Save the hassle of having to build and take the virtual walk through tours of three new houses for sale in Maine. More and more people in crowded population centers know they have to move sooner or later. The COVID lock down and working from home remotely just helped prove the point. It becomes clear as a bell like when the bright lights come on and the bartender hollers "Time to go and we don't care where but you can not stay here."The numbers don't like and the reasons causing the moving to Maine are high cost of living, lots of crime, too much traffic and just plain lack of space. Small town rural Maine locations are appealing because everyday living is so so much simpler.Bang, head in any direction in a small Maine town and you are out in nature and wildlife. You find yourself hikin...

Flying a plane and listing a property to sell.Lots of similarities between learning to fly and success listing selling real estate. For both you need experience before getting off the ground and returning to land safely. Situational awareness with no distractions and all the preparation before you lift off and go up into the wild blue yonder. Just like your flying coordinates, you need to know where your listing is situated in the current real estate market. If your owner says "I don't have to sell but I would in a heart beat if I can get four, maybe five times it's fair market value".There's a red flag to not ignore in real estate. Much like low fuel warning lights blinking on the dash of your Cessna 172 or flying something more exotic.Kindly show the comparable value of a house listin...

ActiveRain used to be a goldmine for real estate SEO.For years, it ranked incredibly well on Google. Real estate agents could easily dominate local search results. Cranking out like busy little beavers the original not machined blog posts about listings, neighborhoods, or local real estate market updates.But over time, major shifts in SEO algorithms and platform ownership changes diluted its effectiveness. So ActiveRain, then and now boiling down the nitty gritty.As Johnny Cash would say to his band mates... "Boys, let's bring it all home."Here’s a breakdown of what happened and why ActiveRain doesn’t work like it used to:📉 1. Google Algorithm Changes (2011–Present) Panda (2011) penalized thin or low-quality content and duplicate posts. Many ActiveRain blogs were cookie-cutter. Penguin...
