked" and not focused on what your Buyers, Sellers, and Search Engines care for most!!! (In fact, I say: "Google forces you to take care of your clients... so, will you?")

Your Real Estate Strategy must lead to Google and back to your Real Estate Tools and Services, the ones your customers are craving... So please talk about design and looks, and do get excited when your logo and your photo look good, but let's not pretend that's The Journey you are supposed to undertake to succeed online...

I hate the term SEO, Search Engine Optimization, because it leads many to think that Internet Visibility is a rigged game... but time and time again I have proven to brokers and realtors that such visibility is organic... so ask yourself: how can I serve my buyers and sellers in my local Real Estate Market... emphasis on "Local..."

So are you asking such questions?

As a previous Art Director for an advertising Agency in New York City with 10 years of experience I am here to tell you that most Realtors and Brokers are focused on the wrong thing... do you want me to share a secret with you... you are not going to like it... but if you have read this far then I owe you that much... Advertisers and Marketers understand that Real Estate Professionals are vane: "Their ego is bigger than their business..." so if you want to sell them something show them goods and services that promote their name, pictures, and egos and they will pay you a bundle of money... in fact many of them are told and believe: "The Real Estate Business is about the Realtor - not the customers..."

Am I right?

The days of the web being about your ego are over unfortunately... The internet pays those who serve their Buyers and Sellers with Internet tools that are localized and lead to the satisfaction of the user... and at the heart of it is Google... Are you trained to go beyond your ego???

So is this Blog Self-serving... YES!!!

I want your broker to hire to train you on the right Web Strategy... and ask you to be as candid with your clients as I am with you... they can read your intention anyway... so be competent and honest!!! Ask the Realtors and Brokers who have attended my Training Seminars and you will understand that they are in touch with something larger than products and vendors...

I welcome your comments... and truly wish you the best in 2009!!!

	"What a fabulous training session!! Knowing that I needed to get on the website "bus" before it got completely out of sight was my motivation to attend your training session here in Charlotte on January 5th.

Real Estate Web Strategy

Going beyond the Jargon and into a Successful Internet Real Estate Strategy

Do you plan to get a website? Do you have a website that's stagnant? Do you feel overwhelmed with the whole endeavor? This is the Seminar for you... many of you have sluggish web strategies that are not producing any results... so what to do?

I designed this course to go beyond the mere discussion of need; to the design of a Real Estate Web Strategy that drives traffic and results. You will leave empowered and with a plan of action and a full-understanding of what is currently happening in the realm of Real Estate Websites.

I am Vendor-Agnostic and will share with you what I have seen work; I will show you what to demand from your vendor and will help you make the right decision. It is not the Vendor that matters; it is your habits and discipline I am going to focus on...

This course was designed to enhance the ability of Real Estate Professionals to compete in an ever increasing spirited Internet Landscape...

This course used to be called: "I don't have a Web Strategy - How do I get started?" It has now evolved to include all the major topics of Real Estate Internet Strategies. Bring your assistant, your web guru, your cousin Vinnie who dabbles in websites - they will learn how to help you focus on the most important part about having a Real Estate website. Realtor Websites are of a different nature than regular ones - I will explain all this in the class...

I will cover the following topics in the Seminar:

Should you get a Real Estate website? And why?

How do you select the best Web Services Company? What are the important tools of a Real Estate Website?

Domain Names: How do I get one? Where and How much?
Should I get more than one? And why? How do I hook them up together?

How do I get started?
Will I be able to understand the Web jargon? (Let me give you the answer: Yes)

How expensive is it going to be? (I will show you how to get started for FREE!)

How much work will I have to put in? Is it worth the effort? And how often?

What is IDX? And do I need it? Shouldn't I just use my MLS IDX? And What is Sticky IDX?

How about Blogging? Is it important?

How can my Assistant help me grow my website?

What are Pay-per-clicks? Do they Work and generate leads?

I will have time for all your questions... Remember: bringing your tech guy/gal to this class will help you and will focus him/her on your Real Estate Web needs...

