Ben, I appreciate you sharing the deal with numbers and in detail. It is very useful, keep on doing it. Great work. Todor

Fantastic. Good for you Ben.

I just finished replacing the carpet in one of my units with laminate flooring and it looks fantastic. Best part is it only took me about 2 hours to do it. And that includes travel time. So here is how I managed to pull it off. Last week I decided that the handyman that I was using just...

The two systems do not compare. One is designed around education, the other around selling. I went to one of his presentations in Toronto few years ago and I have to tell you: It was hard walking away form the opportunity to own a lot in Costa Rica right next to his lot. :) The pictures were...

Good for you! Totally agree that manging it, in all aspects, will be the key going forward. Don't forget to celebrate at every step :)

Why Real Estate is so POWERFUL ` Attempt at explaining it If I were a mathematician, I could probably explain the following story with something like this: But I am NOT a mathematician! One thing I know is that Time+Real Estate = Better Future I AM better with pictures, so...

Jim, I was just trying to illustrate what I meant for changing fonts in the body of the ad. Not advocating for people to start "committing font abuse" :) Since posting the original message I learned that this function was also available in IE. I had no idea. I've used Google Chrome for the past...

I don't think you can modify the headline.

Joe, you are absolutely right. Fact is I don't use IE, but only Chrome and it is not available in Chrome. So, yes, IE8 has it as well.

This is a great tip I got from my buddy Ed Renkema, Ontario REIN memeber and computer wiz in denial :). If you want to have the option to change fonts and colors in your Kijiji ads. Use FireFox browser. I've been using Chrome and was wondering how other people do it, short from using HTML...

It has improved A LOT in my experience in the last 24 hours. Thanks, Todor

Hi Desi, You've received excellent advice so far from all previous posts. As Thomas said "it is a LONG path" and you are already on it. With time you will get your current situation in order and will make the next step. Don't feel that you are missing out on something. You WILL have your...

Totally agree with David and Jim, I also like #1 for all the reasons listed. Essentially it is the same theme with slightly different styling and color scheme. It is OK to use the same theme for two different websites. the header image and content will make them different. And you will be...

QUOTE (jarrettvaughan @ Nov 8 2010, 08:08 PM) That is all great advice. Thank you for the pointers. I have a Nikon D70S, now i just need to get a wide angle lens. I also have a Nikon D70S. I find that it is a great camera, but not easy to make great photos, unless you know what you are doing...

QUOTE (BenSanderson @ Nov 8 2010, 06:04 AM) Hi Jarrett, Here is the ultimate key to better real estate photography - a good wide angle lens! When I first started advertising my first Rent To Own property, I was using a standard digital point and shoot. Outside shots were fine, but most of the...

QUOTE (DavidSandbrand @ Nov 4 2010, 11:09 AM) Hi all, I`ll pitch in here with my thoughts and comments since I am actively in both the mentoring and masters program, and my sole income is from real estate investing. I attended Ron`s event in Edmonton last year, and like the bulk of people that...

Thanks David and Jim for the great information. I agree with both of your observations and recommendations, tweaks of the system. I have limited experience with the Yellow letters - 1000 sent, but it went exactly as you described it. David, you mentioned that you missed on a lot of potential...

David, Great information. Thank you for sharing. Do you use PatLive or do you you use an answering machine/service to pick up the calls? Thanks, Todor
