Sometimes the Littlest Things Can Drive You Nuts They say you shouldn't sweat the small stuff. I don't believe it for a second.  Whoever said that first is an idiot. They certainly weren't thinking about my Blackberry, or technology.  Speaking of little things, my trackball went on the fritz the other day.  Not completely, just enough to drive me nuts.  I could scroll left, right and up, but not down. Weird, and a pain in the tail.  No scrolling down through emails and recent phone calls No checking in on Foursquare No accessing apps below the top navigation line  It's amazing how such a little thing could be such a burden, and an aggravation. I was crippled, unable to communicate on my beloved BB! It was NOT such a little thing after all.  Thankfully I got a new trackball at A to Z Wir...

There are a few little details you may want to add to your buyer’s checklist, just for your own peace of mind. Change the Locks It’s exciting to get those keys on the first day isn’t it?  (It’s exciting to hand them over, too).  But, don’t hang on to them.  You just don’t know who may still have one, and after going through all the hard work to buy this house, protect it!  Have all the locks changed the day you move in.  This is especially important on a foreclosed property, but even on a brand new home from the builder, it’s a good precaution.  Recycle Moving Boxes - Once you’ve emptied them out, they’ll just be in your way. Chances are, your real estate agent has another client (or perhaps a colleague’s client) who will need them and pick them up for you.  Less hassle for you and envi...

Real Estate Limbo Game- How low can you go before you are out of business or out of breathe? Every now and then there is a featured post about an agent taking out a buyer in the very low price ranges like $40,000 and below. I am not sure if they are seeking approval for their decisions, getting feedback for their decisions or perhaps exalting this action on their part. Whatever the reason- the important thing is that if this is a part of your business plan or not it is your decision. This is a business. Yes, it is a people business. Yes, we care about our clients. But it is still a business and needs to be run like a business.  How you work your business is your business. Whatever floats your boat.  However, if you are planning to be different than 90% of the agents with licenses that a...

How many times have you added a “friend” in Facebook or decided to “follow” someone on Twitter only to discover his or her participation in social media is limited to a link to a blog post or canned article and nothing else.   You realize after a few weeks they don’t join the conversation by interacting with you or anyone else. At some point the one hand waving approach to social media leads friends and followers to click the UN button.  What UN button?  The un-follow and un-friend one.  And that is only for the folks you know are following you.  There are those pesky lurkers.  The ones who never say anything to you directly but after watching your lack of interaction decide your one-dimensional approach to social media isn’t worth following anymore.    Have you ever stopped to think ab...

In case you were wondering....  Here is the difference between the image title and the image description - preferably for your AR (Active Rain) posts but useful everywhere images are inserted. Being new to Active Rain I am coming across a lot of details that some bloggers may not know.  (and I'm not seeing a lot explanations about) This is one where it may be a bit confusing as to which location to add which tag. Image Description, also called the Tag is what Google and other search engines will see because they cannot see images. If you want search engines to "see" your image for what it is, you must add a description to it. This is the image description. Image Title  is what actual visitors will see when they hover over the image. The below image has a TITLE of "This is a pictur...

I'm not sure what I was expecting out of RainCamp, but I can say for sure that it was much more than I was anticipating.  SOOOOOOO much more. Even now, 24 hours later, I am still on intellectual overload - organizing my ideas, researching and refining my social media strategies, and reconsidering fundamental questions about how I reach clients.  If nothing else - it took my blinders off and showed me the almost limitless possibilities that exist.  I learned more than I ever wanted to about integrating Twitter (still feels awkward to me to tweet), blogging, SEO, and Google rankings.  It was at once impressive, exciting and slightly daunting. It's clear that if I want to reach the next level in my marketing efforts, I must create a comprehensive strategy that crosses the boundaries of my ...

What could be more beautiful than the holidays in Geneva IL?

