We just took on a set of rental listings and we did not have interior dimensions for any of them.  Consequently, I was going to have to measure dozens of rooms, and the idea of taking the tape measure to do it brought up visions of hours and hours measuring the rooms.  So, I went to Home Depot an...

We just got a deal to market a duplex complex of 25 units for a client.  This is their first substantial multi-family complex, and they are just getting geared up with all of their systems.  Does anyone have any recommendations about background checking vendors?

Margaret wouldn't necessarily want me to show you this, but I think it's one of our funniest props that we use in our real estate practice.  It's a life-size cutout of Margaret.  She posed as though she was holding a brochure box, and then I mounted a real brochure box on the cutout.  We use this...

When we started in the real estate business, we threw away the cards from listings after they closed.  But, after about a year, I decided to start keeping all the cards, and we've been doing that for many years now.  I bought a binder at Office Depot and the business card holder pages.  I separat...
