By Dave Robison A few years ago I experimented with a very powerful lesson. I was four hours away from home and had a potential seller call me up. Becky explained to me that due to time constraints she could only meet with me at 6 p.m. I wasn’t due home until 8 p.m. I decided to leave early and …
By Jason O’Neil March. In like a lion out like a lamb…it is one of my favorite months. Yes, my birthday is in March, but so is St. Patrick’s Day, the first day of Spring, and let us not forget about the Ides.

And since the economy hit the skids, it’s become increasingly difficult to “plan” for anything as of late. But the one thing I’ve made a commitment to do this year, is to ask advice …
By Dave Robison According to NAR’s report about real estate professionals, the majority of us came from admin jobs rather than sales jobs.

By Crystal Webster Let me tell you a little story of what actually happened to me just the other day: I met with a new client just out of college. We met through one of my networking groups and he seemed like a very nice guy. At the end of our meeting he suggested I come and “check out what …
By Kelly Reark Recently, I had the opportunity to speak with some other real estate agents within our local association’s Board of REALTORS®.
