By Drew Burks Breaking News … OK, this is hardly breaking news, but after 10 years in the real estate game this may come as a shock to a few people. To be honest, it kind of shocked me that I am actually throwing in the towel! The past couple of years I have come to understand that my purpose …
By Cory Brewer An agent in my office recently had a deal where the clients on the other side of the transaction carelessly posted information online and it ended up costing them, BIG TIME. When selling a house, it’s very important that the seller provide full disclosure about its condition. When purchasing a house, it’s very important that the buyer …
By Laura Rubinchuk Lately I’ve been convinced that Facebook business pages should be more like a community page, a 365 page, or another way to get your community involved and talking. While I see extreme value in that, and don’t mean to discredit that theory, because there are many ways to make social media work for you, I want to …
By Drew Burks Are You Distracted? In today’s world most of us are overwhelmed with information, new products, and services, most of which provide little more than distraction to the average person.

Yes, it’s great to tweet, comment, or share, but what are you doing to build an actual relationship? I often see others posting superficial things that they don’t have a passion for and they really have no knowledge to discuss. …
By Jeremy Williams In a series I am teaching on social media to a group of agents at the Keller Williams Realty NE office in Kingwood, Texas, I have emphasized that social media should just be one of many components in an agents tool kit for lead generation. With all the new social media sites online, it can be overwhelming …
By Toby Boyce Let me start with this: I don’t work and am not receiving any money for this post – unless Google offers it. And to be honest, I have labored against the “mighty one” for years. But here we sit in 2010 and my mind has started to wonder about where the “G” will take the world next. …
