Gwinnett County Realtor-Using Craigslist and other free sites to advertise real estate 2008-11-24 17:28:30
I love the internet! Where else could you advertise something for nothing and have it exposed to literally millions of people? There are hundreds if not thousands of sites you can use to sell anything, including real estate. About a year ago I started using Craigslist and about 10 other free sites to advertise my listings but until then relied heavily on the MLS to sell these listings. I giv Read more:County

Gwinnett County Georgia Real Estate Short Sale- Are you a candidate? 2008-09-30 09:03:09
The definition of a short sale has nothing to do with the time it takes to sell your home in this market. Rather, a short sale is the agreement of your lender to negotiate a sales price for your home that is less than what you actually owe. It can be an alternative to foreclosure but is a very lengthy and tricky process that not all homeowners will qualify for. I've put together a short qu Read more:County

Are you a Jack of All Trades and Master of None? 2008-08-16 03:19:48 During a recent round of golf I started thinking about something really too deep to think about while playing golf. That thought was.......What one thing do I do that I would consider myself an expert?
Unfortunately, I didn't come up with anything and ever since I've been thinking about it. I've actually become quietly obsessed with this thought and haven't really discussed it with anyone. Should Read more:Master
Dacula Ga Retail Growth-Everyone wants to be in Dacula!! 2008-08-11 13:53:53 Well folks you know Dacula couldn't stay the sleepy little corner of Gwinnett County too long, right? If you're a resident of this area then you've noticed over the last few years that there are new shopping centers and retail outlets popping up all over and that's because developers finally realized that Dacula is a relatively under-developed area of Gwinnett County with good demographics and hig Read more:Growth

of Braselton is a swim/tennis neighborhood just across from Chateau Elan and also has a greenspace park adjacent to it along the Mulberry River.

Lead Capture with 800 Number-I hope it works 2008-07-30 22:30:23 I'm embarrased to say I spent most of the day today setting up my new 800 number online. (after my lead generating activities of course) This was not an easy task mostly because the new microphone I installed on my laptop would not install correctly. I blamed it on MS Vista and even if that wasn't the issue I'm still sticking with that story because Vista is not my friend. Once that problem was so Read more:Number
Metro Atlanta Golf Neighborhoods Greg Norman, Davis Love III or Jack Nicklaus? 2008-07-20 21:32:51 Most people don't think of Atlanta
as a golf town but the truth is Atlanta has many great championship golf courses. Most of these great courses wind their way through some very upscale and prestigious neighborhoods throughout the 13 county metro area. Some very familiar names are associated with these courses too which make them all the more appealing.
If you like Jack Nicklaus and his cours Read more:Davis

Gwinnett County Parks Are Top Notch 2008-07-18 20:31:20 If you live here in GwinnettCounty
Georgia I don't have to tell you about how great the parks are. This post is for the benefit of the folks that might be thinking of moving to the area. Usually parks are not a consideration for a buyer but with all the great facilities here it is definitely a perk and should be noted so here it goes. (I promise I'm not being paid anything for this post!!)

Your listing has expired....now what? 2008-07-17 09:51:36 Your frustration level is high because your listing has expired. You lowered the price twice and still no traffic. Your agent held open houses and the only people that came were your neighbors that you don't really like but tolerate because they have a pool. Now you're off the market and wondering what next?
If you haven't already relisted with the previous agent, take a step back and evalua
Atlanta Sellers Pay Attention!! Offers are flying and contracts are closing! 2008-07-13 22:24:58 Everyone knows the real estate market has been suffering lately and every time I turn on the TV I hear some reporter talking about how the housing market is still on a down trend and values are declining blah blah blah. It's no secret the market is down from 3 years ago but folks.....it had nowhere to go but down!!! In 2005 you could sit in your office playing internet chess and a contract would f Read more:Atlanta

SEO, BPO, REO and other O's 2008-02-12 19:53:36 All these acronyms and they all have an "O" in them and all are related to real estate. (okay, SEO
is a stretch but for the sake of this blog, it is) A coincidence, I think not. I think the "O" is a clever marketing letter and is just better at it than its fellow alphabetaens. My theory is the "O" had a very good teacher and did its homework on how to get seen. This i
Website creation......advice from fellow REALTORS 2008-01-21 15:48:36 I consider myself to be computer/internet savvy.....this is to say I don't have a problem using the internet to find most of what I need. (Like my wife over 8 years ago!) This does not include website building unfortunately so I thought I would include my fellow
REALTORS in my search and ask if anyone has suggestions or referrals for a great website designer. I have Googled t
