This is the first time in almost five months I have been on activerain.  I am like many other real estate agents who after a disappointing first quarter, had to get a job outside of real estate.  I like my new job, but there is little that compares to helping others find a new home or sell their ...

I feel like the Holidays came and went and I went it to.... I have been very busy with REAL ESTATE... that's a good thing... but I am certainly been slacking on my blog.  I know that this is the new way to keep in contact and possibly get referrals, but I am still unsure of it's capabilities.  If...

Just when I  thought it was safe to be in the Real Estate waters... along comes another company that goes belly up and throws us another curve ball.  I was on my way to get an offer signed when the lender called and told me that FHA had changed their guidelines... effective immediately  What was ...

Thanks all who responded, I am not sure that it is where we want it to be yet... but I am hopeful.  I certainly didn't want to sign up for communities and see no benefit from it. When you talk about referrals, I have yet to see one.  How are you all going about getting referrals from activerain? ...

I was wondering what success that other REALTORS that signed up for the localism.com areas are having.  I ask because it is difficult to gauge what allows other REALTORS to be on the site you have secured and are paying for.  I guess I am wondering how one seperates themself from the pack on this...
