2) Are You the Worst Type of Client a Realtor Can Have? – Dave discusses some of the challenges agents face working with clients.
3) How not to price a home – One of my favorite topics, how not to price a home. Just because you want a certain amount does not make the house worth that. I like this topic so much I did a video of it myself yesterday on how to price a short sale.

8) Why Blogging Is Important For Real Estate Agents – If you are an agent reading this you are probably already blogging. If not, you should be and here are some good reasons why.
