Posts Just For You- This Week at ActiveRain-July 25 to July 31, 2021

  

Every day there is something new to learn here at ActiveRain.  With this series, I try to highlight posts that gave me that lightbulb moment. It could be something techie, something about Real Estate or the other professions that I never knew, about a place, or about a person. Or, it could be a post that made me sit up and take notice!

 

 

July 26: Gary Thomas    Be Careful

With so many short term rentals being popular now, I thought this was a very interesting story from Gary. 

 

KatKat Palmiotti Land Sale Challenges: Access

If you're considering showing or looking at land, Kat's post is a must-read.

Margaret RomeMargaret Rome Calls and Texts and Emails-Oh my!
Margaret's post reminded me of the importance of knowing what method of communication your clients are more comfortable using.

MarteJuly 29: Marte Cliff Two Ways Your Agent Bio Helps You Attract Prospects
Marte is absolutely right. Consumers want to know about the person behind the image.

DeniseJuly 30: Denise Lones Education is the Key to Great Client Care
Your education never stops or at least it shouldn't if you want to remain a key player in what you do.
