real estate: Dumb as a Rock or What! - 02/19/08 01:21 AM
So what do you do when your buyer is as dumb as a rock? OK, not everyone is a rocket scientist and these folks are first time buyers. But come on where does personal responsibility start.
The total story goes something like this.  You explain in detail trying to make the words no longer than 5 or 6 letters with only 2 syllables.  You provide them with a CD with characters speaking in English demonstrating through acting the entire process of home buying.  Why you even give them not just a flow sheet explaining what act follows the next in the buying … (1 comments)

Hey... some days I have trouble seeing beyond my nose.  But seriously I believe that information is … (1 comments)

real estate: BPO's and interesting experience... what about you? - 09/14/07 02:03 AM
Over the past year I have become increasingly involved in doing BPO's and although at times they can be a real pain to do for not much money.  I have developed a fairly good relationship with three companies.  I have been able to negotiate an acceptable fee structure and during these recent slack times I've kept myself occupied with two to three a week.  Although most are validation reports I have been able to pick up around 30% of them as fresh listings which fortunately I have been able to dispose of in relatively short order. 
As those of you who do … (6 comments)

real estate: GEORGIA FLORIDA WEEKEND IN THE GOLDEN ISLES - 10/27/06 02:11 AM
For those of you who are not in the SEC (South Eastern Conference) the Georgia – Florida game probably holds little significance.  However, being here on St. Simons Island, 70 miles from the annual “World’s Largest Cocktail Party” is a true adventure.  An adventure which begins roughly three days before the game, because that is roughly the time frame in which the partying masses converge on the area to partake in booze, food, golf, swapping war stories and extolling the praises for the combatant schools. 
 Somewhere in this hodgepodge real estate comes into play.  Usually it is the couple who has been coming here for … (0 comments)
