omaha open houses: Home Mortgage Lead-Generating Scam?
- 04/18/09 01:45 AM
Looking for an advertiser for our web site, I came across https://www.mortgageloan.com/ to see local rates at 4 lenders. So, after giving eveything but my blood type and the promise of my first born named after them, i.e. income, email, etc. I received this: Your inquiry has not been sent to a lender. This can happen because: Lenders have exceeded limits for new inquiries today. Your inquiry falls outside of lender loan parameters Lenders below are offering their lowest rates available.

omaha open houses: Nebraska Housing Market Analysis
- 04/18/09 01:31 AM
From Housing Predictor.com, the forecast for Nebraska sounds pretty good! Nebraska Some think the elusive bottom of the housing market could be fairly near in Nebraska, despite the recessionary economy and lack of consumer confidence. Nebraska ranks near the bottom of states in foreclosures, and few mortgages are subprime or Alt A loans, which have triggered the avalanche of foreclosures. Nebraska is a key agricultural producing state, and farmers are concerned about the state of the economy. Farm income is still running at about the same as last year, but drops in the prices of commodities could have a major impact (0 comments)

omaha open houses: The $8,000 tax credit ROCKS, if only they knew!
- 04/15/09 01:11 AM
My partner took advantage of that and when she filed yesterday she found she's getting that and then some. I don't think people realize it's a CREDIT, i.e. if you owe $3,000 in taxes, which isn't unlikely for a non-home owner that can afford a home, appying the tax credit means you'd instead get a check for $5,000. We're not pushing it on our web site we're launching this week but I see the other local broker web sites are making a big deal out of it as they should. I liken that announcement to the announcement that the analog TV (0 comments)
omaha open houses: Open Houses in Omaha - 4114OpenHouses.com
- 04/10/09 08:56 AM
Thanks to all who helped us get back to page 1 for Google, for 4114OpenHouses.com and we went from oblivion to page one for Ask.com as well. Now, how do we keep up there before we launch soon? Blogging seems to have as much an impact as changing and manipulating and fine-tuning the meta tags. Reverse-engineering existing SEO champions is something to consider, eh? It's like that promise from Trulia, "We guarentee if you buy our enhanced placement, you'll be in the top 3 of any search criteria." But they never addressed what happens if 4 people buy into that.

omaha open houses: Consumers don't realize that Buyer's Representatives can be FREE!
- 04/08/09 01:43 AM
Chuck says it best but it's worth repeating: I bought 3 homes before an agent took the time to explain the commission process, i.e. it's either all going to the Listing Agent or split between them and the Selling Agent. Either way, if I'd have known that, I would have used a Buyer's Agent much sooner. (0 comments)

So I did a Google Search for Real Estate Blogs and came up with this web site that claims to have the blogs for Real Estate around the country. http://www.real-estate-blogs.com It says to put a link on here before linking from them to here? So, there I did it! Real Estate Blogs Directory - Directory of real estate blogs and blogs of industries affiliated with and serving the real estate industry. (1 comments)
omaha open houses: The Best Web Site for Buying a Home?
- 04/01/09 12:27 AM
Sure, I'm biased but click on this link and decide if you would know more about this property from our web site than any other. Click on Visual Tour. This takes NO AGENT INPUT and is free, seamless and a great way to view properties. Click on Microsoft's Bird's Eye View and you see it's proximity to the lake. Click on Google's Map/Street View and then type in "Elementary Schools" on "Search the Map" in lower left corner. No other Broker Web Site I've seen has this feature If a consumer learns to use this, they won't want to be without (4 comments)
omaha open houses: Lead Generation - First Come, First Served? Compete and Win?
- 03/31/09 02:16 AM
Help me with this: We're designing a web site and have a huge difference of opinions on how to handle these scenarios: Scenario 1: One consumer asks for a Private Showing on 4 properties. Those 4 requests go to 4 different REALTORS®. Scenario 2: That Consumer's requests go to one REALTOR® 4 times.
If M.I.T. is correct in their study last year, there's a 100 X greater chance of a favorable result if you get back to that customer within 5 minutes vs. even 30 minutes, let alone a day, etc. 98% of consumers say they'll work with the first (0 comments)
omaha open houses: What happened to Home Buyer's Stimulus?
- 03/18/09 01:47 AM
Senate Adds $15,000 Home Buyer Tax Credit to Stimulus That was from February 5th. Would that have been nice or what? It would have sparked our website, I'm sure! I mean, AIG gets to hand out $130Million of our dollars, some of it to keep employess that weren't even still working there? And we don't get this? It would be nice to see this coming, even if it is half this amount. The beginning and the end of a recession is in direct correlation to the housing market. I think a $900,000 home in Oakland isn't worth $900,000 and that's part (3 comments)
omaha open houses: How are the big National Web Sites stacking up?
- 03/18/09 12:00 AM
Yahoo! keeps quietly dominating the field. What's going to happen if/when a national database of all real estate is available to these? Will REALTOR.com still be on top? Not bloody likely. Zillow's on the move, overtaking Trulia. Any idea why that would be? The money Google put behind them is like a bottomless pit. I mean come on, Google is running fiber optic cable across the Atlantic themselves to get faster European internet connections. They have money! We want to be there someday right with the rest of them, but not due to some major push of marketing or strong-armed tactics (0 comments)
omaha open houses: The Big Omaha Open House. Is it time to plan for a turn-around?
- 02/26/09 08:18 AM
One of the big Brokers in town had some good stuff to say about the current economic situation as far as home buying is concerned. We thought we'd give credit where credit is due. Larry Melichar had a few nice things to say in the Omaha World Herald. Way to go, Larry. We need everybody to think this way and then it could be a catalyst that speeds up Consumer confidence. If we launch a citywide campaign like "The Big O!pen House" in Omaha and 1,000 people take advantage of the $8,000 tax credit and buy 1,000 others homes, and those (0 comments)

omaha open houses: 4114Stephen is my new web-page
- 02/20/09 12:00 AM
In an attempt to practice designing web-sites, and to get rid of all that commercial stuff on the home pages offered by the likes of Google, MSN, Yahoo! etc., I've designed a home page and am in the process of getting the domain name for 4114Stephen.com.

"Schedule a Showing" is what other broker sites show. "What does that really mean to you, the consumer?" I have asked different friends and relatives. "I don't know." They reluctantly admit. "Why do you ask?" they ask. "Would 'Schedule a PRIVATE Showing' make more sense?" I prod them with my leading question. "Well yeah," they say. "I can call up and see it on my own?" the ask like it's a whole new message. Are we missing out on that portion of (2 comments)
omaha open houses: "The Banks aren't Loaning Money"
- 01/28/09 02:17 AM
Is this the situation in Omaha? Is it difficult to get mortgages? More importantly, is it perceived as difficult, thereby meaning people aren't even thinking of buying a house? If it's available, isn't it smart for the whole industry to let us know? I hear commercials about how business is good here in Omaha and money is available but a concerted effort on the part of mortgage brokers might help. It's all about perception. If I had a borderline credit rating I wouldn't bother to look for money, would I? (1 comments)
Consumers use the internet to shop for homes.
When they find an agent, do they all STOP shopping online? Why not shop online with them?
That's the premise for 4114Homes.com. Instead of taking them to 10 homes on Saturday they MIGHT be interested, send that list of 10 to them and ask which 4 they'd like to see!
Consumers, have you ever pulled into a driveway for a home and said, "I don't want to see this one" without even getting out of the car? You can see the location with TWO Maps using 4114Homes.com
Know before you go? Duh!
