Legit

<random rant> I wasn’t sure how to title this post, and “Legit” is the best title I could come up with. I recently came across a blog post on a real estate web site, after seeing it tweeted out by a well known real estate tweeter that I had a lot of respect for.  I’m [...]

Title’s Are A Changin’

I’m coming up on my 10 year anniversary in March 2010 of working with Dizmang Associates Real Estate here in Springfield.  When I first came to work for the company, I was paid $6.00 an hour and I think that The Donald expected me to be his secretary, answer his phones, take rent payments and [...]

Loving Life

No doubt, I’ve been inundated these last 30 days. And updates to this blog seem to be the thing that slips off the radar first when I’m the busiest.  I keep thinking that things will slow down, but for some reason my calendar is all fired up and things are getting booked left and right. [...]

Landlordin’ It

A lot of my job requires me to learn new things on the fly.  Especially these last several days as The Donald has been “out of the office.” I have had no choice, but to figure things out on my own while he has been unavailable for consultation. Nonetheless, while I have done nothing but [...]

Barcamp. Neat or On The Rocks?

When I first heard the term “barcamp,” all sorts of things came to my mind.  Camp out at the bar? I down with that. But barcamp, and specifically REBarcamp, involves a whole ‘nother type of buzz.  As of today, I’ve never actually attended one so I am speaking of this in anticipation of what to [...]

Blogging? What’s That?

I’ve been a bad blogger.  It’s been almost one month since I have updated my beloved blog here.  However, my cage was rattled today by my boss who encouraged blogging in our latest video for work.  Our work recently has included preparing for several upcoming seminars on property management and Web 2.0 that is heavily [...]

I Hate The Word “Guru”

I am guilty of using it in the past, but I am starting to hate the word “guru”.  I know that hate is a strong word.  So maybe I should use the word detest, despise, abhor, pet peeve, loathe… nonetheless, I think you get the picture. At first it was cliche or kitschy.  Now it [...]

Scripting & Re-Scripting

So the first video wasn’t what they wanted.  Back to the drawing board and re-script it.  I would post it, but the first draft isn’t what you should publish, so you will have to wait for the final revision. To re-cap, The Donald and I have been selected to present our “8 Effortless Tips To [...]

Wearing The REALTOR® Pin

I love my job and I love what I do as a REALTOR® and Property Manager. Part of the REALTOR® organization and profession is an unwritten rule to be proud of who you are and what you do.  There are code of ethics courses that every REALTOR® must take each year along with the continuing [...]
