I was pleasantly surprised and incredibly honored when, in response to an email I sent him, Allen Hainge wrote a blog post about me on his CyberStars® Blog on Friday! Back in June, I took the CRS 206 Technology class at the Atlanta Board of REALTORS®. I had heard great things about Allen from some friends of mine who are members of his CyberStars® group and was so excited to take the course. Allen really knows his stuff! After implementing one particular tool Allen told us about in class - Issuu.com, a FREE website that allows you to create e-zines - I emailed Allen to thank him and show him the team brochure I created. Next thing I know, I'm on Allen's blog! Allen was generous enough to take my email and create a blog post about it - thereby giving me mention on his site (something I n...

When I find interesting readings/ideas/websites, I like to share them with those I know. It's pretty easy on Facebook. If it shows up on my wall, and your my friend, bingo. Or, if I read an article and it has a "share" button, I think (I use that word lightly) it allows me to do just that...share. Other times, I get all freaky, afraid some Internet Police is going to pop out of my laptop and tell me I'm doing something illegal. So, I try to avoid that, by just sharing the link. So, tonight, I share with you. It's a tough world out there right now. I've got close friends losing jobs. Family members dealing with health issues. And the economy, real estate, etc. But when you can find something that makes you stop and think, and in doing so, maybe CHANGE your thinking, then it's a "Must Sha...

Pamela Holmes is the premier short sale specialist for Atlanta Georgia. Even with all of the hype over loan modifications in the first 8 months of 2008 58% of the people who modified their loans had re-defaulted on their loan modifications. This means borrowers who modify their home loans had less then a 50/50 chance of successfully avoiding foreclosure. The housing crisishas profoundly effected the Atlanta, GA area. The best thing for these 58% to do would be contact a local short sale specialist. A short sale specialist helps home owners avoid foreclosureby getting the lender to agree to sell the home at a pre-agreed upon price. When the home sales at this price the lender agrees not to pursue the borrower for the deficiency amount (deficiency judgement).In the state of Georgia when a...

Most Atlanta real estate agents will never tell their Atlanta home sellers what they talk about back at the Atlanta real estate office.  The truth is that most home sellers do not matter to their agents.  It would be nice if the home sold, but they really do not care.  It's a numbers game!  If you throw enough mud at the walls, sooner or later something will stick!  The sad thing is the home-seller is really just a number to the listing agent.  The agents that do this routinely list a lot of homes, and only a percentage will sell.  That is OK, because the agent is really a buyers agent!  They are looking to genearate buyer leads from the overpriced homes that aren't going to sell anyway.  The saying in real estate used to be "List to sell!" In good times, listings will generate more bus...

If you listen to the evening news, I'm sure you've heard about possible property tax increases in several Georgia counties as well as the City of Atlanta. I was visiting the Dekalb County Tax Commissioner's website today and the following information was posted... Dekalb County Tax Commissioner Claudia G. Lawson says "homeowners should brace themselves for additional property taxes this year and the next. The State Homestead Tax Relief Grant that funded an increased homestead exemption for homeowners for the last several years will not be available this year." "Declining state revenues during the current recession means there is no money for the State to give the tax relief to homeowners" said Lawson. "This will mean a property tax increase up to $300 on the 2009 tax bills for many home...
