            <title>The Asian Market in Orlando</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ You could easily drive by West Colonial Drive and never even notice the Asian Market tucked back in a shopping center near Kirkman Road. However, if you do, you will miss one of the most varied food experiences ever. For lunch, they have pulled pork that is cut with a cleaver so sharp, it barely makes a noise as it hits the cutting board. You can get pork and rice stuffed into a take away container for under 6 bucks!The vegetable prices are excellent along with a huge variety of fresh seafood an... ]]> </description>

            <title>Toys for Tots</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ It's coming into the Holiday Season and other than the dip in temperature, we know that it is getting close when the Toys for Tots campaign kicks off. As with many charities, we often sit back and marvel at the things we see on the news and we think to ourselves, I am sure that many people will give this year. Most charities have been hit hard as the economy and jobs have been affected this year. One toy does make a difference. A local news story showed parents sleeping outside to wait in line t... ]]> </description>

There is not enough room to list all of the scenarios but Divorce, Job Transfer, Up or Downsizing are just a few.When I was new in the business, I remember hearing agents... ]]> </description>

            <description> <![CDATA[ I can't help but notice a large sign in front of a Real Estate company down the road that says, &quot;We are Now Recruiting Real Estate Agents.&quot; Each time I pass this sign, I wonder if Realtors want to be recruited? It sounds very militaristic by design. To recruit someone is to target that person for their work ethic, strengths or overall achievements. To be recruited is truly an honor. With a sign saying that we are now recruiting is paramount to Krispy Kreme having that glowing red light... ]]> </description>

            <description> <![CDATA[ Many people are looking to save money. Especially with the way things are today, money is tight...for everyone! One way people look to save money with regards to their homes are saving money by finding their own tenant and managing their own property.We have seen many owners that do this and many never have an issue at all. But there are those cases where owners say, &quot;why didn't I hire a professional?&quot;Some things to think about. Owners also have to follow all of the Fair Housing Laws w... ]]> </description>

            <title>Do Realtor Bonuses Make a Difference?</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ Do Realtor Bonuses and Incentives make a difference when it comes to increased traffic and Home Sales? When agents go for listings, they present themselves first and then what their company offers the seller. If they have done a good job with their pre-listing homework, they look at all of the Actives, Pendings and Solds, not only in the neighborhood, but also in the zip code. We know that Active Listings do not help us when it comes to setting prices or even with the Appraisal but it is interes... ]]> </description>

            <title>Dim Sum Means Happiness on a Plate</title>
            <description> <![CDATA[ The literal definition of Dim Sum is &quot;A bit of heart&quot;. Dim sum is a variety of foods all served in small quantities. The best part is that it is already prepared for you. It rides around on carts just waiting for you to select it and you pay by the plate or dish that you order.If you have never had it, it is a must try. It is usually served from 11-3 at most places. We have tried many around Orlando and have not found any better than Chan's Chinese Restaurant at 1901 East Colonial Driv... ]]> </description>

            <description> <![CDATA[ I have been frustrated lately. Frustrated by agents that have themselves so guarded that they are not even letting their customers in..easily. Recently, agents have been resorting to sending online notices about their listings. This practice grew very large a few years ago and all but dried up until now. These broadcast flyers tout everything from open houses, broker's opens and features about their houses. When trying to reply to some of these listings, I have seen that some agents do not put t... ]]> </description>

This website, first of all, is free. Who doesn't like free?

            <description> <![CDATA[ If your last name is, &quot;Sail&quot;, it wouldn't be too difficult to come up with something catchy for marketing yourself. Hirschhorn creates a little bit tougher scenario! As a new agent, all you have to do is browse through the hundreds of Realtor ads to get some ideas. Coming up with a play on your name or catchy slogan will help to set you apart from the thousands of other agents in your market place.&nbsp; I am sure that there are agents who look online to see what agents are using in ot... ]]> </description>
