Selling Homes in the Winter

Selling a home in the dead of winter can be challenging, so says Dana Dratch, for Bankrate.com in this article 13 Tips for Selling Your Home In Winter  http://realestate.msn.com/article.aspx?cp-documentid=13108472 . With tips as simple as turning the thermostat up a couple of degrees, to present the house as a warm welcoming space, and using booties, which suggests the homeowners are meticulous, here you'll find a wealth of information. 

People who are shopping right now are serious buyers. Help your sellers to understand winter buyers NEED a home, ask them to make their homes a refuge from the chill of winter. Homes seem smaller with all of the plants and pets indoors. Your sellers should be made aware of how their home presents to a potential buyer. And it's up to you, the professional REALTOR to bring it to their attention.

Table of Contents: Authority Rules Report

Table of Contents: Authority Rules Report I subscribed to CopyBlogger and this series of articles is excellent, pertinent, content rich, and must be shared.

How'er you doing? With Google, I mean... really. How'er you ranking? If SEO plays any part in your business, you'll want to read this Authority Rules Report. I haven't finished it yet, but I already know it's solid.

Have you thought about Blogging? If you can write -- you can blog. Select a forum and get started. I choose Blogger, Google's offering to the Bloggesphere for a couple or three reasons: 1. It's free. 2. It's user friendly great for beginners. 3. There's a platform that uses your Google Toolbar to publish Blog Posts from any site. 4. I figured Google would give a little more credibility and ranking to their own bloggers. And yeah that's more than three reasons, but that's why I choose Blogger. And I love it, I do, but for business... maybe I should have gone with Hubspot or WordPress. Finding CopyBlogger and subscribing to it has been a huge help.
