Hey all, here are a couple ideas for topics you can post about.
1. Friday, the 25th of July, had 2 banks taken over by the FDIC. One was First National Bank of Nevada and the other was First Heritage N.A. in Newport Beach. If you work in or near the area you can talk about it as a news alert or as a way to explain to people what is going on and how it relates to real estate and them.
2. Renting vs. Buying. You can write a topic about the pros and cons (where ever you stand). Explain how it would or wouldn’t benefit them to rent right now.
3. Foreclosures and REOs. You can write an article on what they are, why they are here, the process, etc. You can go on many topics about these. Anywhere from “understanding REO’s” to “how to find REO’s”.
Remember posts don’t have to be pages long. What is important is that you get your point across and make sense.
Have a good one.

Here’s another thing can use, provide your real estate clients, or blog about.
Bankrate.com has it so that you can find your bank and see how they rate on a scale of 1 (the best) to 5 (the worst).
With all the bank news going on in the media this can be useful for some people. Enjoy! http://www.bankrate.com/brm/safesound/ss_home.asp

Hey all, I had originally been thinking about making a “Topic Tuesday” post where every so often I’ll post ideas for you to blog about, but as you can see, I missed Tuesday.
So for now, if you’re drawing a blank here are some topic ideas to blog about.
- The new housing bill that may be passed by Congress. You can briefly write what it’s about and how it affects a homeowner.
- The state of real estate. You can write where real estate in your particular area stands. Sales up/down? Good/bad?
- A Community Event. Is there anything coming up in the community you work in? If so what? Make an announcement about it.
- A Common question. Have you been asked by several buyers or sellers the same question, if so write about it.
Those are a couple of things to get your mind going. Good luck and remember, if you’re going to sell yourself do it in a very subtle manner.
Have a good one!