Read what Exit Charlotte Agents had to say about the training on 1/6/2009

"What a fabulous training session!! Knowing that I needed to get on the website "bus" before it got completely out of sight was my motivation to attend your training session here in Charlotte on January 5th. My 2009 motto: New Year and New Strategies for Success. I not only learned valuable information that I will be able to put to use right away ( Can you say Blogging..Where Content is King!) you have excited me about diving in to this heretofore scary place. After your enthusiastic and thorough training, the only people who aren't motivated to get rolling with this are either dead or in a coma. Thank you and I look forward to your next training session here in Charlotte in February." - Joan Hileman.

A Recommendation from a Broker: Jay Tracey - 11/16/2008 - Attended Real Estate Web Strategy 11/15/2008 in Charleston "As Broker-in-Charge and Owner of an Exit Realty franchise, I have had the opportunity to meet many trainers, coaches, and consultants over the last 10 years. None approach Keys unique ability. A quick look in the dictionary for the word 'energy' and you will find Keys bio attached. Keys presentations about Blogging, Website strategies, and click marketing are absolutely eye opening. You can't help but be 100% involved as Key brings his incredible knowledge and unprecedented enthusiasm to all of his presentations. Any Corporation would be lucky to land this rising star. Thanks Key, for all you have done for us. Jay Tracey."

Let me share a useful link tip to your group...

Real Estate Web Trainer, LLC. — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 20:59:36 -0600

"Blog Comments" are important in creating marketing visibility for Realtors... The problem is that Real Estate Agents tend to overdo everything they learn as a tip or trick...

I am always hesitant to share snippets of Internet Marketing because if abused or misused they tend to penalize the user...

I recommend that each participants in your group create a "short market phrase snippet" such as:

Paul Hockaday - Wilmington NC Realtor

and Place it at the end of the comment they write.

It is a pseudo-signature that links back to the website of the agent making the comment.

It needs to be short. sweet and understated...

It builds Links back to the comment poster organically!!! (caution: those who overdo it may be penalized by Google.)

I hope it helps your group!!! Keep going... you are absolutely on the right track!!! Best!!!

"Your Web Strategy training was one of the best trainings I've ever taken. I'm so glad I attended. The information was exactly what I've been looking for and your style of teaching is superb. With your sheer enthusiasm and extremely valuable information, I would find it truly impossible for anyone to fall asleep in one of your classes! I look forward to your class on Blogging. Thank you so much!" - Nancy Winters.

"I loved your Web Strategy class in Charlotte, NC. It was phenomenal!! Your energy and enthusiasm is contagious. Your passion for what you do reveals your ability to teach and empower everyone that attends your classes. I can't wait for the next class!!! Much Success!" - Suzi Davis Daugherty.

Key I want to thank you for coming to Charlotte and helping all of us at EXIT Premier. Andy was EXTREMELY impressed and said after so many years in real estate I have never had a class that gave so much knowledge.
As for me well, I think your the VERY BEST. Exit did a GREAT job by having you teach us what we need to learn. I am implimenting everything you gave us in the class. As a matter of fact I am waitting for Jyl to call me back.
You're awesome and I love you. Thanks for everything! You are the BOMB!!!!!
Cant wait to attend another one of your training classes! - Lizette Constance.

"Thank you so much for offering this training on web strategy. It is great to see your passion and enthusiasm. I would recommend any agent that has the time and energy to invest in their web strategy and their business to sign up for the next class available with Key. In fact I would recommend it sooner than later because one day soon Key will figure out the info is near priceless and he might try to charge what it is worth! (Ha Ha) You can pay thousands to the big SEO companies or you take the classes offered by Key and do it yourself." - Jason Jacques.

"I attended Key's Real Estate Web Strategy Class yesterday (01-06-09) and learned so much. I would like to take another classes just to "get" what I do not think that I grasped completely. His class is well worth the time and I would highly recommend it to any Agent or Broker." - Shannon Griffith.

Key, This looks fantastic. I have heard nothing but great things about the training. Keep up the good work, and thank you very much for all your hard work. Thanks again. - E. Michael Washburn - Regional Owner of Exit Realty in North and South Carolina.

