O.K., so this is still going on?
All those poor little rich, orphaned, African/Jamaican kids are still desperately seeking naive Americans to help them get their long lost money out of these overseas banks? And for a sweet 20% of the booty, no less?
See below for my latest ActiveRain contact.
I so enjoy the opportunity to expose these grammatically-challenged idiots for the leeches they are.
Puh-leez...

Serving up Green Eggs and Ham to Today's Seller
By Lanette Branch, RE/MAX 1st Advantage Realtor in Bel Air
It's vicious out there.
And surely you've heard,
It's a Buyer's Market
An idea Sellers find absurd.
Homes are sitting for eons
It's all in the News
Today's 3 inch headline?
SELLERS SINGIN' THE BLUES
Information abounds
On how you CAN sell:
Mow the lawn, rake the leaves,
Fix that pesky door bell.
Paint the rooms, clear the clutter,
Doggycare for Scruffy,
Clean the carpets, lose the pictures
Of Mom, Dad, and Muffy.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now along comes a Realtor
With some news of her own.
Giving a new slant
To the home-selling zone
Want to know what to do
To keep your home UNSOLD?
No, yes, you heard right!
The truth needs to be told!
Want to know what to do
To keep your home on the list
Of the hundreds and hundreds
Of homes that get missed?
The never-been-kissed?
Homes of sellers that are pi$$ed?
Indeed, I can tell you how to keep your home ACTIVE
Hire a Realtor who's cheap
Not tech savvy, un-proactive.
Hire a Realtor who refuses
To spend money for marketing or ads.
One who defines the internet
As "just one of those fads".
Hire a Realtor who thinks
A good digital camera's a waste.
One who takes pictures like this

Or like that
With that "thingee" on her waist.
Better yet, why hire a Realtor at all?
Go FSBO, dear seller
Imagine the haul!
Thousands and thousands
Of dollars you'd save.
While you're riding the wave...
And be sure to add on
To the price of your house.
Since you filed divorce papers
Add 20 grand for your spouse.
Since you installed granite counters
You can add 10 grand more.
Never mind the RECENT sales price
Of the house just next door!
The house that's exactly like yours
But now I digress...
Wake up, my dear sellers.
I say all this in jest
So you realize the way
To stand out from the rest.
Hire a Realtor who knows
How to get the job done.
Hire a Realtor who knows
How to move your home, Hon'.
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Home Seller,
If you've been following my posts, you should be up on what's going on in Bel Air, real estate-wise.
And if you haven't been following my posts, well, shame on you!
Don't believe the hype that's so prevalent in "The News". Homes are selling and will continue to sell. Why? Because people need shelter and will continue to need shelter. Been that way since, well, since forever.
That's just a given.
So, to quickly synopsize --
So, if you need to sell your home right now...
Don't sit around griping about the market; you need to call me today so we can get started on a unique marketing plan designed just for your unique home. The old standbys of pricing right , staging right , and marketing right haven't failed me yet*. Why do you think they call 'em the old standbys? Relax, I'm on the job. Moving houses is what I do, people!
Regards,
*P.S. I've got a few more things in my REALTOR bag that'll get your home sold quickly, too.
