National Association of REALTORS Convention 2014

I can’t wait to go through Finance World where we find the latest on nano-mortgage technology from Bank of United States (the company after the B of A/Citibank/ J P Morgan Chase merger) where an iris scan and fingerprints get done and the each borrower with ...
Inman’s Got Enough Money. Let’s Give Some To MFFO
It doesn’t get any better than this – you can actually get Inman Connect Tickets and help a charity at the same time! I was the lucky winner of Inman Real Estate Connect Registration Passes and with the creative help of some friends (thanks @tcar and @andykaufman) decided to auction them for charity. I’m sure @jbern had no clue what ...

Your Word is Golden…or not
On Tuesday morning I woke up and read a Tweet on Shaun Donovan, Secretary of HUD, announcing that first time buyers could now access their $8000.00 tax credit in the form of a bridge loan and use it towards their down payment on the house they were buying. I went to NAR press release and read the posted the comment ...
ReTechSouth… Practicing What you Preach
ReTechSouth is this Friday, March 20th in Atlanta, Georgia. By now you either know about it and are coming or it didn’t quite make your schedule this year. Social Media in Action I have been to a lot of conferences this year, NAR, Inman, Keller Williams. I have to say ReTechSouth the best organized conference I have ever planned on ...
Tell Me Something Good
Typical “Hey, how are you doing?” “Fine” “How are you?” “Good, you?”….as we walk away The Reunion Clint Swindall was the Key Note Speaker at Keller Williams Family Reunion, held in Orlando a couple of weeks ago. Clint is the author of Engaged Leadership and a Owner of Verbalosity. Instead of the same o same o greeting, Clint suggested greeting ...
CRISIS…
Be Prepared “The next 180 days may be the toughest economic days we will ever experience in our lifetime.” This was spoken by Gary Keller at the recent Keller Williams Family Reunion I attend in Orlando.I admire someone of Gary’s stature who pulls no punches. Not many leaders are willing to do that, including our own trade organization. There was ...
Quick Thoughts on Reputation and Mindshift
Image Credit Look: I said some things that are apparently going to haunt me, and the only picture I took was of a couple of Teletubbies at the restaurant, but it wouldn’t have been Vegas if things weren’t at least a little bizarre. I’ve been flipping through my notes from BlogWorld, both the Real Estate and the Regular variety. There ...
Blog It Forward!
(Just one of many random observations from the BlogWord Conference in Las Vegas) Ahead of the Blog Curve Was it just me, or did the sessions on Saturday and Sunday seem a tad bit, well,…. basic? While relaxing in the Speaker’s Lounge, catching up on some Twits, I was also talking with Mr. Transparent, Pat Kitano. He agreed that our ...
Are Online Relationships Fake?
I just returned from a week at Inman Connect and over and over I heard “it is all about the relationships”. It left some of us feeling a little disappointed that there weren’t more tips and tricks from technical standpoint that could take our blogging and our real estate business in general to the next level. My goal was to ...
Approaching Inbox Zero
Inbox 8,907 My favorite formal session of Inman Real Estate Connect last week was the keynote address. Merlin Mann of 43Folders.com discussed “Inbox Zero” — action based email management and a system to curb the problem of email overload. As I sat in the presentation, reviewing email on my blackberry at the same time, about all I could think of ...
I’m not a cool guy anymore (as if I ever was before)
All The Cool Kids Are Doing It OK, I know I’m not going to be with the cool crowd next week at Inman. But while my new baby Wolverine has me at home learning to be a dad, I would love for someone to bring me back a souvenir. Not the cheesy t-shirt kind of souvenir, but something that will ...
