Hi All, I just wanted to let you all know, that I was born and rasied in Brooklyn NY. I lived there till I was almost 30.

mississippi gulf coast: Is being a REALTOR falling behind the information curve?
- 02/24/11 11:38 AM
HI Everyone, Well, I just wanted to share some of my worries and concerns with all of you on ActiveRain. I believe that the pace and evolution of information availability and technology is leaving the NAR and MLS systems behind in the dust. Let me state that I have been a REALTOR for 12+ years. That I have believed it better to be a REALTOR than just a licensed agent. But... now I am begininng to wonder, if NAR and the MLS systems are looking out for their own interests and not the interests of their constituents (the REALTORS). I think … (1 comments)

The National Association of REALTORS research has disclosed today that consumer confidence for the last week is up. If it this trend continues throughout the month, this will be the second month in a row that consumer confidence has risen. That's Great News! That is the engine that drives our economy. What people think and believe, generally foretells, whether they will be buying or not. IF they feel confident, then they buy more, raising up the general economy, which in turn generates, more production, more jobs, and a better economy.

mississippi gulf coast: Bank of America's Equator System
- 06/09/10 05:19 AM
Has anyone done a short sale on the equator system? Have you had a buyer walk away and hit the reject button? Do you know what happens if they come back???? You start all over. Once you hit that reject button on Bank of America's equator system, you cannot submit any other offers on that property, re submit or anything until they reset the system. We rejected an offer for a buyer around May 21. Today, June 9, I still cannot put another offer in on that property. I have tried, I have talked with Equator and Bank of America. We … (3 comments)
mississippi gulf coast: The Mississippi Gulf Coast
- 05/21/10 05:08 AM
I just wanted to talk a little about the Missisippi Gulf Coast. It is in my opinion a GREAT location to live. First, we have white sand beaches along the Gulf of Mexico, mostly unblocked by buildings so you can drive along highway 90 in Harrison county and see the gulf for just about the whole ride. (So far the oil from the Gulf Spill hasn't hit the Mississippi Gulf Coast- and it's looking like it may head south instead) Second, The People are great. Friendly and hospitable they make people from out of the area feel welcome- I should know … (1 comments)
