I received an email from my LEC 4 clients Matt Barker / Brandon Hedges regarding an interesting inquiry they received at their LEC 4 website http://www.homesofminnesota.com - someone was accusing THEM of copying their design. Huh? Wait a sec - the LEC 4 is a design / architecture belonging to Real Estate Webmasters - they own the copyright and intellectual property rights to it - what is going on here? So they email me the complaint.

Naturally I go through the ROOF! - Turns out this hack company "The Pros Advantage" sold this poor Realtor OUR DESIGN! (Charged him $3500 to rip it off basically) but of course the victim one David Bigham (Minneapolis Minnesota) had no idea that not only had he been swindled - he is now liable for intellectual property theft…

I thought about "polygonadoodleallday" but I thought that might be a little out of left field.

Welcome CIR Realty Agents. As many of you now know, I have been working with Linsey Smith to put together a package for you that combines the Real Estate Webmasters awesome backend / IDX (MLS search) features with an affordable yet search engine friendly front end (website design) that will allow every agent to be able to compete in the web 2.0 landscape.

Enter the CIR Realty websites:

For CIR Realtors ONLY - you can view the new CIR websites at http://cir.rewidx.com. When you get there, you will notice a black bar across the top (this is not part of the site) it has a dropdown to select your CIR template choice and also has a button called "add-ons" and one for "order"

Here's how it works - I suggest you first select a template:

So what do you get? (so far, that is!)

Neighborhood information for all listings!
From any listings details page there will be a neighborhood information tab that when clicked provides detailed statistics and other demographic information about the area directly surrounding the listing in question. The "neighborhood information" tab details community characteristics, population statistics, financial statistics (average household net worth, median income etc), crime rates, weather & climate and much much more!

Not enough? Try the next tab - Nearby Schools!
That's right - we got school data :-) - School name, address, grades, distance to listing and even the school website (if they have one) are all available for your users to research at their… Read Full Post

Hope this works:

Ok guys, here is the first video I shot at the beginning of the contest - bit of a rough start, but note the enthusiasm :)

Next a video from day 2 - we have been coding for 12 hours straight at this point - note the shakes from all the coffee and lack of nutrients. Can't wait to see the last video.

This promotion has expired - thank you to everyone for all of their orders - until next time.

Greetings REW customers (especially those attending the summit this year) - as many of you know, we have completed our CMS 2.5 enhanced lead management system and it is scheduled to be available July 30th, 31st.

I realize however that many folks that are coming to the conference are going to want to spend time enhancing their lead follow up systems during our hands-on networking sessions and seeing as I will be teaching my class using the new 2.5 it just makes sense to allow these people to be able to follow along on the…
