Austin Active Rain Meet-up! Thursday August 30th, 2012

Active Rain LogoWell...it's time again for a meet-up of Central Texas, Active Rain bloggers! This will be an open gathering and anyone is welcome, whether you are an AR member or not! It's a great way to meet folks who are blogging at Active Rain in person and see what we are like in person! If past meetings are any indication, this is also excellent opportunity  to network, exchange ideas and learn more about agents and Brokers who are active in Austin area.

Even if you are NOT a member but are curious about blogging or anything social media related, you should attend. It's been my experience that most of the people you will meet are happy to share their knowledge and experience and frankly, if you are not socially engaged online, you have a LOT of catching up to do! It's an easy relaxed group and the dialog is always interesting and informative!

Please consider joining us at the new Central Location for one of Austin's coolest new Burger Bars, Hopdoddy Burger Bar , located at 2438 West Anderson Lane , it's an excellent spot for everyone traveling from either North OR South Austin! And...if you are not familiar with Hopdoddy's uber wild burgers you need to check this place out! The location on South Congress in  Austin's Soco District  has pretty much always had a line out the door since opening. We will be there from 11:30am until 1:00pm so you can come and go as you please. Drop by, meet some new people, say hello to old friends and enjoy a gourmet burger while learning more about interesting local real estate Bloggers AND Blogging!

 

Active Rain Meet-up...Up Date!

Though only four were able to make it to our meet up, but what a great group. It was an excellent time and we stayed for an hour and a half talking about just about anything you can imagine. It was good to visit  and one of the best things you will learn about Austin Real Estate Bloggers is that we are extremely diverse and frankly, it's always interesting and fun to get together. If you want an idea of the conversation, check out our blogs:

I actually received 14 RSVP emails from folks not able to make it due to end of month closings and even... Rain Camp which is certainly understandable. With all of the interest, we are going to meet again in the near future but in the middle of a month when more folks can attend. Look for a post and I hope to see y'all there next time!

Have lots of fun at Austin ActiveRain Meet up. I have met many rainers in person, love every single in person meeting. Putting a live personality behind those profile photos are priceless.

Hi Russell, I wish I could join you guys on Thursday, but I have closings, and I also want to catch the live webinar too. It was great meeting you, Scott, and Donna last year in Austin. That was my very first Meet Up, and I will always be grateful for meeting you guys in person finally.

We are having one in San Antonio on Wednesday, August 29th at Drew's American Grill on 18740 Stone Oak Pkwy 78258 from 4:30 to 6:30 PM. You are welcome to make the drive down if you can make it.

Hey Russell!  I'll try and make it for the MeetUp but have a closing at 10 am.....sounds like a great place to meet - haven't made it to Hopdaddy Burger Bar yet but that's my "stomping grounds" so will have to put it on the TO DO LIST.  Great Realtors know all the cool places to dine!!

Dear Russell,

Thanks for putting this together. Hopdaddy's was great and it was fun to catch up. I enjoyed meeting Scott & Dorie in person. I will be looking for the next jar of yummy home-made salsa from you.

Cheers,

Betina

Jason:  A "coouter offer" occurs when there is an offer on a house that has "cooties..." and then someone comes in with a better, or "coouter" offer.
