sell: A NEW PARADIGM FOR BUYERS AGENTS. TAKING CONTROL OF YOUR BUSINESS
- 10/26/08 05:06 PM
I just read the post below, by Lenn Harley. I liked it so much that I decided to re-blog it. It just has so much sage advice for real estate agents, and provides real estate buyers with a look at the other side of the coin. It's posts like this that I believe, help to bring about a "meeting of the minds". It's all too often that problems occur, strictly because of miscommunications. Plus, this is just a good read =) Now in the Daytona Beach area, not all of this advice will apply. I say this because our market … (6 comments)

sell: Daytona Beach Florida: So Many Changes... and the Loss of our Beloved Boardwalk
- 10/17/08 04:32 PM
I'm a Daytona Beach native. I know. I'm one of the few. It seems like everyone here has moved here from somewhere else. And I certainly won't complain about that! Whoever wants to move to the Daytona Beach area, feel free to come on down! Just be sure to call me when you're ready to buy real estate here =) But back to the topic of being a native of the area. When you're born and raised in the same place, you sometimes don't notice the gradual changes. And then there are times when you drive down a street where … (18 comments)
sell: Florida's Home Foreclosures
- 10/15/08 07:07 PM
I was just commenting on a real estate blog post here on Active Rain, with the TV turned down pretty low. I tend to blog this way quite freqently. I don't really like to just sit and watch TV. Actually, I think I'm incapable of doing just one thing at a time. Anyway, I wasn't really paying attention to the TV until I heard a commercial that had just one statement that got my attention. It was about the real estate foreclosure market in Florida. With the presidential election coming up in just a few weeks, there have been a lot … (11 comments)

sell: New Real Estate Listing with Boat Dock, Electric Lift and More! BUT...
- 10/04/08 01:06 PM
Spectacular waterfront home for sale... and no Postlet yet =( Has anyone tried to create a Postlet for a real estate listing in the last couple of days? I'm so frustrated. I have a beautiful new real estate listing on the St. John's River, (yes, these are actual photos of the listing!) that I'd really like to advertise. But I don't like to blog about my real estate listings until I have Postlets for them. For one thing, Postlets makes the blog presentation look much more professional, and in addition, when you create a Postlet for a listing, it sends … (6 comments)
sell: How to Handle Lying, Unethical REALTORS®
- 09/27/08 02:56 PM
I recently wrote a blog post about... A house I just sold that was in horrible disrepair The worst listing agent I've ever encountered. These were both part of the same post and transaction. This story is real, but extremely unusual. I'm writing it for educational purposes, for both real estate professionals and for consumer knowledge. (This paragraph has been added, since apparently some commenters thought I wasn't clear enough in my first draft.) My reason for leaving this post open for the public to read is NOT to draw attention to bad agents, but to show that it is very … (56 comments)
sell: Real Estate Takes A Moment of Mourning
- 09/22/08 06:02 PM
I recently posted a blog about a house I sold last week, that was in the worst condition I had ever seen. I also mentioned in that post that the listing agent for that house pretty much acted like he didn't want to sell the house. It was the worst transaction I've ever had. Well, a little while ago I was just reading a couple of recent real estate blog posts by Broker Bryant titled "Does that 50 Cents Have to Be on the HUD?" and "Increase Property Showings by Treatng Your Peers with Respect". In writing this post, I was … (16 comments)
sell: Reasons to Buy Real Estate in Ormond Beach FL
- 09/12/08 06:16 PM
If you're looking for a place to move, or invest in real estate in Central Florida, or if you've been specifically considering the Daytona Beach area, you might want to consider buying real estate in the city of Ormond Beach. Ormond Beach is a beautiful community, just north of Daytona Beach. I've written several blog posts about Ormond Beach, which cover everything from real estate market statistics with graphs and charts, to posts with fun things to do in the area. In this post I'm going to provide links to my previous Ormond Beach posts, so if you're a real estate … (6 comments)
sell: The Greatest Real Estate Seller I've Ever Met
- 09/06/08 03:55 PM
A few days ago, I wrote a post called "How Would You Sell This House?". If you haven't already, please read that post before this one. In that post, I outlined the problems that a Port Orange real estate seller was experiencing in selling his house. He was interviewing real estate agents when I met with him. But his house is already listed with another agent at this time. If you're a real estate agent, you know that we frequently get calls from real estate sellers who currently have their houses listed with another agent, whom they are considering replacing … (20 comments)
sell: How Would You Sell This House?
- 09/03/08 04:57 PM
Isn't it amazing that as a REALTOR®, no matter how long you've been in the business, you're constantly encountering new situations in real estate? But there's a good chance that another real estate agent has already experienced a situation that you have not, and vice versa. So this blog post is to ask for advice from other real estate agents who may have already experienced what I did today. Or even if you have not experienced this exact situation, you might have some fabulous ideas and advice. So here's my story and some questions... Yesterday I got a phone call … (26 comments)

sell: Can You Find Things to Do, When You Know Nothing About Your Current Location?
- 08/24/08 09:16 PM
Have you ever thought about how you would find inexpensive things to do in a particular city or area? I'm not talking about your home town, or even a vacation destination. I'm talking about moving to a new location and knowing very little about the area. Most of you will probably have your mental wheels turning. First of all, set aside the thought of how that could possibly happen. We'll get to that later. Once you get past that, you're probably thinking you can just go find a visitor's guide, or do an online search, or even ask some local … (6 comments)

- 08/22/08 05:12 PM
If you're vacationing in the Daytona Beach area, there's a good possibility that you're considering buying real estate here. I know this because I've received many calls lately from real estate buyers who will be here within the next few weeks and months, to purchase their winter homes. Before I proceed with this post, I'd like to welcome our new crowd of snowbirds who join us every winter. And a big welcome to my 2 year buyers who have finally sold their 228 year house in CT! We have some great houses lined up for viewing tomorrow. I wanted to … (2 comments)
sell: Daytona Beach Now Has a State College!
- 08/19/08 08:12 PM
A while back I wrote a post to this blog, listing all of the colleges and universities in the Daytona Beach area. I was born and raised in the Daytona Beach area, and can remember when all we had was Daytona Beach Community College, and of course Stetson University in DeLand. Not long ago, Daytona Beach Community College (DBCC) dropped the word "community" from their name, as they had expanded so much over the years. But the most recent addition was the "The School of Hospitality and Culinary Management", donated by local real estate builder Mori Hosseini, aptly titled the Mori … (3 comments)

And one of the best features of the Chinese Kite Exhibits will be the … (1 comments)

Great news for Daytona Beach residents who need a way to escape the heat. A new public aquatic center has been built on the corner of Nova Road and George W. Engram Blvd. This new "regulation size" pool is the Cypress Aquatic Center, with a 101 swimmer capacity. But this is more than just a pool. This affordable way to spend a day ($3.00 for adults, $2.00 if under 17, children under age 7 must be accompanied by a responsible person over the age of 16.) has locker rooms with showers, family changing rooms, and a covered picnic area which … (6 comments)
sell: Port Orange Real Estate Buyers and Sellers: Good News!
- 07/28/08 10:22 PM
Port Orange real estate buyers and sellers, I have some good news for you. I've been tracking the Daytona Beach Area MLS records regularly, so I've known for a while that Port Orange was faring better than Daytona Beach, Ormond Beach, or any of the other local cities. Last week I sold a Port Orange house that's been on the market for a long time. It's a great house on 1 acre, in a fantastic location near Spruce Creek High School. And the sellers were (and still are) great people. But the sale took so long because the price was … (6 comments)
