!! Facebook !!

Remember the seminars I did on social media for real estate marketing in May when we were all so incredulous about FB growing from 40 million users in October, 2008 to 200 million in May, 2009 --- now FB has 300 million users. Wow. By the way --- visit me on FB any time :-) http://www.facebook.com/pages/Tampa-FL/Enterprise-Title-of-Tampa-Bay-Inc/72315284227

Ordering surveys

We've always (well only for the past 21 years) ordered surveys on behalf of our buyers based on verbal assurances about the certainty of closing from their loan officer - basically whether the buyer would be approved and whether the appraisal would come in at contract price. Now we're getting some criticism about waiting until the appraisal is done - should we have the buyers pay up front for the survey or just quit ordering surveys altogether? Let me know what you think?
