1) Mortgage rates are gonna rise – We have been hearing it for a while now, it is coming. One thing I think everyone agrees on, they are not going to be falling by any measurable degree.
2) Virtual REBarCamp is today – I am not going to be around much today unfortunately, or this is where I would be at!
3) Listings on Facebook – I am not really a fan of listings on Facebook, but if you want them on a fan page I get it. If you do decide you want them, this is a cool app! If you are really trying to do real estate on Facebook and you have not contacted Mike Mueller yet, what are you waiting for?
4) Monday morning planning session! – Tom always has great ideas on planning, which I still need a lot of help with. Love the IF N.I.S.I.D.E. concept. If you live in the Phoenix area Tom Ferry is coming to Scottsdale on December 8th for a free seminar.
5) Part time Realtors make $8,600 per year!!! – Brad makes the case for why you should hire a full-time agent in this short video.
6) The purchase agreement is more than a letter of intent (or should be) – Kris, this is something I have been thinking about addressing lately, but no way could I have done it as well as you have.
7) Buyer Reps: Helping Everyone Win in a Short Sale – This post goes great with number 6.
8 ) Three reasons Dave Ramsey got it right – A follow up to the Dave Ramsey segment on why you should use a real estate agent to sell your house.
9) Change will make you an enemy of the status quo – Change anyway – Matt does a good piece here on how standing out in the minority is a good thing and we should always be questioning our industry, but remember, we are part of that industry.
10) Details of the new $6500 tax credit for existing homeowners – Video on the extension and details on the $6500 tax credit.

I agree with Matt, thanks for recapping these – I’ve given up my Google Reader so this is a good way to catch the highlights.
