Carnival of Real Estate #31– Welcome to the Big Dance
February 26, 2007 | 19 Comments
The Real Estate Zebra is proud to host the 31st edition of the Carnival of Real Estate. Being that this blog has a little something to do with basketball officiating, and the fact that the NCAA basketball tournaments are just around the corner, I decided to divide the best posts into three groups, two semifinal groups and a championship group.
Since basketball games are officiated in crews of three, I divided the best posts into three “crews.” The first group are the posts worthy of selection for the first semi-final game. The second group are the posts worthy of selection for the second semi-final game. The final group is the cream of the crop, the posts that are worthy of selection for the championship game. I then selected one of those posts to be the Lead Official (or post) for the Championship.
So, without further delay, here is the crew for the First Semi-Final:
3) The Zillow Blog wrote a post about the shrinking American family and the growing American home, leaving us to wonder what people are doing with all this new found space.
2) Nina of the Queercents blog posted an interesting interview with the founder of GayRealEstate.com that covers the emerging real estate niche market of the Gay and Lesbian community.
1) Josh Dorkin of BiggerPockets gives readers good advice about what to do when they want to rent a property, but the potential tenants are less than stellar.
The Second Semi-Final Crew:
3) There aren’t many blogs out there that cover the real estate land market. TheLandJournal.com fills that gap in the blogosphere and gives readers advice on how to handle that rural land they have been holding onto.
2) Mike Price of Mike’s Corner gives real estate professionals a little help when it comes to dealing with SEO and how to avoid SEO companies that prey on the ignorance of real estate professionals when it comes to SEO. Make sure your BSD is working.
1) Lisa Dunn of Real Sage Advice offers a very thoughtful post dealing with the very difficult and emotional subject of deciding how to address the housing needs of an elderly parent or loved one.
The best posts make up the Championship Crew:
3) Maureen Francis of miOaklandCounty.com introduces people to her “lasso”– the reverse offer.
2) Peter Comitini tackles the oft-covered topic of proper pricing and marketing of homes, but does it in a well-written and presented way.
And the “Lead Post,” the only one worthy of tossing the ball for the Championship, in the 31st Edition of the Real Estate Carnival:
1) Kris Berg of the BloodhoundBlog, who wrote a masterful piece about the ABC’s of Agent Hiring.
There were plenty of posts to choose from, and I think I did a pretty good job of picking out the best of them. Truth be told, it was much easier to pick out a winner than to pick out the best posts. Kris’ post really stood out this week. Congratulations to her and all of the other posts featured in this week’s edition of the Carnival of Real Estate. Be sure to get your posts in for the 32nd edition of the Carnival, hosted by the Salt Lake Real Estate Blog.