Email from Greg Bennett at Exit Realty Beaufort SC to Regional Owner: "Incredible, barely describes the level of expertise of Key Yessaad.
I have personally met with web designers, programmers, IT gurus, etc. Their combined knowledge doesn't even equal the holistic approach of Key's understanding of the web.
I have spent tens of 1,000s of dollars for the "perfect" website and lead capture systems, with poor results.
After attending a 4 hour Blog training session with Key, I posted 2 Blogs and was on page 1 of Google in position 1,2 4 and 6 and had 2 sellers contact me within 72 hours !!
After Keys 4 hour Web Strategy class I finally knew that all the self proclaimed experts in the field that I had paid big bucks to, were mostly versed in only one aspect of the web. Key's knowledge of the WEB is the most comprehensive I have ever encountered and he clearly articulates his expertise in a manner that anyone can understand.
Key empowered my agents to ask WEB companies the critical questions to have a WEB site that truly produces results and can organically create quality leads without spending a fortune. He also frees the agents from being dependant on the WEB master that they are at the mercy of.
Any EXIT agent or broker, who thinks they know how the web works with respect to real estate, really needs to attend Key's training. They will find out how much they actually never knew. If Key was able to put 5 North Carolina EXIT offices on page 1 of Google Just imagine what he can do for all of Exit as an International Franchise.
Brokers, owners and agents should not delay in scheduling Key."

Folly Beach Today

Folly Beach is a laid back community affectionately called the "Edge of America". The island is reminiscent of the beach towns of yesterday with one main street filled with restaurants, beach shops and nightlife. There's plenty of local flavor here to go around with artists, musicians, fishermen and surfers adding to the island's eclectic look and feel. (View our most up to date Exit Listings.)

Folly's population is just over 2000, but on a summer day, that number increases drastically. Just 10 minutes from Charleston, it remains a favorite spot for Charlestonians looking to beat the summer heat. Six miles of white sandy beaches provide just the right terrain for shelling, sand castle building or a pick up game of volleyball. The wash-out, found on the eastern side of the island, is considered the premier surf break in the Southeast. The western side of the island offers The Folly Beach County Park complete with restrooms, showers, ample parking and lifeguards.

Folly's pier is 1,000 feet long and perfect for catching fish. There's a tackle shop here as well, to make a fisherman's life that much easier. Parasailing, sea kayaking, bicycle riding, boating ....there's so much to do at Folly every day can be a completely different experience!

This course used to be called: "I don't have a Web Strategy - How do I get started?" It has now evolved to include all the major topics of Real Estate Internet Strategies. Bring your assistant, your web guru, your cousin Vinnie who dabbles in websites - they will learn how to help you focus on the most important part about having a Real Estate website. Realtor Websites are of a different nature than regular ones - I will explain all this in the class...

I will cover the following topics in the Seminar:

Should you get a Real Estate website? And why?

How do you select the best Web Services Company? What are the important tools of a Real Estate Website?

Domain Names: How do I get one?
Where and How much?
Can I get more than one?
How do I hook them up together?
Are there tactics for having several?

How do I get started?
Will I be able to understand the Web jargon? (Let me give you the answer: Yes)

How expensive is it going to be? (I will show you how to get started for FREE!)

How much work will I have to put in? Is it worth the effort?
How often should I work on my website?

What is IDX? And do I need it?
Shouldn't I just use my MLS IDX?
How is that different than Sticky IDX?

How about Blogging? Is it important?

How can my Assistant help me grow my website?

What are Pay-per-clicks?
Do they Work and generate leads?
How much should I spend to get the most leads?

I will have time for all your questions... Remember: bringing your tech guy/gal to this class will help you and will focus him/her on your Real Estate Web needs...

I tell your Broker/Owner that I promise not to waste your Realtors' time and will arm them with information they need to compete online... that is my commitment to you!

Exit Realty of Beaufort holds a Successful Blogging Training

Exit Realty of Beaufort, led by Shelia and Greg Bennett, held a Real Estate Blogging Strategy Training Seminar Thursday November 21^st with a strong participation of their Real Estate Agents... The session, led by Key Yessaad, focused on the necessity of Beaufort Realtors to find a direct path of connection with their Buyers and Sellers in the Greater Beaufort area and how Blogging opens that path organically.

