This past week our company had its annual sales rally, for lack of a better term. It consisted of the requisite motivational speaker who was charged with inspiring us to achieve greatness, greatness which apparently can only be realized after purchasing $600 worth of inspirational tapes, a State of the State address by our CEO, […]
BloodhoundBlog is celebrating its first birthday this coming Friday, so I wanted to take a little time to highlight some of the best work we’ve done over the last twelve months. There is a limit to how much primary reporting a real estate weblog can do. The webloggers are each stuck in one spot, for […]
Well. It is beyond all doubt that readers here are thrilled to the core to cogitate on the implications of real estate licensing laws and their hypothetical repeal. So far the silence has been deafening, with nothing but a host of fallacious arguments, some charming insults and something new under the sun: green-baiting. (It’s like […]
My own personal experience with For-Sale-By-Owner sellers is pretty limited. I’ve never farmed them for listings, so I know nothing of that part of their lives. I’ve called a bunch of them to try to show their homes, but only once have I successfully gotten into one with my buyers. Mostly my experience consists of […]
Tom Royce of The Real Estate Bloggers has always been a good friend to BloodhoundBlog. We talked earlier today about the New York Times article I cited this morning. Out of that conversation came an email I shared with all the BloodhoundBlog contributors. Not to hold out on you, I’ll post a version of it […]
You’re not alone: The media coverage of housing is horrible. When the housing market was booming, we were warned of a “bubble.” When the boom finally slowed, we were warned it would be a disaster. It’s like the housing market is never good. It’s either bad or it soon will be. Even as a strident […]
This started as a reply to Greg’s post on the Tennessee legislature, which apparently insists going backward is the new going forward. But then I had The Conversation, and it’s developed into a post of its own. Involved is someone I respect, a friend, a mentor, perhaps the one person more responsible for getting me […]
This is me in today’s Arizona Republic (permanent link): MLS ‘ad’ crackdown a waste of time, expert says Here’s an interesting conundrum: MLS rules forbid one broker from advertising another’s listings without permission. The question is this: What is advertising? At first blush, you might say that advertising is paid space or time in a […]
So I’ve spent the last hour trying to navigate Word Press — I’m going to bet it’s much easier than I’m making it — have written a terribly serious post on the allegorical link between Nordstrom and real estate, and decided that’s a really inelegant way to introduce myself. Yes, thirteen years with Nordstrom in […]
Arizona, of course. Want proof? Jay Thompson, The Phoenix Real Estate Guy really is the phoenix real estate guy. I’m getting him in sixth place in Google organic results for that keyword, with nowhere to go but up. John L. Wake at Arizona Real Estate Notebook takes us through the five stages of grief for […]
After the fur is done flying over the 60 Minutes piece what are we left with? What has really changed? Has Redfin “revolutionized” real estate? Well if offering rebates on commission is considered revolutionary count me among the witnesses. With 6, soon to be 8 markets, I think there is some time before everyone that’s […]
This is me from last July. Real Estate Wives has a post on Redfin and WalMart today, so I thought I’d bring this back to the top of the queue. Are traditional Realtors being undercut? There’s always room at the top Let’s see… Our customers are leaving us in a steady march. They’ve found an […]

We’re covering the launch of Trulia Voices with great interest on Bloodhound Blog. Greg took the lead this morning with his initial analysis and I lauded Trulia for appearing to be the more Realtor-friendly choice over Zillow.com. I started tinkering in the Trulia Voices section. This is where people can ask questions about real estate […]
Matthew Hardy of Real Estate Success Tools sends along a copy of the NAR’s press release on this Sunday’s 60 Minutes Redfin PR puff piece. We are led by buffoons, avidly drawing attention to the stuff they want everyone to ignore. Two words is too many in reply to this crap: So what? Discount Realtors […]
