I absolutely adore a good transaction manager. They can be the life flow of a real estate transaction. But on the other hand, they can absolutely almost be the death of a transaction, too. Do not heed this warning lightly, Transaction Managers Only Work If They ACTUALLY MANAGE The Transaction.  Perhaps I am a bit spoiled because my transaction manager is incredible at ensuring that all necessary documents are disseminated appropriately amongst all parties to a transaction.  While I trust her implicitly, I also continue to have a hands on approach to each transaction. She handles the paperwork but I check in with her regularly to make sure that all is well. Fellow agents know that they can call me about paperwork any time to get a status update.The problem comes when agents take a very h... 03/01/2011

Four Reasons Why We Can't Go See The House Just Because You See A SignIt happens all too often. I’m out touring a buyer around the homes that we have scheduled to view. They spot another home with a sign out front. Here it comes...”Ooh can we go see that house?” Now comes the part where I explain why we can’t just walk on up and take a look. While this may be a viable option in other markets around the country, it just is not a good practice in the Inland Empire. Let me share why:1. With over 80% of homes being some type of distressed property, we can not just assume that because we see a lock box it is okay to just take a look. Many times the homes are still occupied and may even require an appointment. I have been to homes that appear vacant on the outside but once inside you can see ... 01/28/2011

Four Reasons Why Email and Text Are A Communication DreamEmail, texts, chats, instant messaging, pings....the list goes on and on. Technology abounds.

There’s definitely something warmer about a phone call in comparison with a text or an email.However, do not discount the value of email or text just yet.
