I just met a photographer at my new listing to take photos. Why don't I just take those photos myself? Because I don't have a $7000 camera like he does. I don't have the same "eye" he has. I don't have the professional photo editing software he has. I don't have the skill he has. I know I "could"...

I have an oceanfront condo listing that I'm listing with another agent in my office. It's priced at $1.4M, has gorgeous ocean views from almost every room (with the exception of the baths & the closet) and is a full floor unit, so you own the entire floor. It's elevator access only by a key or a ...

I know my year is off and running, and we all have multiple things to juggle. The multiple things can be a hindrance to some of us at times with the sheer multitude of details we are responsible for, personally & professionally. I've found it most effective, for me, to have a to do list (yes, I d...

Many real estate offices have individual work space (cubes or offices) for agents, with a "bull pen" area in the office that has workspace and computers on a first come/first served availability. I have worked in the bullpen area, usually using both the iPad and a desktop (some things in our MLS ...

I have had HBO for a few years, mainly because they have one show or another I like to watch. The most recent was True Blood. Yesterday, I managed to get my Smart TV to download Netflix, and started with Orange is The New Black - which is hysterical and very smartly written. With the abillity to ...

I'm working with another agent in my office as an accountability partner. To that end, we both purchased the Daily Real Estate Planner, and she mentioned a Tom Ferry app. The app, for iPhone & iPad only (not yet for Android, sorry), has you set your income goal, how many days a week you want to w...

Most Realtors I know use their car not just for transportation: it's their mobile office, in addition. I know my car trunk has signs, lockboxes, old files, and a stack of business cards, among other things. Following my theme of cleaning up to prepare yourself for the new year, go ahead and clean...

I, probably like many of you, had a pretty cluttered workspace. So cluttered with stuff, I wasn't sitting there. It felt too crowded for me and my current stuff.
