Grateful Thankful for the Active Rain Community

By
Real Estate Agent with HomeStarr Realty RS143922A

Time to write my Thankful post and this week what comes to my mind is that I am really and truly Grateful for Active Rain, especially the wonderful friends I have made over the years. I am not going to name them for fear I will leave even one of them off the list.

They have cheered me on when I have achieved listing and sales.  They have read and encouraged my writing the so important market reporting. The market reports have helped me achieve the status of the neighborhood expert. Many members also encouraged me to send out just sold and listed cards and shared their own success in doing so. Knowing that this helped them to succeed in their market gave me that extra push to also do it in mine 

 

 There are members of Active Rain that will show you how to do video marketing They even create storyboards to show you exactly how to do it. They are so kind that if you do not understand will give you a personal lesson. How awesome is that? 

 

There is so much help available at your fingertips. Members will show you how to insert pictures in a post and insert videos. Active Rain bloggers want others to succeed. Q&A is the place to go when you have a question and it should be answered. 

 

There is a personal side here also. You could travel the country and meet almost someone in each state and be welcomed like family. People love your children and grandchildren they even know their names. We love each other pets. Give sympathy during sickness and unfortunately death

If you are new to Active Rain you were most likely welcomed with open arms. You can learn so much here.  This is a Real Estate Blog Community but it is so much more you might even learn to cook some fabulous dishes. I could go on and on 

I am so grateful to be a member and Ambassador of Active Rain Community

Hi Hannah,

What a lovely blog.  At the beginning of any journey, such as AR, we have no idea where it will lead us.  But I am guessing most of us did not think to realize that this was the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.  It is quite a blessing indeed!

Sheri Sperry - MCNE® You hit the nail on the head. Who knew when we found this site called AR that it would mean so much to any of us 😊

Hi Hannah- I couldn't agree more. This is so much more than a real estate blogging platform. Yes we learn about marketing, writing market reports and anything related to the industry but much more than that...we are a wonderful community.  I thank you for your friendship!!!

Hey sista,
I suspect all the members who are active here share your sentiments. I know I do! I appreciate you and so many more. 

I am constantly amazed at the quality of people and their generosity in sharing time and knowledge so freely.  It's truly one of those "ask and ye shall receive" experiences.
