Clay courts
Pinnacle Country Club is home to the only clay courts in Northwest Arkansas. Our maintenance staff takes pride in keeping the courts in perfect playing condition. Playing on clay is much easier on the body than the less forgiving hard courts that most players play on. The clay courts stay cooler in the summer and you can continue to play in a light rain or drizzle.

Tennis Shop
The tennis shop is fully-stocked with racquets, demo racquets, shoes, 24 hour turn-around stringing service, clothing and accessories.

Courtside service
Service is the number one goal at Pinnacle Country Club. What can we get you? The shop staff will be coming around to see if they can get you anything to eat or drink or even just a cup of ice. If you would like an appetizer or entrée from the club we can have it delivered directly to you on the court.

Playing opportunities
Full calendar of competitive USTA leagues, in-house leagues, adult and junior tournaments, socials, ball machine, recreational play, as well as private and semi-private lessons and group drills with USPTA-certified staff for both adults and juniors.

Club privileges
As a Tennis Member, Pinnacle gives you the opportunity to play our first rate golf course up to 6 times per year. All Members are also entitled to take advantage of our heated pool and may dine at the clubhouse Tuesday through Sunday. Babysitting is available for all Members.

That is the question, right?

I have got 3 of these accepted by the lenders and have 2 more that are on their way to acceptance. I enjoy them to a point, though they are a lot of hard work. It is a very viable option for our clients that are facing foreclosure.

I've learned to ask ALOT of questions from the lender on the front end to speed the process up (though non of them seem to be going short), usually when i get an offer in on one I play the waiting game on the lender to get back with me (and my weekly phone calls to see how they are doing).

"I am actually waiting on Met Life home loans to take me off hold so i can get a contract to them!"

Anyway, I've heard several people say they have done short sales in a matter of weeks (it takes me a matter of months), anything you can tell me on how to speed the process up would be very appreciated.

I was given the opportunity today to be on a panel of 2 at the Century 21 convention in San Antonio, TX to speak on the things I am doing in this market that have caused me to be successful in 2008! They said they are going to give me a video of it so i am hoping to post it on here. It was a true honor and humbling experiance when they asked me to join them in this discussion. Thanks Century 21!!

A few pointers I gave out today

1. Dress for success! Look like the professional Realtor you are!

2. Schedual your day! Time is to important in this market to have any of it wasted!

3. Most importantly include 3 hours of prospecting and make 20 contacts a day (I strive to do that each and every day). Here's a great formula - contact 20 people a day 5 days a week and only get 1% return on your work you are having 4 transactions a month (sounds like a winning plan to me!!)

Have a great day/night