How many of us have seen an agent in this predicament...   Running around the office, asking where this is, and where that is...  How to find that "pricing triangle thingie", or the "time on the market graph", or maybe the "in the market-out of the market pricing walk through"...  Asking you how to head bind, or spiral bind or just plain bind all the junk that they had compiled...  Or worse, asking you how to use the MLS !!!  How to come up with comps, how to do a CMA, how to actually log in!  And then they come up to you and ask how you would respond to a commission objection... Ohhhh man, and don't get me started on how to use their lockbox key to open lockboxes or how to update it... (Now you all know, I would gladly help any of my agents with any of the above...  But back to the sto...

RainCamp is coming to Houston on Monday, December 6th and it’s going to be a frog-strangler (I’ve heard this is a term Texans use to mean “an extraordinary amount of rain,” although it sounds pretty graphic).   RainCamps don’t come around often, so catch it now and don’t miss out!    For you RainCamp newbies, RainCamp Houston will help you take your ActiveRain blog to the next level by learning how to use even more social media vehicles to create the perfect marketing trifecta. For you RainCamp veterans, you’ll no doubt learn some new tips, reconnect with some amazing people and even take away at least one “ah-ha” moment (I say at least one, but I really mean five or six).       And you can’t escape RainCamps without the networking! Finally meet face-to-face with other ActiveRain membe...

Now please don't get the idea I am Taylor Swift stalker, since I just wrote on her a few weeks ago....well her hair. Actually this article on Under30Ceo, goes right along with it. As we are approaching the end of the year, I know many of us are thinking, planning, and getting ready for 2011. When I hear the toils, troubles, and determination of others and then read of their success, I get excited. To wet your lips here is an excerpt: Determination Can Start at Any Age.

Hello out there in, well, wherever you are. *big, deep breath* Driving home from the office a few minutes ago, I thought of about 3 million things that I wanted to say on my inaugural blog. Sitting down here to actually type them, they all ran away. I was afraid that would happen. But, the one thing I DO remember is that I was going to write this, whatever "this" is. I thought I'd come up with a cute title. (I kinda, did. Didn't I?) I figured I'd introduce myself, but I don't think anyone will actually see this. Which is okay. I just wanted to throw something, anything, out there. That way, I've started. No turning back. Now that I did it, what next? Here's what I figure. (correct me if I'm wrong) Each blog will get easier... I read about first-time-bloggers' hearts racing when they hit...

WHY MANY BANKS ENCOURAGE THE HOME OWNER TO DEFAULT BEFORE THE HOME OWNER CAN APPLY FOR A SHORT SALE OR LOAN MODIFICATION??  An interesting comment on a member's blog post about a class action lawsuit and the bank's requirement that the home owner first DEFAULT, see,  "Big Bad Banks". . . . .  Comment:  "I find it hard to believe that the lender really actually encouraged a default." HA!  I find it hard to believe that an ActiveRain member could possibly doubt that a bank would "encourage a default".  MANY banks not only encourage default, they require it!  The writer stated further, "They [the bank] more likely just stated the guidelines as they are." (emphasis added). What guidelines????  It is perhaps possible that some loan officers have not been exposed to real live home owners who ...

I used this phrase when I was chatting with an agent recently. The question was how to deal with a seller who could not understand why agents who previewed her home were critical in any way. Of course, sellers need to hear the truth. However, I like to think of it as how to reach a common goal. If we are constantly discussing issues with our clients in the same way, and as agents we do not like the outcome, I think we need to be smart enough to change our approach or response. For example, if the seller says 'How dare they say the kitchen is too small' - I hear that the seller is taking it personally. They may be stressed in this market and tired of keeping their home show-ready.  Defending the other agent at this point gets her more upset. Yes honey, your bum does look big in that, doe...

BIG-BAD-BANKSBorrowers Sue to Reverse the ScrewOne of my morning routines is to spend an hour or so reading updates on what’s happening in the world of banks, lenders, servicers, Robo-Signing, foreclosures, short sales, etc. This is what I refer to as “The Land of Oz” because when dealing with Big-Bad-Banks we are often dealing with people without hearts or brains. Many mornings, as I read and enjoy my coffee, I do not read anything I believe is news-worthy. This morning however, as I was perusing DSNews, one headline caught my eye: Defaulted Borrowers file Lawsuit against Wells Fargo.After working San Jose Short Sales for over two years, I am intrigued by reading that borrowers are taking action against their beloved banks and loan servicers and attempting to hold them accountable for ...

