I no longer have any savings because I gave it to a sick girl named Penny Brown, who is about to die in the hospital for the 1,387,258th time.

For many agents they are much easier than cold calling, knocking on doors, working expireds and FSBOs. Plus they are more cost effective as compared to many forms of marketing.
You can create a situation where people are literally walking in the door who want to buy and sell Real Estate. Good Open Houses can generate over 100 prospects … (2 comments)
