I was recently at my Local bookstore and decided to take a look at what new real estate books were available. To my suprise when I went to the real estate section it was filled with board games. The games section is right beside the real estate section and it had completely taken it over. I couldnt belive it, it made me think Wow is real estate so bad that there is no need for their section in the book store. Then I realized that the real estate books were just moved to the section beside them, the personal finance section. Which makes sense, its personal finance that is so bad. I had to laugh! Its funny that with our economy the priority over real estate and personal finance is board games. Maybe this explains a lot.

Next Month cell phone numbers will go public, this means that if you dont want to be bugged with telemarketers calling you at your cell number you have to register. It only takes a minute to register your cell phone number. Call 888-382-1222 and follow the prompts (you have to call from the cell phone you are registering). It takes 30 days to take effect. Please Pass It On!
Thanks

I know most people hate desk duty. I am not too different than those people, but I dont mind it too much. Most incoming calls are just forwarding to other agents voicemail or giving out a phone number. Two weeks ago I recieved a call on the duty desk, it was someone calling in about a listing. After answering a few questions about the listing, it was obvious that the house didnt meet their needs. I asked if I could send them some other listings through email. They told me they didnt have internet access and didnt want to give out personal information. I told them that I understood and I am not a high pressure salesman. I offered to snail mail them listings that fit their criteria and if they didnt want to they never had to call me and I would never contact them. They agreed and gave me their address. Some agents that I told the story too told me I was wasting my time, I agreed but I still sent the listings. A few days later I recieved a phone call asking to show a listing. Since that time we have looked at several properties and it looks like we could definetly be heading towards a deal. Most of the time doing this would have been a waste of time, but you never know. Dont give up and take advantage of opportunities even if you dont know they are opportunities. Good Luck out there!
