A few years ago, Neal Boortz, an Atlanta Radio Talk Show Host and legend (in his own mind if no other) brought to light a something VERY important.

He informed the population of Atlanta that the city’s water supply had thousands of tons of a compound called “Dihydrogen Monoxide.” The water supply was simply full [...]

I’ve been absent for a few days… I know that this post is dated 5/20, but I am actually writing it on 5/22. I’m going to get caught up.

I have still been writing… and writing a LOT. I’ve been building a different type of website for a property. And for [...]

You aren’t going to find many real estate agents that are going to say this…
You may need to talk with an agent that specializes in helping people through short sales!
And it isn’t me.
That’s right.  It isn’t me.  I don’t specialize in foreclosure mitigation or short sales.  It seems to be the “hottest” new specialty [...]

My wife is at the beach with the kids… So it is a Guy Weekend here at the Lane house.

Welding in the garage… I’m going to get some things done with the Jeepster…
Some “Guy Movies” … like a Jackie Chan flick.
Working. That is after all, why I didn’t go.

So, here is a little bit [...]

I keep seeing so much about the high cost of gas, gas tax schemes and who is to blame.  Well, I need to toss my nickel into the fray and clear up a few things…

Let’s take the last one first, Who’s to blame? If you listen to many in front of the media’s cameras, it [...]

I wrote a “Member’s Only” post pointed at real estate professionals on ActiveRain that was mostly a rant about one of the many emails I received in regards to email marketing.  In essence, this email said that as a real estate agent, I should be pulling back on my marketing because the market is tough…  [...]

I’m curious, because I’m working on a website for aproperty that may end up with hundreds of photos.

Is that too many?

If you are interested in a house, how many pictures are too many?

Comment, or feel free to email.

It is tough.  I want there to be enough pictures to adequately show all of the details of [...]

I heard two interesting points on the news today.  First, the screaming-stay-tuned-after-the-break headline…
Foreclosure filings skyrocket 65%
And then the less hyped statistic…
One home is 500 in some stage of the foreclosure process
That means that 0.2% of homes are somewhere in the foreclosure process.  That means that previously it had been 0.12%.
Does that sound as ominous?

This is Part II (kind of) of Don’t make me call you…

ok, I admit it is just because the titles work well together… Don’t make me call you… but I can.  Anyway, here is the actual content.

If you list your home for sale, and it expires without selling or is withdrawn, you have consented to [...]

Another in the continuing saga of questions I get asked…
Lane, we want to sell our house, but we don’t want to give it away.
And the companion question:
Shouldn’t I pick the agent that wants to list at the highest price?
Let me take question two first.  No.
Ok, let’s focus on the other question and you’ll see why [...]
