219 mph in Phoenix… Unbelievable!!

If you think I could let this one go, you have another think… And it is coming as fast as this thing was going.

For the first “video in a blog” post I HAVE to put this one up. The only connection to real estate is that I found it posted on Jay Thompson’s (The Phoenix Real Estate Guy) blog. If you are looking for real estate in Phoenix, give Jay a shout… or give me a shout and I’ll send a referral. Jay is a fellow Active Rainer, as well as a good guy. I know he’s going to find this, because I’m on his subscribed list…

So, without further ado, here is the video…

Lend me your “too cool” garage… ok, just tell me about it!

I was going to call this post “A funny thing happened on my way to the Search Engine Results…” and then start it with… I got hijacked. It was one of them long-tailed searches. They sure are sneaky. But, I got hijacked with a different idea, sooo…

I got hijacked. It was one of them long-tailed searches. They sure are sneaky.

This one was called “cool garage toys”. Now, if you take a look at my tags, you’ll see that I have around 30 posts that mention garages. I have over 100 that involve real estate. One might think that I would get some search engine lovin’ for real estate… but, nope. It’s all about garages.

Seriously, my top six search terms are all garages. Now, I will say that there is one post I have here that has surpassed all others in contacts… my phone rings twice a week over it, and it is real estate related, but nobody that calls has the $20M to actually do it, and they just want me to tell all of my secrets… but, for the most part, I think that most of my Googling readers are hitting me looking for the grooviest and coolest garage stuff.

Being a tech savvy guy (think Steve Martin’s “wild and craaazy guys” line), as well as a garage geek and swift thinking marketer, I have a solution. I want to see YOUR garage. That’s right… YOUR garage.

So, being the swifty that I am, after a mere 4 1/2 months, I have figure out that I need to showcase some cool garages. Now, of course this blog isn’t the best platform for it, but I do have a real estate and garage website (duh!) that would be perfect.

No charge. No geographical restrictions. No pressure. I’d just like to see some cool garages. I might even be able to put you on the front lines of a cool reward I’m looking to announce in a week or two as well.

The only thing I ask is that they look better than the sad sack I have pictures of here. This is a truly terrible garage. It is clogged with crap, and needs a much better system for storage. I just haven’t had the time of money to finish the projects that is clogging it up… Talk to my wife. As soon as she let’s me, I will clean it up and turn it into the 26’x24′ one car garage it always wanted to be… with attached tool room.

So, comment and send me an email. I’ll gladly feature YOUR garage on my website. For the whole world to see. Maybe my wife will stop buying purses long enough for me to do something with my own garage.

Oh yeah… If you need a bigger garage, let me know. I’m in Gwinnett County, GA and also work South Hall and South Forsyth. Furthermore, I have agents all over the country that would love to get a “car people” referral.

Client Gateway for Buyers… a cool bonus.

One of the great features I offer to buyers is the Client Gateway. If you aren’t familiar, it is a custom private webpage that lists all of the properties that meet the criteria we decide on. As new listings are entered into the MLS, they show up in the Client Gateway the next morning.

The example shown is a Gateway that I have set up to keep an eye on new listings of homes with 4 or more car garages in Gwinnett County, GA.

A great feature of the Client Gateway is the ability to organize the properties. While reviewing the properties in the Gateway, one can select “Like”, “Possibility” or “Dislike”. Properties that are shuffled

Ahh, relaxed… ok, sorta relaxed

Gabe at the rock compSome people like to watch baseball. Others think that basketball is what makes life worth living. I like things that involve a little more octane. From Thursday (Oct. 4th) through Sunday (Oct. 7th) my 4 wheel drive club ran registration for the Southern Four Wheel Drive Association.

Sunburned, fried, frozen, tired and glad would all be accurate descriptions of the last few days. Temperatures during the day were in the 80s with wonderful (and burning sunshine) and in the 50s at night. We ran registration from 7:00am (I am NOT a morning person) until as late as 11:00pm. It was a great time.

X Prize

So, how many of you have heard of this? The X Prize.

Back when I wrote the A-Z series, it was my back up plan for the letter X. Currently, it doesn’t have much relevance to real estate, but one day it might.

The original X Prize was
