honolulu: Massage my back and I'll massage yours??? - 10/23/06 04:00 PM
Every time someone comments on one of my blogs, I feel obligated to visit their site and return the favor by commenting on their blog.  I find it funny how I feel guilty when I don't return the kind gesture. 
Anyone else feel the same way? 
Is this just good ActiveRain manners?
Is it just me?

honolulu: Making the best of Open Houses - 10/23/06 03:44 PM
Not sure about the rest of you but I'm still in the building stage of my career.  With the transitional market heading for the worse, it's back to basics for sure.  Open houses were a very large part of where I got my business from in the first few years of Real Estate. 
The following are some of the things I do in both preparing for the open house and post open houses.  Some of what I do is very basic and others a little unique.
Preparing for my open house:
Make and order my open house fliers.  I do a double sided full … (9 comments)

honolulu: "My Happy Home" 2007 Contest "UPDATE" - 10/22/06 08:14 AM
"My Happy Home" 2007 Contest "UPDATE"I posted about a month ago on how great of an idea this was for us on both the Foundation and Real Estate side to do these Calendars for the kids.
There were 3,000 plus students who entered our calendar contest! All entries were fabulous but we had to narrow it down to 36 semi-finalists.  The Semi-finalists' drawings were displayed at the Pearlridge Shopping Center, near Tilt & ASB. Public voting occured where we received thousands of votes for thier favorite drawings.  Winners will be on display at the Kahala Mall from November 5-12.  The "My Happy Home" calendars … (7 comments)

honolulu: Make a Difference Day, What Difference is your Firm Making??? - 10/22/06 07:57 AM
Make a Difference Day is right around the corner on October 28th.  Every year our Foundation will coordinate the function for the year.  In the past we have had Halloween Parties with games, prizes, story telling, and more all for Palama Settlement which is one of the less fortunate areas on Oahu.  We've also built a walkway for a school that really needed one, pulled weeds and painted at various places including the Honolulu Zoo and Sea Life Park.  This year we will be doing some labor again by helping renovating the Easter Seals Facility in Kaimuki.

honolulu: How did Realtors get by without DVR or TIVO??? - 10/21/06 08:11 AM
I know I'll get a few responses with agents saying that they don’t watch much tv and would rather ready a book.  This post isn't for you!  : )
I'm a huge TV fan and got a DVR "Digital Video Recorder" a couple years back.  With tons of great TV shows on weekly and having a realtor schedule (24/7), before I got one I would miss shows like 24, Greys Anatomy, CSI, Extrme Home Makeover, etc. and kinda be lost for the rest of the season.  Now without the worry of ever missing an episode, all the shows I like are programmed … (2 comments)
