I am really honored that I was asked to speak. To my Lake realtor friends out there, I will attempt to cover: 1. smart phones 2. Social Media & how to use them to sell real estate 3. Websites / blogs for business 4. MLS
5. If we have time left I will try and set up a couple of people on Twitter and FB to get them going. Obviously these are big topics per se, but hopefully I will be able to touch on them enough to give the overview.

Lake Martin waterfront real estate is on a tear.Last month, we saw August’s year to date totals exceed the entire year of 2008.  I speculated in this post that we had a good chance of defeating 2007’s 12 month total of 156 with a strong September.  Sure enough, 24 lakeside homes were ...

I love the green heron ... though the great blue is a more frequent visitor, the green is my favorite to watch ... he looks like he's wearing a little green tuxedo :)

thanks. I was so disappointed when I got back to my computer and realized that a stick was perfectly over his eye. Oh well. About this time last year I spotted a great blue over by the used boat sale place at Kowaliga Marina. I spent 15 minutes cleverly sneaking through the woods for a pic, and when I popped out where he should be, he was gone. I felt pretty dumb. Now I have a zoom lens so that should help I hope.