The 4-hour training seminar was well received and well attended by Shelia Bennett, Greg Bennett, Jeanne Swain, Gayle Keeling, Lisa Brown, Janice Baker, Tony Hagwood, Richard Neill, Perry Allmond, Kathy Baker, Mary Strick, Kathy Moses, Melissa Evans, and David Thompson.

The demanding course did challenge the Realtors on their preconceived notions of what blogging is, and ended with a commitment of the Beaufort Agents to a plan of action that will be submitted to their Broker in Charge Mr. Greg Bennett. Exit Realty of Beaufort is now on track to add a valuable tool to benefit all their customers in the Beaufort SC Real Estate Market.

Some of what a few of the agent had to say:

After an exciting class in Beaufort, SC today I am so much farther ahead in just a few hours than I got in 3 years. Key, your commitment to personal development for Realtors is much appreciated.

Beaufort Real Estate Company holding Web Strategy Training

Real Estate Web Trainer, LLC. — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 12:11:45 -0600

Beaufort SC Real Estate Company to hold Web Strategy Training

Exit Realty of Beaufort South Carolina will hold a Strategic Training for its Real Estate Professionals Thursday November 20th on the rapid changes occurring on the Internet and how Blogging has become crucial to the dissemination of relevant local information. Although the media keeps viewing Real Estate as a national event its ramifications are local and varied... the old adage that Real Estate is Local remains not only true it keeps getting reinforced by the demands of the public; Beaufort Real Estate Professionals must gear their expertise and translate it online in an effective and organic fashion.

Key Yessaad of Real Estate Web Trainer LLC will lead the 4-hour Seminar working closely with Greg Bennett, the Broker / Owner of Exit Realty of Beaufort. The Seminar is a practical approach on the right habits Realtors must develop in conjunction with a plan of action.

Real Estate Blogging Strategy

Local Content drives Expertise and Connectivity for the benefit of Real Estate Buyers and Sellers

This course was designed to enhance the ability of Real Estate Professionals to compete in an ever increasing spirited Internet Landscape...

The Original name of the course was "Google Loves Bloggers," to reveal the fact that if your blogging posts are not "Search Engine Archived" and lead back to you in a natural way then the effort is for not.

The questions A Real Estate Professional should help their clients answer are the following:

"How can I tell that you have expertise in your Real Estate Market?"

"Can I validate you online and "Google You" with Buzz around your Market expertise?"

"Is the information I find online about you fluff or substance?"

Blogging Training Session Details:

I designed this Seminar as a Real Estate Strategy for Visibility, Expertise, and Search Engine Ranking. You will learn the following:

What is Blogging? - Very short time spent on this topic because the strategy is more important than the why.

Why should Realtors Blog? Do I really need to do this?

How are successful Real Estate Agents using this medium to position themselves?

Where should I blog? My website right? not really!!!

What should I blog about? And how often?

What if the format of a good blog? At least can you get me started...? Do I have to become a writer? How about links?

What does all this have to do with Google? Is this SEO? (Could you explain SEO briefly for us?)

How much programming should I learn? (Let me give you the answer right here - ZERO!!!)

How expensive is this whole strategy? Think time, perseverance, and elbow grease...

How can my assistant help me with this?

Does this strategy really work? And how fast? Can you show us examples?

I tell your Borker /Owner that I promise not to waste your Realtors' time and will arm them with information they need to compete online...

Training Duration: 4 hours is best for this material to be absorbed... This training takes on 2 hours of course-work but the additional 2 hours are necessary for agents questions and comfort level! It is about empowering Real Estate Agents to immerse themselves in this realm...

Real Estate Trainer Launches 4 Technology Seminars driven by Customer Demands…

Real Estate Web Trainer, LLC. — Fri, 14 Nov 2008 16:14:50 -0600

Real Estate Training Seminars Launched

Key Yessaad, the Real Estate Trainer for Real Estate Web Trainer LLC, launches four (4) essential Seminars to enhance the career of Real Estate Professionals. The Training focuses on the crossroads of Web Technology, Business habits, and Plans of action that deliver results for both the Realtor to the benefit of Real Estate Consumers.

