Aloha and greetings from Kaanapali in Maui! I am on vacation for the next few weeks so this will not be a long post, but I did want to tell you about the Pogo Stylus. If you are an iPhone or iTouch user and have bratwurst sized fingers, as I do, then you are likely…
When I started in real estate in 1986, I wanted to work exclusively with buyers because I thought that was the best place for me to start, and in many ways it was. But, the old timers that were in my office kept saying to me “You have to list to last”. What they meant…
Have you ever had the need to set up a conference call? And have you ever been stymied by how to do it on the office phone or your cell phone? Do you know if your home phone can do conference calling? I may have the answer to these questions for you in today’s post. …
