ActiveRain Success Stories

"Active Rain is a great place to be. Since I have been on Active Rain I have received more than ten (10) referrals from fellow real estate agents. These agents found and pursued me through Active Rain. I would like to express my gratitude to all those who considered me for their referrals.

"Having only posted two outside blogs, I received a call from a buyer requesting my assistance. In just two short months I was able to procure a buyer and close on a property immediately. Active Rain works!! My meager two month investment netted a huge return, now that's an excellent ROI!!!"

"Great information and networking ideas! Love SEO group and look forward to exchange referrals!"

"After blogging repeatedly about the lakefront market on Lake Hopatcong, I received an email through ActiveRain from a homeowner who was trying to sell his lakefront property. It turned out that he was going through a nightmare experience with another Broker, with the property being listed as Under Contract, but the buyer couldn't qualify for the mortgage, and the Agent wouldn't actively market the home (the buyer came through the listing agent). We spoke several times and when the listing expired, the homeowners interviewed several agents but hired me because they felt I knew the inventory and area the best. Two weeks later, I secured my own buyer for the home with a cash offer and closed the transaction in 44 days. The total commission check was for $74,250, with my commission payout being $43,877!"

"activerain has increased my web presence."

"Just one quick story from ActiveRain... We were contacted by an agent in FL with a relative in the area needing to do a Short-sale. We were in contact with the local seller and listed the house. They had an auction in which we offered the house... no luck. An aggressive approach was taken in marketing the property and I am happy to say, in 109 days time the house was listed, marketed, and closed. A bank approved Short-sale with a quick turnaround time made possible through ActiveRain networking!"

"ActiveRain has been a great resource for me since I joined in December 2009. I've met some other great Realtors on ActiveRain that I stay in touch with on a regular basis. ActiveRain has helped me to get several of my blog postings on page one of Google. My Web site is also coming up on Google page one results for several of my targeted search terms. I attribute at least a part of this to my ActiveRain blog posts with the links to my Web site. Thank you ActiveRain! See you on March 9th in Denver."
