brevard: Should I Decorate for the Holidays?
- 11/26/11 03:00 AM
Should I decorate? One of the most asked questions when I meet with a potential home seller during holiday season. I'm not one to tell someone they should not decorate and get festive for the Holiday Season, however the key to staging the home must include being uncluttered. While I don't do holiday staging, I will give examples of keeping the decorating to a minimum during selling. Sellers must remember, everyone has a different taste for their own decor, so neutral is best. We certainly do not want over decorating to turn off potential buyers! Making sure the decorating doesn't take (4 comments)

brevard: Rainmaking on the Go?
- 09/29/11 10:04 AM
Just wondering if anyone else has noticed how inconvenient it is to blog using I-Phone or I-Pad? I cannot get the blog article to upload any pictures. The only way I can get any text entered is to use the html version which is not really the way to blog unless you are trying to embed a web file. Any suggestions out there for a real app that can enable us to be better rainmakers?
I appreciate the feedback!

Getting an offer from a buyer pre-approved with conventional mortgage with 10% down. Should your seller jump on that offer? Not so fast, I say!

The lender could not secure the (1 comments)

brevard: Renting Vs Owning
- 06/23/11 06:03 AM
A major Financial news network had a special update on the Real Estate Market, questioning if Wealth can still be built through owning Real Estate Or is Renting a better way. I would Never choose renting to build wealth! The only benefit of renting is if one just cannot afford to own in their area or cannot qualify. Rent is ok for a short term stay for employment. However if you can purchase at a price that warrants cash flow, I say still buy, live in it, then rent it! If you rent for 5 years at $1,200.00 per month That's (0 comments)

In just the 4th quarter Apple sold over 16 Million I-Pads and over 6 million I-Phones. They are exceeding all of the revenue and earnings estimates.

brevard: I-Pad Helps Me Save Money and Sell Real Estate
- 11/06/10 03:41 AM
That's Right, The I-Pad saves me lots of time and additional savings from spending a fortune on INK to print! I am now saving $60 per month just in INK by having the I-Pad. I used to print the properties when going out to show homes, a copy for me (agent copy) and customer copy. Now I just populate the link to my I-Pad via the MLS and we review the information directly from the I-Pad. It is Also a HUGE Time Saver when you are out and about and your client say's, Stop the Car, what about that home?? I (5 comments)
brevard: Holiday "Busy"Ness Is Here!
- 11/06/10 03:30 AM
Break out the Holiday Decorations, this is the earliest I have seen Christmas items in stores except for a 365 days a year Christmas Store. I saw some stores putting items out 2 weeks before Halloween. What is on your wish list this year? New LED TV? I-PAD? I-Phone 4? One thing for sure, this should be a busy shopping year despite the slower economy. Have you seen how inexpensive it is to purchase a 47 inch TV? I have seen them for $700-$800, and To think that I paid $2995 for a Dell plasma back in late 2004 is mind (3 comments)
brevard: Another Florida Recount?
- 11/03/10 01:13 AM
Its in the air again! The buzz this morning was that Alex Sink has hired attorneys that specialize in recounts. The race is too close to call with 90% of the precincts in a very narrow margin of 1% or around a difference of 53,000 votes separate both Rick Scott & Alex Sink, Scott currently holds a slight advantage 49% to 48% Will it be Rick Scott or Alex Sink or will it be in the hands of attorneys through a recount? One thing for sure is, when it comes to controversy with elections, nobody does it better than Florida. (1 comments)
