Online and Going out of Business... 2007-05-21 10:09:50 Online Real Estate Services Ever heard, "What commission do you charge? What's your rate?.... Are you more than your rate or commission? I wrote an article last week asking Do Home Buyers Get Full Service or is it Pump it Yourself? It generated a lot of thoughtful responses and one by Steven L. Smith inspired this post. Steven talks about how everyone he knows now books their travel online - ergo the demise of the brick and mortar travel agency.It got me to thinking about various Real Estate & Mortgage industry models and how they are changing before out eyes. Blogging, IDX - MLS; home value estimators online, daily email updates, online mortgage applications etc. There's no denying it's changing - but will it good for me or put me out of business?

Do Home Buyers Get Full Service or is it Pump it Yourself? 2007-05-16 20:57:15 Clearwater Florida Home Buyers
I had something happen today in Clearwater, Florida that made my jaw drop and I just had to share it with you all. It made we think about the extinction of Full Service
Gas Stations. How did it happen? When did it all start.....maybe it was when buyers no longer "valued" the extra service over price...we often discuss our services as Listing Agent, however today I'd ask that you answer wearing your Buyer's Agent hat? We had a potential buyer today, we'll call him Bob. Bob was referred to us by one of our past Tampa Bay real estate clients - normal enough, right? So one of the first questions we ask Bob is, "Have you been pre-qualified for your mortgage?" What Bob said next made me drop my jaw...He said, "Yes, I was prequalified for a mortgage by "big national real estate company". Ok at this point I'm wondering why he's talking to us and not the other Clearwater real estate agent??? Well I didn't have to wonder long because Read more:Yourself

If you ask him, George will tell you his real estate business philosophy is “if I take care of my clients/customers needs and show them respect, my production will take care of itself.” George Tallabas is twice as effective for you because he is fluent in both English and Spanish. He also has developed the nation's first bi-lingual hotline to give his Idaho home buyers information in both English and Spanish. So how does that benefit all George's home sellers in Idaho? He can help more home buyers which means your home is exposed to all Nampa home buyers.Whether you are looking to buy a Nampa home, relocate, or sell a home in Nampa Idaho or the surrounding areas - George Tallabas is a great choice!

What Makes a House a Home in Clearwater, Florida 2007-05-25 00:42:08 Clearwater, Florida
~ Someone asked me recently, "What makes a house a home?" - Having an analytical side, I decided to research how the dictionary defines "house" and "home".... Official Definition of Clearwater, Florida House
and Home:Checking on-line The Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary says a House is,"a building that serves as living quarters for one or a few families" and a Home is, "one's place of residence". While that may be factually correct, it just felt flat for me - like it missed the real essence of the question. So I put on my Realtor Hat .... Clearwater Realtor's Definition of House and Home: Now Being a full-time real estate agent in Clearwater, Florida, my business and my passion, is all about houses.
