"It's better to represent the seller"...Another corner heard from...at least Elizabeth is being honest here. Most listing agents would rather have the listing on a short sale. That way if two, three or four or more buyers walk, they'll still have the listing! As an agent who NEVER deals with sell...

BLOGGING AT 1AM. WHY, EXACTLY? One. I love Active Rain and just can’t leave my keyboard. Two. I’ve had too much caffeine and I’m wide awake. Three. I simply need help! Your choice. Personally I think it’s all three reasons. If I can provide more information about Tucson AZ real estate and surrou...

"Pay It Forward" Notice Ralph did what I have done in the past (not often enough) but Ralph wrote that very cool note on the back of his card, extending the gesture to someone else. Very smart idea. I always did my gesture anonymously. Probably better Ralph's way. Went out to dinner last night, ...

When Margaret first posted this, I wrote a comment. This blog of hers got a lot of cute comments, and this was kind of like filling in the caption on a cartoon in the local newspaper. Now that reblogging is back up, I get to put it out there again, and I hope more AR members will get a kick out o...

Margaret raises several good points. first, be careful of making snap judgments. We will get more people now paying cash for one thing, think investors. And, just because Americans are way up to their eyeballs in credit debt, a lot of good folks from outside the US pay cash way more than we do. A...

Loreena Yeo writes a well thought out blog post here. The numbers really DON’T Lie. A listing agent, and there are all sorts, really would be well advised to take what Loreena Yeo says here. I would cringe if I ever heard “Let's just put the house on the market and see what happens.” Of cours...

SEO results, great but are they "sticking" on the site. Inna Hardison of the HaMedia Group has a SENSATIONAL BLOG POST on this subject. How it doesn’t have a Gold Star is beyond me. I appreciate the extensive tips contained herein. Lords knows I can’t figure out any of this on my own. And a word...
