I just read a blog from Jim Crawford on ActiveRain.  He makes some valid points but I have to say that when I think of what NAR does for me, as an individual REALTOR, I just think of the legislative lobbying.

If you don't, you should probably consider another profession or become accustomed to mediocracy since we are in one of the most competitive industries. For those of you who want to be the be...

I have been in real estate for just shy of two years now. I jumped in with both feet and just knew I was going to be the number one agent in my office within 6 months! Well, I got off to a great start and listed my first property within 30 days; wrote my first offer within 45 days; and then had m...

I am wondering if there are any agents/brokers out there that can lend some clarification to my thoughts on small town real estate versus big city real estate? Every book that I have read concerning how to sell real estate or how to generate business for my real estate career is always based on m...
