On Wednesday February 13, 2008 Frank McKinney will participate in an interview on Real Estate Radio USA.

Remember, to succeed in real estate it is unwise to approach your craft as specifically a “flipper,” “wholesaler,” “retailer,” “builder,” “renovator,” “contractor,” “short seller,” etc. You must consider yourself a “real estate opportunist,” who is educated and ready to profit in any market, using many applications, under any condition.

McKinney is a two-time internationally known best selling author. He has been the subject of numerous national television, radio and print stories. Mr. McKinney was recently featured on ABC’s 20/20with Martin Bashir, the cover of USA Today, the Oprah Winfrey Show, CBS’ The Early Show, CNN, Discovery Channel, Travel Channel, HDNet, CBN TV, National Public Radio (NPR), in The Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, Fortune, Barrons, Town and Country, Robb Report, The Nightly Business Report (PBS) and in over 250 additional TV and print features. ..and tomorrow, real estate radio USA is honored to have the opportunity to speak with him about his feeling regarding the real estate industry.

Fortune Magazine calls McKinney “the maverick of multi-million dollar spec home builders.”The Wall Street Journal calls McKinney “the Real Estate Rock Czar”

USA Today calls McKinney ” the King of ready-made dream homes.”

Join us at 4PM tomorrow at Real Estate Radio USA.

Sorry everybody…mid way through our radio show today a construction crew working in the street hit a water main which caused us to have a mini-flood and then they cut power to make sure there were no problems.

Sorry for the sudden drop but we’ll be on for sure tomorrow!

For a second there I thought we might have been attacked by an angry Realtor…but it wasn’t the case. (LOL)

Take a look at some interesting stories we have here for you and we’ll see you tomorrow.

 Fort Lauderdale Real Estate Homes

market still makes sense

Welcome to Fort Lauderdale, the Venice of America.

I am happy to call this oceanfront paradise my home. If you don’t already live here you probably wish you did. And now you’re in luck because change is in the wind.

The Fort Lauderdale Real Estate Homes market has shifted from an unbridled seller’s market where home prices went up 20% to 30% each year to one that is healthy and robust, yet more equitable for buyers.

Many of us came here for the natural beauty of the area, clean air and agreeable climate. Our hospitality and wide sandy beaches are inviting.

South Florida Real Estate Homes led the nation in job growth last year.

All that, combined with our many cultural attractions make this a wonderful place to live, work and play.

More people are moving to Florida than to any other state. In 2008, demographers at the University of Florida predict the population of Floirida will continue to grow, just a little more slowly than in the past.

In a recent poll, South Florida Ral Estate Homes and Fort Lauderdale Real Estate Homes  ranked number three among Americans and number two internationally when people were asked “Where do you want to live?”

Something you may want to read up on: Google Coming Down Hard On Real Estate Blogs

Hey everybody, just wanted to apologize for missing Thursday’s show. I had a bout with a nasty cold that felled me yesterday and I just could not make it. Hopefully I have not spread it through the office.

No way I was going to miss two shows so I tried to fight through it today.

Thanks for all the emails but I am fine…nothing a little Nyquil and chicken soup can’t handle.

As you heard, we are introducing a new segment on our blogzine wherein we are going to allow select authors in various markets around the USA to opine as to what is going on in their local markets.

We are going to invite listeners, agents, and investors alike, and maybe a few homeowners, to become guest authors on our blog.

Here is what you will get if you are chosen to be a Guest Author:  

1. A completely SEO customized page within the high-traffic Real Estate Radio USA Blogzine wherein you can write about your business, your market, your deals, your listings…just about anything you want to write about to drive your business.  

2. An RSS Feed wherein those who visit and read your postings can automatically receive daily updates of your articles.   You will need to commit to posting a MINIMUM of 3 articles per week.

This is obviously not something anybody can do. You need to have good writing skills and be prepared to research your market and convey a message that excites your readers.  

There are quite a number of social networks which offer blogging capability but few if any allow the guest author to have the ability to be brand or agent specific and maintain the relationship with the high traffic portal and their own individual blog. Fewer still have the power of a daily radio show with world wide listenership driving visitors to the blogs within the site.

If you are selected as a guest author, your blog will be managed for you so that you can leverage the traffic and visibility derived from promoting your market area to a worldwide audience. We will show you how to market globally with a local focus.

There will be no cost to be a guest author.

If you are an investor or an agent and truly want to be recognized as an expert in your market and would like to capitalize on your expertise becoming a guest author will afford you that opportunity. If you maintain a passion and enthusiasm for your local market, we can provide you a platform that will allow you to generate business from it.

All you have to do is agree to 3-5 posts per week. We’ll do the rest.

Click here if you’d like to apply.

Have a great weekend and we’ll talk to you on Monday and again, thanks for all your support.

Sincerely,

Barry C.
