The Real Estate Roller Coaster Video - History of Home Prices since 1890

This Roller Coaster Graph is an actual graph showing the Real Estate Market Prices from 1890 to PRESENT! Take a ride through history on this clever creation, and see what kind of breath taking experience we have experienced over the years! Be sure to watch the lower right corner under the youtube logo to see what year you're actually in. At the end of the video, it shows the graph from which this video analogy or metaphor was created. WOW! Finally a ride and post we can all enjoy, and then go get a carmel apple or some cotton candy! LOL!

The question after this ride is, "What loops, turns, drops, tunnels and climbs do the next 10 years hold for Real Estate Home prices?" The thing to remember that is the most important..."ENJOY THE RIDE!"

Be sure to check out the NEW GROUP - "Active Rain Virtual Tours" for your next great Real Estate Ride using "Virtual Tours." Let's get the video rolling on Active Rain!! It's time for Lights, Cameras, and Action!

Wow, neat way to illustrate what has been happening with real estate!

Chris - I thought this was really cool, I had such anticipation for the end of the ride....glad it ends the way it does. BTW - If you have any Virtual Tour Listings, please post them in the NEW GROUP above: Active Rain Virtual Tour Group! Thanks Chris. :-)

It is a little heartstopping to think about. I will definately see about posting my VT's to the group! Thanks!!!

Brad,

You got me dizzy..I was on that ride a few weeks ago:)

Well, I watched all 3.41 minutes of it. Good illustration but I didn't like the last of it and not sure I agree. We are on a journey and it does have twists and turns. I do enjoy the ride. I think for Ann Arbor we are on the slow climb back to the top.

Oh did I mention, I NEVER ride roller coasters. My kids love them, but not me. Even the milder ones.

That was an interesting concept and different presentation.

I shouldn't have boarded this ride so early in the morning! It's making my coffee slosh around and now my caramel apple is stuck in my hair! Ouch!

how cool is that! and I want that software! Never a disappointment with you, Brad!

A very exciting look at some very boring numbers, thanks.

Hey Brad - Fun ride! Looking forward to the next up grade!

Thanks Chris

Neal - you dizzy? I don't think so!! LOL! :-)

Missy - you may not like roller coasters, but it's clear you like the Real Estate Coaster Ride! :-)
I wondered how many would actually watch the video, and then come back to comment.

Nestor - my thoughts exactly, that's why I had to post it! Haven't seen anything like that before.

Lizette - you CRACK me up!! It's nice to see your comment here, you always make me LAUGH OUT LOUD!

Janie - i think there is a place online that these coasters can be created, check out all the one's on youtube.com. There are tons! I think my kids said there was a free site out there somewhere.

Dan - I think it would be more exciting if you could ride the real one....imagine a 3.41 minute roller coaster ride? That would be a blast!!

Marlene - me too!!

Brad - I see you discovered a little bit about VIDEO...(hee he)

Now Have a Blessed Day,

John Occhi, Hemet CA REALTOR
Mission Grove Realty

John - I did! Hope you'll join the group and maybe upload some "Virtual Tours" on any listings that you may have. Thanks my friend.

BTW - saw all 77 of your RE videos on google (couldn't look at them all) but I see what you mean. Great Stuff! I will say that 78, 79, 80 was Uma Thurman, Penelope Cruz, and Cindy Crawford...just a little distracting.. :-) I ran John Occhi as the search and that's what came up.

You obviously put alot of work into creating that many videos, I particularly liked your most recent to Brian Rogers and the inner-circle achnowledgement video. Kudos to you John!!

So Brad, are you talking about Real Estate Shows? I watched to video, and it reminded me of the last roller coaster - 20 years+ ago - that I rode. I have several RES, but want to make sure that's what you have in mind.

Brad,

How cool was that? I actually started getting motion sickness and I was terrified we were going to drop off the edge at the end. Thanks for sharing the cool technology.

Fran

Hi Teri, great to hear from you...so it took a roller coaster to get you back here huh? LOL!! As long as it in multi-media, youtube, RES, (Jeff would kill me if we didn't allow those) or any other means of "Video", that would be great. Many of the "Next Generation" tecky future buyers and sellers of tomorrow already expect this stuff, after all, look at this roller coaster creation. This level of marketing is a minimum in the eyes of the next generation of clients. ANYTHING VIDEO ROLLS, that's how they roll, at least that's what my 20 year old claims on his txt messages to me. :-) I've missed our chats lately, hope all is well with you. Don't ever switch to blue, you'll always stay ahead in RED!! (BIGGEST SMILE EVER)!! B-)

Fran - that's the only reason I watched the whole darn thing was I had to know what happened at the end! I was actually a little disappointed, I had such higher expectations!! That's too funny, thanks for the comment!

What a hoot. We've only been on the ride for about 6 years, all up, then on the heels of Kartina, it's a slow ride down. A fun post this is,

thanks...

That was fun...where ever did you find it? Any idea who put it together?

Yep - I remember why I don't like roller coasters anymore - got me dizzy too.

Good job Brad! I enjoyed the ride! Glad it was not something that went round and around lol

Gary - thanks for the comment, glad you enjoyed the video, hope you enjoy the rest of the ride. Regards!!

Joan - There's a credit at the intro, found it under google video when I searched Real Estate. Nice to hear from you Joan, hope all is well. B-)

Jeff - is that in any relation to our business? LOL! I just love this business, the unknown, the un-expected, the un-sure, it's why we do what we do! Love it!! Thanks Jeff. :-)

Darlene - oh, but it does!! LOL! :-) Glad you enjoyed it...I even liked the educational part. Did you see the graph at the very end? WOW! Just like the ride!! Thanks!!

Brad, I have been around, writing a few posts and responding, and I thought I might be seeing you but haven't yet. Looks like you've been busy responding, responding, responding to your posts. Anyway, when I get a moment, I'll post my shows over to your new group.

Everyone gets at least one of these ladies! Sorry!

Yes, I would agree with you on the never-know-whats-going-to-happen-today aspect of the business.

Teri - you are so right...guilty as charged. I have been so busy working, writing and responding, I have been negligent in commenting on my favorite associates posts!! :-( You are the second person in the past week to bring this to my attention, so thank you, I will try to get around the rain and "payback" all those who have been so generous with their comments to me. Thanks for keeping me accountable!! That's what AR is all about. :-)

Jeff - that's what makes this industry and business so exciting!! Thanks! :-)

My man Brad, love this post, I am definately going to get adept at youtube. I got a new phone with better video capabilities and will be looking out for the racoon's on the patio/office! Also posted a virtual tour on your other blog, thanks. Regards, DavidC

My little spot on Earth! Firestone Park, Akron, Ohio

David - you're the best, I have been commenting all day, over 50 posts, took me 5 hours to read and comment! Learned a ton today, but no racoons!! LOL. Haven't even been over to the group yet, I'll go check it out!! Thanks my friend!! B-)
