A Not So Focused Real Estate Article

Posted by John Lockwood on December 12th, 2007

coffee_smallThis is a not so focused real estate article.  I’ll let you in on a secret:  we’ll be lucky if it comes into focus at all by the end.

Of course, the flip side of a total lack of structure is a great deal of freedom.  I could, as it were, romp through this article willy nilly, and you could marvel that I don’t fly sheer through one of its flimsy walls.

I just didn’t have the heart for a market update today, to be honest.  Prices are down.  Volume is down.

On the other hand, at Elite Properties, it’s December and we should have a couple of escrows closing within the next week or so, so I consider us ahead of the pack. 

We’re not super high maintenance, just good solid agents who get things done.  We don’t have a lot of big hair.

Our articles usually are a lot more focused than this, however.

It’s not like there aren’t some things that have been on my mind lately, that I was half-heartedly planning to focus on.  If my focusing muse hadn’t flown off somewhere to lie on a couch sipping lattes, I might have tackled:

  • What do real estate production boasts really tell you?
  • Low ball offers and the women who love them.
  • Breaking the ActiveRain habit without expensive gum or “the patch”.
  • What’s up with financing, anyway?
  • How perception drives real estate.
  • The new mortgage blog.  [There's a new mortgage blog?]

In fact, come to think of it, this would make a really nifty little writing agenda for the next week or so. 

It’s hardly as ambitious as Purva’s 312 real estate questions.  I really should ask her to send me that list.  312?  That’s a book length set of questions, all right.

Are we there yet?
