All Neighbors in Bristow's Braemar
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.

I was thinking this really might be the steal I tell my client's don't exist. Closer examination revealed the reason for the low ball list price. The bitter home owner who had gone to foreclosure had forcibly removed the locking mechanisms from all the windows on the main level. They had also removed the door handle and lock from the sliding glass door to the deck. In the Master Bathroom, they had methodically, presumably with a screwdriver, nicked and nicked at the drywall. There were missing electrical switches. One light switch we turned on, we couldn't turn off.

Well, so far, so good. It's only January 7th so anything can happen. Some of the largest storms we've experienced have been in February or March. We'll keep our hopes up that there are no major storms. I know the HOA's would be super happy about that. Snow removal can be a big expense when you have a rough winter.