Tis the season to be jolly. Are you buying a new home in Middleton Wisconsin or the greater Madison Wisconsin area? You will feel much more jolly if you follow these handy do's and don'ts during the loan process for purchase of your new house. Don't be naughty or it will be much harder for Santa to deliver you the keys for your new home. Do respond to any calls or emails from your lender or Realtor ASAP. Time is of the essence. Do continue making payments staying current on your mortgage/rent and ALL accounts. Do keep working at your current employer. Do choose your new insurance company as soon as possible.

I started with 2657 contacts loaded into Top Producer. This is the culmination of my 28 years in business and all the people I know and have worked with.   I think 1750 contacts is a more accurate guess of the number of actual contacts worth putting into Top Producer, some of it is doubled up and some is no longer valid.  If I have 550-750 stick that would be good.   I am down to 2468 as of this morning.  I have put in 80 myself for a 280 swing towards getting the data base with the right people in the right action systems.  All of this will be done before the end of the year. Yesterday I made 16 calls and brought down the contacts number by 40.  I have no idea what the average for this work will be.  It is 100% prospecting time.  While I am prospecting I am building a database of conte...

  Social media is so popular now, that the scammers have really gotten better at hacking into our personal information.    You can never be too careful with your information.   Be safe while you are enjoying social media.   The following 15 activities, all of which are facilitated by Facebook and other social networking websites, are causing lots of heartache and headaches: 1. Posting illegal activities. In the little town where I grew up, 30 kids recently faced the wrath of their parents, school officials, law enforcement, and the Boston media, all because someone posted their party pictures, which depicted underage drinking, on Facebook. It’s never okay to show illegal behavior. 2. Account hijacking. Phishers imitate the Facebook email template, tricking victims into believing they ha...

Denver is #9 - S & P/Case Shiller Home Report This report completed in September, viewed housing markets across the Country, and rated the top 20 Metropolitan areas.     This report was for a 12-month period ending September 2010, and the overall report indicates a .6% one-year gain in values.       San Francisco showed the biggest gain at 5.5%, and Chicago showed the biggest drop, falling by an average of 5.6%. With this information, indicators are showing Denver's 2011 real estate market will again remain stable.    As interest rates are starting to increase, it is still quite amazing buyers are not taking advantage of the historical lower rates.     With continual increasing job opportunities in Denver, this will help the consumer confidence level in the upcoming months to boost the ...

  The calendar year 2010 is on the wane, and it is time to make some last minute income tax decisions. The end of one tax cycle and the beginning of a new presents a once a year opportunity to minimize income tax liability by paying expenses in the tax year that is most likely to have the highest income. For example, if you have had an unusually bountiful 2010, you may want to incur some additional expenses that you would normally pay in January or February. Conversely, if this has been a particularly bad year and you expect significantly more income next year, it is better to defer as many expenses as you can until 2011. The same goes with income. If you were planning on cashing in a bond or selling some stocks to pay holiday expenses, you might want to consider postponing the income t...

TOP 10 REASONS TO OBTAIN REAL ESTATE MENTOR FOR 2011 I have been in the real estate industry for the past seven years. I spent the first fourteen years in corporate America. I was thrown into the real estate industry. However, I knew I had to obtain a mentor in order to survive in real estate. I needed someone to teach me the ropes. Real estate is very competitive. Many agents do not like to teach other new agents based on creating more competition in the field. Why? That was my question. There is enough business for everyone in this field. Senior agents brag about their knowledge. However, they are not willing to share it. Has anyone else experienced this practice?

If you can rent an apartment for $2,000 month instead of buying one for $2,400 a month, renting may make sense. But will you save that $400 for your future? A lot of people won't. Most, I dare say. Once again, you have to do your math, but the part of your mortgage payment that goes to principal repayment isn't a cost. You're just paying yourself by building equity. As a forced monthly saving, it's a good discipline.
