Welcome!
I agree with Jay's comments and I thank Marcia for bringing this forward in a concise way. It seems that there's a sense of security in making comments online that folks might not be inclined to make in person - and that has to change. There's a lot of work to be done to educate our associates so that this media can be used correctly. Hank Perry President Empire Realty Associates blog: http://activerain.com/blogs/hankperry
As usual, Bernice's comments are right on the money. Our market areas are micro-markets which vary street by street. The top agents are focusing their activity on the product which can be sold, not that which is oversold and in danger of being short. Also, to Bernice's point, there's nothing better to motivate a 2nd time showing to write an offer than a simultaneous price reduction. Hank Perry President Empire Realty Associates
