It’s May and our market is heating up hot as the parking lots outside Museum Tower. I don’t know how the SPCA might feel about this, especially as it gets hotter, but how about some live “eye candy”, especially if you live near water? Check out the simple iphone video I took at Paigebrooke when we were filming…
Have I ever told you my story, why I am so obsessed with real estate and why I blog? It goes like this: I was a journalist, a magazine journalist, who covered real estate as a journalistic beat, then got hooked. I realized that blogging about homes and featuring them on the web is really…
Love this house! Signs that we are having a little bubble blip here, this is a SPEC home my dear readers! Not yet even on the market, or just went on, I know they just swifter-ed the floors. If you are seeking a brand-new construction in University Park by a quality builder, look no further…
Real estate rules. But have I ever told you my story, why I am so obsessed with real estate and why I blog? It goes like this: I was a journalist, a magazine journalist, who covered real estate as a journalistic beat, then got hooked. I realized that blogging about homes and featuring them on the web is really the only and best way to market homes. If you disagree, I want to know. And I may challenge you to an ad dual. Agents in Silicon Valley don’t even bother with print any more: 89% of buyers search for homes on line, and internet buyers’ incomes are 25% higher than traditional print buyers. By the time a certain listing is printed, that home may have a price change or even be sold, if anyone ever reads it. In fact, the homes we feature are selling sell and when we write about a home, the open houses are overflowing. This one sold four days after our posting. From a reader in Plano:
I know you are out there, another real estate nutcase like me who has overcome impossible odds in dealing with REO properties? You’ve transformed stinkers into stunners, losers into lovers, lemons into lemonade with a strong splash of vodka.
Well, Housingwire Magazine is looking for you as they seek their first AGENT X, a true REO superstar. And there are some major perks involved, so pay attention.
