My Blog

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Holly Curley Choice Realty, Inc.

This is my first ever Blog but I am hopeful it is only the first of many.

I just returned from the National Assocaition of Realtors convention in Washington, D.C. It was an incrediable experiance as it has been in the past but this time I found that the focus was on Real Time!

Now when I say Real time I don't just mean here and now, face to face but in all aspects of the meaning with currect technology to man. I know we have all heard about the Iphone and other technolgy that will make our lives more efficient but if you are not currently taking advantage of this technology and other's then you are missing the boat!

As I just mentioned this is my first Blog, I must say I was motivated at the convention to get "Blogging". From what I learned "Blogging" is also a great means of utilizing technology to your advantage. It appears there are many great bloggers out there in cyberspace, you could be one of them. Not only is this a great way to share thoughts but possibly increase business...why not!

So, in the interest of keeping this first blog short and sweet I will end today by saying take a look at the Realtor.org web site, sign up for Activerain and read, read read your porfessional organization magazines and other Real Estate related Blogs on technology and Real Estate. I believe you will be shocked at some of the statistics out there, especially the number of young Generation X and Y customers and how they are finding their first home's!

Thanks for reading my blog and good luck in the business technolgy world!

Holly

Welcome Holly. I've seen both extremes. Agents with all the latest technology and a bunch who don't even have a website.
