Troy McClain, Warren Buffet, Donald Trump, Bill Gates - 08/31/07 10:08 PM
Two Hours of Presentation and interview with Danny Morel of Telos. Troy McClain was more than able to hold his own with home spun wisdom, an uncanny knack for the market and a dream of being big.
He simply told his story. Like some of the best teachers of all times, he dressed the statement, the point , reason for why you are listening in a story, but then he delivered the punch line. He was not afraid to tell this group "write this down"  Who were we? 400 Real Estate Agents, Brokers, Lenders, Title officers and several others who wanted to … (0 comments)

Roofing with the Rossi Company - 08/27/07 11:42 PM
Spray a foam, it is a mixture at the right temperature with the right consistency and for a flat roof you have created a water tight roofing environment. Richard and I were talking, looking over the finishing marks of the repairs to the Pine Ridge house and the total re-roofing of the backyard barn. We were spending some of that valuable time that a Realtor gets to spend with a person who is knowledgeable in the area of his work.  A few minutes a few questions  and current information concerning roofing. Not that I would ever pretend with a client that … (0 comments)

Richard Rossi Roofing Certification vs Warrenty - 08/26/07 09:33 AM
What is the difference between certification of a roof and warranty of a roof.  Richard is also a home appraiser. Therefore his knowledge base is more than just roofs. He has endured the 2000 hours of field instruction under the guidance of another appraiser who "knows that he is training his competition"
In a Nutshell, We are standing on the roof at Pine Ridge home in Apple Valley and Mr Rossi Roofing says
"Certification is when I inspect a roof and will certify that it will not leak for one, two, or three years. Warrenty is when I have repaired or replace the … (0 comments)

The Technology of Treo's, Trials, Tungsten T's - 08/25/07 07:55 AM
First, Daniel broke his phone, cell phone in half. Not to bad, since it still worked but not good since it wasn't designed to function that way. So Marcia says,"time to get a new phone Val and give yours to your son." Well, since I am very frugal, I will think about it. However, in the back of my mind the words of Danny Morel- owner of Telos are ringing- if you don't have a Treo or a Blackberry you are not in business in the  real estate business. So I guess it is time.
This will be great. I can … (3 comments)

Roofing and Richard Rossi and Pine Ridge - 08/24/07 09:00 AM
First of All This is a Commercial, an Advertisement, an Announcement, a Broadcast,a sound-byte, a reel Clip, Etc.
One of the listing under Exit Desert Ocean Realty Broker-ship needed a new roof. Not the whole thing but a significant part. Not considered a replacement but a fix. Almost half of the roof needed replacement. The roof had been fixed by the prior owner, however the roll had pulled up and the laying of some of the material didn't take into consideration the flow of water. The job required the removal of a 4'by 4' skylight. A corner that would stop up was … (0 comments)

Have you attended a Mega Camp? - 08/23/07 10:41 PM
To say it was a great time filled with AHA's just doesn't say enough. There is anticipation in the air. There is one of Austin's Finest Guitarist Van Wilks on Stage and it is only 8:00 am in the morning. Already I am out of my normal meeting box.
Gary Keller the co author of Million Dollar Agent is the CEO/founder of Keller Williams Realty.  He is on stage, slim, well read, witty and more than able to put his finger on the pulse of the market having been in real estate from the early 80's. And more importantly having ridden the … (0 comments)

Asking for Referrals - 08/19/07 09:03 AM
My phone rings.  It is a lead sales person for a company that promises, "We will put you on the front page of MSN, GOOGLE, YAHOO, ETC"  After several minutes of listening and showing "interest" and "curious" I am handled over to a closer "senior project manager"  He proceeds to lead me through a series of questions that can only be answered by yes otherwise I would look like an idiot. Then the bottom line.
For a 20 key phrase first page package $2999 and for a 40 key phrase first page package $4999 but wait today only with an unbelievable offer, … (3 comments)

I received a call from a man interested in becoming an agent with Exit Desert Ocean REalty in the Victorville area of California. We had met once. At Fed Ex. He has been in business for years with various fields of endevor.
What impressed me was his comments about my business card, This might be important since I buy 3 to 5 thousand cards at a time. He said that my Hollywood face was to big. That how I looked was really important to only me.  He said that the information concerning my particular office was too big and that nobody would … (3 comments)

Presentation on the market - 08/18/07 11:09 PM
I attended a very interesting meeting this last Thursday morning. It was called the Automatic Market. The event was open to all realtors and sponsored by Chicago Title.
The speaker was frank. He spoke about the difficulties that you and I as realtors face in any market.
About he excuses we make. then he offered his solution. A different way to present what the market is doing but in such a common sense way that as a realtor you have total intergity.
When it was done I have decided to change my approach to listing and to sharing with client why they … (1 comments)
