I remember when I used to go every month to my Realtor Association to pick up my monthly MLS Book ! Back then, every home Seller wanted their home listed in the book and wanted to see how it looked? Even if all the pictures where all black and white! Buyers always asked me, if I would let them take the book home with them. Back then , that was a big No-No ! You where to keep that book in your possesion at all times! Boy, have things changed over the years ! Now everything is searched online and it seems anything you need to research on a home can be found online, if you know what and where to search. 

Which leads me to my next point, I remember when you heard the word foreclosure it was regarding as a home that was in bad condition, stressed property, or they where sometimes even called tear downs!. Now there are thousands of foreclosures around the Country that are new construction, completely updated homes even prime waterfront Property! I just showed one the other day on Sanibel Island ! As a home buyer looking for their best deal, I would think they would search the foreclosure listings first, maybe a better choice would be to find a realtor that knows and understands the foreclosure process. As a Home Seller, I would think you would want your home listed, marketed and displayed near or with the foreclosure or bank owned property? Just because your listed with them or near them dose not mean your going to just get the famous low ball offer. I have seen foreclosure homes get several offers the same day and sell above asking price. So if your in need of more exposure? It's not just who's the largest real estate company in your area, or the company with the most agents, But the Realtor and or Company that really understands times have changed and the Buzz is all about Foreclosures, Bank Short Sales and Bank Owned Property.

If you are thinking about Buying or Selling a home in todays real estate market? Do you need help avoiding foreclosure? Is your home connected to thousands of home buyers looking under todays real estate buzz words? Then please give me a call and let me explain in detail, How we can help you!

Joe Kendall Realtor with Sandals Realty 239-560-0726 Waterfront and Foreclosure Specialist writes, When looking to buy waterfront property here in Cape Coral, Fort Myers Florida and thru-out southwest Florida, Here are my top 5 things to review when considering waterfront Property, besides the condition and style of the home your searching to buy. There are several things you should review when making a decision on a waterfront home. Here are a few good points to consider.

 1. Always do a visual inspection of the seawall. Look for stress cracks, grumbled concrete, rain water should be draining over the seawall edge to the canal not behind the wall where the yard and see wall meet. Repairing or even replacing a seawall can be very costly. If there are signs of damage you may want to have the seawall inspected by a marine contractor? 

 2. If there is a boat lift? Test the lift and review the conditions of the decking and pilings.

 3. We have lots of waterways here in southwest Florida. You need to know what the canal depth is at low tide? How is the navigational route to Open Water? How long of boat ride to the river or open water?

 4. What is the elevation rating on the property in regards to Flood Insurance?  You should always get three quotes on home owners insurance.

 5. If the property dose not have a dock? What are the chances to have one built? What restrictions would there be? Again a Marine Contractor can give you and estimate and let you know the cost and restrictions on building a dock on a location you might have some interest. 

 Buying waterfront property is a very rewarding adventure! You just have to take a few more steps in the process, Do a little more home work and you will be very pleased when it's all said and done!  

  Buying a home on water, you should consider a Realtor that lives, boats and fishes these local waterways!

Joe Kendall Agent Recruiter for Sandals Realty 239-560-0726 writes, Today's real estate market has changed over the last year and now is the time to position yourself for now and in the future! Sandals Realty offers a 100% commission plan,where national franchises charge hundreds of dollars every month for a watered down version! They charge ( National Franchise Fee, Processing Fee, Desk Fee!) We even have Hot Buyer Leads you can purchase!  Would you rather spend money on leads? Or spend money on expenses? Our Commission Plans Allows you so MANY MORE OPTIONS FOR YOUR BUSINESS ! Just ask any one of our 100 plus agents ! We  have monthly professional training clases! Even with national experts in Listing and Selling Real estate!

I suggest you look at your current business plan? Where are your hot leads coming from? if They are not coming directly from your association with your current broker? I would bet they coming from your skills, ability and your sphere of influence! Then why are you continuing to pay high monthly desk fees or giving up 30% to 50% of your commission? Lets talk over coffee and allow me to show you the Sandals difference! We can even offer to a 80% 20 % plan for just 100.00 dollars a year with NO OTHER FEES! You can change to the 100% plan at anytime just pay the difference! No National franchise fees, No national marketing fees, No paying for company advertising, no paying for change in logo's, No cost for phone, fax or copy fees! Just say No!

Call Joe Kendall today 239-560-0726 What do you have to loose besides lowering expenses and making more money at the closing table! Yes we pay all our agents at the closing table too!   

I would like to give a suggestion to all the active rainers out there in looking to increase their Search Engine Rankings. (blogs, web sites, postings on craigslist ect) Creating more key word text into your blog Heading and Body, we all know is a great way to improve your rankings! When you resize your pictures, save them under your key words in which you are trying to target, example would be instead rezizing and saving as 1418 East Street, Tampa Florida, try saving the picture as HOME FOR SALE TAMPA FLORIDA and upload them into your Blog, Your Postings, anywhere you are trying to increase traffic to You.

Try using Google's Free Picture Editing Software it is easy to use, fast and you save your pictures in a Google friendly Program ! The more inbeded key words you can do, Well, lets just say it sure is not going to hurt! here is the link Google Free Picture Software ,
