When is it time to switch brokerages? If you've been with your company for a long time or have been unhappy with the ways things are going, you may be wondering what else is out there. What things should you look for in a new company and why should you really make a switch? These are questions I ...

Facebook can lead you down the path to real estate success... but how?? One of the things many agents question me about is how to utilize the social networks to bring them more real estate business.

Think of this as a focus group... Realtors and Brokers ask me all the time what website or what productivity product to choose. I know what things I recommend and why but I'm interested in what you people are using that you absolutely love. What is it and why do you love it? Maybe there's somethi...
