This is getting weird. After posting this video, I open my RSS reader to find this post by Jim Duncan. Could this really happen twice in one day?

A Serendipitous Convergence of Genius

November 28, 2007 | 2 Comments

Greg wrote yesterday about people who seem to oscillate at the same frequency.  My wife and I fall firmly into that category (you know, people who can finish each other’s sentences and all).  It is an interesting idea, and who knows, maybe there really is no such thing as coincidence.

If that is true, then it might help explain this:

Yesterday, I wrote one post all day. It was very brief, and that was the point. It needs no further explanation. If, as a home seller, you have trouble grasping this point, or are wrestling with it at all, don’t ask me to list your home.

Funny thing is, I opened my RSS reader this morning to find a post from Barbara Corcoran entitled, “Sell Your House in 30 Days.” She lists 10 things you can do to sell your home faster. I ask you to take note of tip #1:

1. Price it right. A wrong price on the right house equals no sale.

Look familiar?

You may have thought I was being facetious with my post, but I was being deadly serious. I’m just a lowly REALTOR who writes on a blog, so you don’t have to believe me. Barbara, on the other hand, is a regular real estate contributor for the Today Show (among many other professional achievements). Hey, if it’s on TV, then it must be true.

Besides, the Zebra is in her blog roll, so you know has good taste! :-)

1) Over-price it.

A Discussion About Going Paperless

November 26, 2007 | Leave a Comment

I was on BloodhoundBlog.tv last night discussing the paperless transaction with Greg and Kris.  As always, the conversation was interesting and fun.  Check it out.

The entire conversation makes me wonder what the future holds for the Realtorsaurus.

High-Tech Holiday

November 26, 2007 | Leave a Comment

Today I am doing a presentation today for everyone in my office about social media and its potential for our business.  As a quasi-homework assignment, I asked everyone to troll the internet for technologies and sites they either think might be valuable or that they might have questions about.

In response, I get this in my email inbox.

I work with a bunch of smart-alecks.   Just another reason to love them.

Happy Holidays from the Smart Aleck Real Estate Elf Team!

Every Day Is Black Friday

REALTORS don’t get the chance to have just ONE Black Friday. When a home is on the market, EVERY day could be Black Friday.
