The “Pick of the Week” is Jonathan Dalton’s article “Gold Jacket? Ummm… maybe” proving he won’t just blindly jump on the BRANDWAGON! Dalton prefers a beagle over a Miami Vice jacket and gives us a not-so-gentle reminder that Realtors should focus on branding themselves first and their giganto broker second. (Also, we are holding our breath until Tobey gets a C21 jacket.)
Many other articles rose to the top, but I’d like to offer the prestigious honorable mention to four others to round out the Top Five:
Denny Oh nearly won the whole dang Carnival, so it’s hard to call his article, “Craigslist Gold Digger… A Good Investment?” winner of an honorable mention, but alas, we could only give one blue ribbon out. Denny’s article is not only funny (the fastest way to my heart) but makes great points- don’t miss this one!
Blackbear Realty brings us this week’s “makes you think” article entitled “What the Cleavers Teach us about Real Estate & Rhetoric” breaking down the impact of the evolving national dialogue about Real Estate.
Joshua Dorkin analyzes “House Flipping Reality TV Shows” and although many of us have written about the HGTV sagas and our feelings on such, Dorkin does an amazing job of bringing a concise PRO/CON argument to the table.
Lastly, the uber famous Silicon Valley Blogger writes a textbook-esque article called “The Causes and Consequences of the Subprime Mortgage Financial Crisis” which is a good read for those new to the topic and leaves us on a positive note.