Information abounds on the internet but thoughtful localized and organized Real Estate information is woefully lacking. It is the job of the Brokers and the Real Estate Practitioners to be in the forefront of the public needs.

The Training Seminars focus on empowering Realtors not only on what to do with the information but to also learn to catalogue and make it available to their customers. Helping the public make informed decisions in important Real Estate Transactions are the driving forces of all REALTORs.

The core Real Estate Web Training Sessions at the heart of empowering Real Estate Professionals to compete online.

Real Estate Blogging Strategy

Can we officially declare Websites “dead”; well not quite; but they are no longer in the forefront of any thoughtful Real Estate Web Strategy that nurtures the needs of Real Estate Buyers and Sellers. This class was designed to help Brokers and Realtors understand this new paradigm shift and empower Realtors, Buyers, and Sellers to meet and interact in a new way…

Real Estate Web Strategy

Whether you plan to get a website, have a website, or feel overwhelmed with the whole endeavor - this class is for you... many of you have stagnants strategies that are not producing results... so what to do? I designed this course to go beyond the mere discussion of need to the design of a Real Estate Web Startegy that drives traffic and results. You will leave empowered and with a plan of action and a full-understanding of what is currently happening in the realm of Real Estate Websites.

Real Estate Click Marketing Success

Click Marketing or Pay per Click is an Art... in fact many Aggregators package this knowlege and charge you for capturing leads in your market... Real Estate Click marketing produces Results and your competition is making a mountain of mistakes... Bring this course to your agents and teach them to compete in this important Real Estate Arena...

Real Estate Database Strategy

Successful Real Estate Professionals understand that the business of Real Estate is the Business of People - in other words The Referral Business. Unfortunately most Realtors are lost in a mountain of Data and don’t know how to use the tools of organization that actually produce results... Remember it is our job to stay in touch with our current and past clients... (NOT theirs…)

Real Estate Blogging is not just about information; It's about human connection…

Real Estate Web Trainer, LLC. — Fri, 07 Nov 2008 14:51:11 -0600

The world of REALTORs dragging customers to Real Estate Websites is shifting; Websites now play a supporting role (and the Oscar for Best Supporting Website goes to...) - what happened? It's a world of Social Networking and Focused Search... so how do you thread this needle - Blogging!!!

Real Estate Blogging has become an equalizing force in the armor of Real Estate Professionals; in essence it forces REALTORs to connect with the demands of their customers; a trend driven by the needs of Buyers and Sellers - gone are the days of "put the listing in the MLS and wait for the contracts!" Buyers and Sellers demand Value-Added services and validation of professionalism.

Blogging forces expertise to rise and for Real Estate Practitioners to hone their knowledge and market proficiency for the service of their customers... Blogging rejuvenates the old adage "All Real Estate is Local!" by forcing REALTORs and Brokers to offer related information such as Neighborhood, Schools, Municipalities, Lifestyle, Economy, that is updated and strung together by the know-how of the prepared and skilled Real Estate Professional.

So what to make of websites? - think of them as the warehouse of your archived Blogs together with the necessary tools for Property Search, Financing, Mapping, and much much more... Then think of Blogs as your mechanism to reach out and interact with your customers; if you don't do it someone else will - in fact they are... Blogs add an organic way for Real Estate Professionals to reach the general public and help them negotiate the various layers of the Real Estate transaction.

How about Google? It's your best friend in this journey; stop thinking of Google as the big mean giant that every SEO (Search Engine Optimization) Expert makes you fear; think of it as cuddly lovable "Big Bird" full of intelligence and the best of allies... that's right Google is your best friend... It loves you and it's time for you to love it back... show it some sugar by Blogging... you do your part it does its by archiving you in the proper category... In fact try to think of Google as a collective intelligence of all your Real Estate Buyers and Sellers - don't you feel better already!!!

So Start Blogging and Start Connecting...
