How to Have an Office Romance-Seven Steps for Dating Smart at Work
Caramel creams, raspberry hearts, hazelnut truffles – the tastes of romance abound! As we approach the depths of the winter season, pink and red boxes of chocolates pack the shelves of drugstores and specialty stores throughout the country. And if you have a steady love interest, you may already know if you are giving or receiving one of these calorie-packed, new-year’s-resolution-breaking boxes of goodness. On the other hand, if you don’t have a special someone in your life, you may be feeling the urge to find him or her as soon as possible.Now for the million-dollar question: Where to

Individual Health Insurance: Your Rights and Privileges

Our office has been flooded for the last few months with emails & calls about the new Foreclosure Mastery™ program. We must have struck a nerve with quite a few Agents who are looking for a new way to generate business in markets across North America. The buzz surrounding this topic has been great and actually more than I expected. One thing we couldn't predict was exactly how much of a lack of information there was for Agents on Foreclosures.

So, if you'll share a few minutes of your time with me today, I promise to add a little insight to your life on Foreclosures and how they can be a source of new leads for sellers that ultimately end as listings. Before I start, and end up generating even more emails and calls, please know that by no means is this short little email's intent to answer everything about Foreclosures. I will simply answer the most frequently asked questions that we've fielded over the last few months.

There are basically only three types of Foreclosures:
1) Pre-foreclosure
2) Foreclosure
3) Post-foreclosure (REO).

Pre-foreclosure

Pre-foreclosure describes property in a state of default prior to the Foreclosure Auction. A property enters the Pre-foreclosure phase once the lender posts a notice of public record that the property owner is behind, and they intend to exercise their right to Foreclose the property. The amount of time before auction varies from state-to-state but averages between 3 - 6 months.

So, a Pre-foreclosure is a property where the owner is behind on payments (usually at least a couple of payments), and the bank has recorded official notice to the public that they will take back the property if the owner does not arrange for an alternative plan.

As you may wisely project, a homeowner in Pre-foreclosure can be a fairly motivated seller and have a strong desire to sell once they understand (or decide) that selling is their best way out of trouble. An Agent skilled (or trained) in dealing with these types of sellers can get the property listed and sold before the auction date.

Pre-foreclosures can be an excellent source of about 100-600 new leads per 100,000 households.

You Need a Business Plan for Internet Success
Get rich quick on the internet. How many times do you see that phrase or something like it as you surf the web? There are so many schemes out there to accomplish that goal. But how many people actually get to that dream?Very few. And why is that? The biggest mistake that most beginning internet marketers make is not going into their project with a "business mindset". They're looking at an internet business as a "get rich" scheme. They doom their success from the get go.To start an internet business you first need a plan.

A Look at Brochure Printing Services
A brochure can be a wonderful promotional tool for a wide range of professionals, but getting them set up can be daunting. There are many brochure-printing services available that cater to both the amateur and professional. You can find them in a number of ways, including the phone book, the Internet, graphic design and advertising journals, or word of mouth.Some companies will provide typesetting, design, color separations (four-color process), color proofing and proofreading service, while other companies just provide the most basic color printing, folding and shipping.There a

Can You Market Both A Product And A Service With The Same Marketing Plan
If you offer both products and services, do you need to have separate marketing plans for each one?This is a very valid question, and one that could have several answers.Adding Products To Your Business Is A Smart MoveFirst let me say this ... I recommend that all service providers create or acquire products they can sell in addition to their services. By doing so, you take yourself out of the "trading hours for dollars" trap that many solo-professionals find themselves in.Once you have that product, we must address the question of whether or not you need two market

Pre-foreclosures can be an excellent source of about 100-600 new leads per 100,000 households.

Foreclosure

You cannot do much with a home in this state. Typically, depending on the area and lender, 24 - 48 hours before the auction is too late. At that time, the home goes to the highest bidder at an auction, which is typically held at the county courthouse steps (location may vary depending on the area).

I won't go into too much detail now, but the Foreclosure tactics at the auction can be very fruitful for an Agent. As you can imagine, there are a plethora of Investors & Bank contacts that a wise Agent can take advantage of. All of which could lead to new business.

Although for the most part, once the home goes to auction, it's not a good source of seller leads... that is unless you can make contact with a bank or investor representative that may want to list with you once they take possession of the home.

Post-foreclosure

A home in this phase is typically what Agents think of when they hear a property labeled as a Foreclosure. The bank has taken back the property from the homeowner and now refers to the home as Real Estate Owned (REO for short).

Many Agents think these are a lost cause because there is often a local Agent who has positioned themselves to get the lion's-share of the REOs in any given area. This may or may not be true, and an Agent can re-position themselves so they can get a chance at these properties.

Another type of Post-foreclosure is the property purchased by an Investor. Often times these Investors have established relationships with Agents in a market. However, a wise Agent can still re-position themselves so they get a shot at them.

Conclusion

So, for the most part, the best source of new leads from Foreclosures can be found in Pre-foreclosures. This new source of business could mean another 100 - 600 new, very motivated (seller) leads that are desperate for your professional help. And that's only for a market of 100
