Get ready for the Wave...

By
Real Estate Agent with Royal Shell Real Estate Inc BK3025297

In 2008, from June through October, each month I attended a different Default Conference across the country. As early as last June the bankers at those conferences were saying that the Reo wave would crest the end of 2009 and finally a couple of weeks ago on 20/20 there was a show saying the same thing.

For those of us in the REO trenches we had a lull during the holidays but we are back at work now and busier than ever. The good news is that buyers are coming to Florida. Good news is that the FHA Streamline program is custom made for REO homes that need rehab and Wells Fargo and Countrywide has these programs and are thrilled to help your clients with preapprovals on REO properties.

In Volusia and Flagler Counties I'm seeing a lot of multiple contract situations as houses are dropping into the $50k-$60k price range which means for investors that these homes will cash flow once again so I'm expecting a great snow bird season.

If you are looking to connect with a team of REO Experts, you have come to the right place. If you are in real estate and you aren't making any sales, you need to call me as I have more buyers than we can handle. We are cranking up some seminars that will insure a constant lead flow system that will keep my agents showing and selling. Call me: 386-299-6393. Only positive and agents who want to work need apply.

Wishing you sunshine,

Hey Janet, and Welcome to the Rain!

I joined the Active Rain community not too long ago myself and wanted to drop a line to share some of the good vibes and welcome wishes I have received already.

A Bit About Active Rain

I'm very excited about this community - basically because folks seem so willing to help out, provide industry insight, and share their good news and experiences!

When I started out on Active Rain, I felt a little overwhelmed.  I hope the following points and suggested sites will help bring you into the mix!  Just my way of saying that I'm glad you're here.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One:  Be sure to include a good amount of information on your profile page.  Check out the profiles on other Realtor's sites here on Active Rain who are listed as "Featured" or "Tops" in their area (look for high point totals).  You'll find that this will seriously boost your presence on ActiveRain - via the added points. 

Two: I urge you to keep blogging on this site!  You will be AMAZED at the awesome feedback you receive very soon after they hit the network!  I use Google Reader to subscribe to blogs that provide me with ideas about what I'd like to comment on - both industry wise and just for fun!  Check it out I am more than willing to step you through the site and to help you get a few more blog posts generated if you wish - as a way of adding some value and paying forward some good networking vibes!  :)

Three: Be sure to add in a good number of posts about what you think and consider pertinent regarding your area of expertise!  You'll notice that many if not all of the Featured posting bloggers here on AR do this.

Lastly, I do quite a lot of work via social networks, email campaigns, and relationship building.  If I can ever be of any assistance, don't hesitate to ask.

Here are a few great sites to visit (some of my favorites).  If you like the information they provide, be sure to let them know I sent you!

Looking forward to what you'll share with us here on Active Rain!  :)

Blessings,
