Eric, I agree, the hard part is finding time to stay on top of all of the new technology and still make a living!  It seems that things change or something new and revolutionary comes out every other week.  I do like it better now than the way things used to be done. 

I'd be curious to hear what you use the portable DVD player and web cam for?  Everything else on your list, with the exception of Talking House, I've got covered.

Don't forget transaction management software and auto MLS populaters

You are exactly right.  We have to stay a step ahead in all our marketing, technologies, and lead capturing devices.

I need to pull a wagon for all the tech items I should haul with me.

Hi Eric;

I agree with you.. it is an different kind of market, we need to learn and make adjustments to be successful.

Eric. All is so true. Read, read, read. That is the only way to be ahead of the competition and your clients. Thanks, Royal..

Sorry, I don't agree. Talking House is nothing to write home to Mom about as far a technological advances go. Now if you want to talk about not being like grandfather real estate. How about going completely paperless, having a tablet computer. I do not find your list to be that impressive, these technological advances like 800#'s have been around a long time.

Good luck with the FSBO approach.

Hey Eric,

For the most part I agree with you - don't care for the talking house.  I agree with Royal - read - read - read - that's why I'm reading your blog.  And I am doing the best I can on going paperless - I'm doing Zipforms Docusign and it is awesome!  I wrote a blog -  http://activerain.com/blogsview/454238/Are-you-Paperless last week.  Thanks for the info - great blog.

Eric:  I agree with technology but also do not necessarily like the talking house.  I tried that one years ago.  However, that does not mean that it will not work well for you.

I agree, agents have to get on the technology train or get left behind.

Good Post!
