century 21 assurance realty ltd: Blogging...Words and Pictures? or Pictures and Words? - 02/17/09 10:01 PM
WORDS >>> You can use too few and you can use far too many!  The irony here is that depending on how well a blog post is written the length of the post typically has no bearing on how many in the ActiveRain membership read it!  Quality over quantity is a mantra every "ActiveRain Drip" should take seriously!!!
Some examples of what I would consider quality posts but read more like short stories are:

century 21 assurance realty ltd: The "Pick Play" that Buyers will love you for and Sellers will never see coming! - 01/26/09 05:13 PM

To be completely honest I am very protective of my buyers.  I am not talking about being their personal bodyguard rather I am referring to a much different type of protection.  The kind of protection that they may need from... an overbearing Seller!!!
Let me share an example of how I needed to protect some of my buyers in recently.  I called to set up an appointment to show a home and the seller's agent gave me the green light to show it.  I bring my buyers to the home at the agreed time and unlock the front door, knock on the door and then...IT HAPPENS!!!  As I no … (32 comments)

Kelowna residents are amongst the thirstiest in the entire world!

Water consumption is a hot topic and recently it has jumped into the headlines here in Kelowna,BC.  Although some progress on reducing water consumption locally has been made, those efforts are not nearly enough!  The following article by Castanet.net is as alarming as it is sobering.  It got me to thinking as to how I use water on a daily basis and where I could cut back etc.


Here are some suggestions on how to reduce your daily consumption:

century 21 assurance realty ltd: The Sphere of Influence that few Realtors® prospect today! - 01/25/09 04:45 PM

How do you define SOI?  Is it comprised of friends, family, past clientele etc.?  If not, it might be a good idea to update your database!  There is another SOI often ignored and completely overlooked by agents today.  The irony being, these people are right in front of their noses and they can be a very lucrative bunch to do business with.  They are the agents in your office!!! 
Think about it for a moment!  They are in the same business as you and they understand the very important concept of referrals (as in the kind that makes you both … (32 comments)

Although I have been a member of the Activerain community for a relatively short period of time I felt inclined to say...THANK-YOU!!!

century 21 assurance realty ltd: Step up to the plate and show us what you can do! - 01/17/09 04:43 AM

I  was tweeting along...and came across this post by tamaradorris that I had not watched in a while.  After watching this incredibly awe inspiring performance it got me to thinking about how we evaluate a person without really knowing much about them at all.
On the surface it would seem like Paul Potts was going to be a complete dud as a performer, that is until he opened his mouth and began to sing.  You can see that in an instant he had won over every person in that auditorium and moved many of them to tears.  Mr. Potts didn't exude confidence but what … (4 comments)

century 21 assurance realty ltd: Foreclosures are a rarity in the Kelowna Real Estate Market!!! - 01/16/09 03:27 AM

Foreclosures are few and far between in the Central Okanagan today.  The Kelowna Real Estate Market has returned to more of a balanced one with homes taking longer to sell and buyers have more selection.  There are also a number of "Subject to Sale" deals where one home owner is waiting for another home owner to sell their property before completing on their agreement.  This certainly has a bit of a domino effect and requires the patience of all parties involved.  I have put together the current listing inventory for the Central Okanagan Region.
Current listing inventory is as follows:
