Can someone please tell me that when a person is about to list a property or hire a real estate professional, that they are concerned with how much a person blogs?????? I would personally like to thank many of these blog forums for allowing the weak and inexperienced real estate associates to find answers and shoot questions to the real estate associates, while UNDERCUTTING their own commissions and taking the listing(s) away from the experienced. Blog forums are a waste to the consumer in real estate. Why do they exist? If an associate does not know an answer, why aren’t they asking management? If a broker does not know an answer, Why are they a broker and/or can’t they ask a real estate attorney? If you need another real estate associate coddling your hand to say, “It’s All right. You did the right thing”,,,,,you need another profession. Get out of the real estate industry. These economic times in real estate, need to allow the weak real estate professionals to die off and move on to another industry… most blog forums like you mentioned above have ALLOWED the real estate industry to stay put (a 100 yrs in the past) while other non-real estate member companies have thrived. So the Tony Senas and other owners of real estate blogs. YOU DON’T ROCK! www.aarsteam.com www.nosellercost.com

I do think their needs a change in some way for the “Fee For Services” that many real estate professionals serve by or are licensed under. The problem though reverts back to the real estate professionals undercutting and doing little to nothing on a real estate transaction (Not all real estate professionals are classed in this statement) giving the public a bad taste utilizing a real estate professional, therefore expanding the companies of forsalebyowner, trulia, etc. Just like the automotive and other plagued industries, when you build or have a product that is meager or lacking effort by it’s members or corporate entities, the consumer jumps ship to other companies or says, “No Way”. The commission era shall never change. It will only get worse for the experienced, knowledgeable, and very savvy real estate professional who actually deserves more compensation. No matter what technology brings to the table, a persons emotions and experience can never be replaced. That is where a very good real estate professional evolves for the consumer. The solution is, get rid of the real estate associates with barely a heartbeat or a passion (in your own office) who does NOT value thyself or the industry… Easy as that. www.aarsteam.com www.nosellercost.com

"Photos are important, but also a bit over-rated" Please validate this statement.... Do you also feel the real estate sign is over-rated also? How about the internet being over-rated since you can't smell things or hear noises at someone's home? That is a ludicrous statement. www.aarsteam.com www.nosellercost.com
