That is right. A Lesson of the Day by Ty BLOG post.
Now you thought you had seen everything....but I bet this will be fun, so you got to read it.
I will share one lesson a day for as long as I can think of them, about things I have learned over the years of being a full time real estate professional, Realtor, builder, landlord, broker, relocation professional, and conspiracy theorist, well maybe not that part. But the idea is to make this interactive to both real estate professionals and buyers and sellers in general. Some of the thing are things my agents, and clients have heard repeatedly, for that I do not apologize. But I would like to know your thoughts as we progress.

1. If you want to get busy, plan on going out of town for a few days or God forbid plan a vacation
2. A house no one wants for 6 months, suddenly everyone will want once it has an accepted contract.
3. A win in a negotiation isn't simply the best price, ever. Real negotiation is an art...
4. Activity in the business, or even around the business, spurs business.
5. I wish I would have done a better job on my database from day one.
6. If you phone rings and it is a California area code, or "Local" don't answer it.
7. There is only so much room on page one of Google, every one of us cannot be there no matter what the sales guy says.
8. If you have to buy leads, they are inherently worse than ones you don't buy, none are good unless you call them.
9. Sometimes people just need you to tell them what to do...
10. 100% of nothing, is still nothing....Even a small profit, is better than a sharp stick in the eye. Same goes for referrals, leads...
12. Even though the dog was nice the last 5 times you showed the house, it still needs to go when I show it.
13. Wear a hard hat, and make sure there is a floor, or stairs before you take that step.
14. People don't want to see your butt when you open a door, let them go first.
