Top Neighbors: The magic behind the mirrors
You will never have to pay to be listed as a top neighbor. Period. That important detail clarified, let's discuss how we arrive at two "top neighbors" for a given region:
Localism is a bustling collection of hyper-local communities, and the top neighbors should reflect those members who are most active. When ranking users in a given region, several factors are considered. To get your foot in the proverbial door, you need to have posted at least one "Localism" article or photo for the region.
The very best way to quickly rise to #1 is to post high-quality local content. Keeping a steady strem of incoming posts and photos will massively tilt the scales in your favor.
What doesn't count toward the top neighbor ranking? ActiveRain points and community sponsorships. The top neighbor spots will always go to the most active members in a region. We want to create a level playing field that encourages the growth of communities — talent and dedication are required to win the day.
The Anne Arundel County real estate market is still seeing a welcome increase in sales and settlements over the past weeks, the sales are edging higher. Interest rates are still low. The home sales still aren't as swift as we would like to see, however, they are remaining fairly stable. The number of new listings has declined steadily over the past few weeks and we are seeing a slight increase in the number of homes going under contract and settling. Home prices are also remaining fairly stable as we move into the Thanksgiving Season. Now that fall is here to stay we'll see another spurt in activity before the winter hibernation. I'm surprised I'm not seeing more new home buyers making the decision to buy with so many great deals available. Now with the economic stimulus changes (up to $8000 in tax credits) and low interest rates it will be interesting to see how this all changes. Overall, there has never been a better time to buy, than right now but buyers need to hurry because the tax credit times are coming to an end soon.
