Thanks for sharing this insightful article on the benefits of living in a mixed-use development. Savvy buyers have definitely realized this over the past few years, which explains why they increasingly prefer mixed use developments over more traditional housing.

So true! Recently I began interviewing people in my targeted group using open ended questions. I was surprised by a couple of things.

Hey Sibet;

A client actually referred me to an excellent book that uses these exact terms and goes into detail about how marketers have spent millions in the wrong directions promoting product without taking these buying patterns and realities into account.

Thanks

Good Post. My SM activity has been fruitful when I work it, though it so far is static and does not generate new business. Eventually, pehaps.

Comment on Online Real Estate Success Requires Planning And Evaluation by Gahlord Dewald

Thanks for the kind words.

You are absolutely right about the need to take a calm and measured approach. “Shiny Object Syndrome” is apparent in many industries, but my real estate clients certainly seem most susceptible.

Will you be at RETechSouth? If so, let’s be sure to grab coffee.
