I also think it's crazy in this day an age for a consumer not to pay 12.95 a month to have ID theft monitoring set up over at equifax, or similar trusted provider.

Monitor, monitor, monitor.

If you want to monitor the exact cost, you can sub-meter the circuit.One poster mentioned used equipment...Unless you are personally able to fully diagnose and make repairs, or if the building is really low end, NEVER buy a used appliance (two or three service calls and you've spent the cost of new, which will last at least seven years).

The Effective Management Fee is the actual percentage you pay of your rental income each month to the management company once you factor in all the reoccurring fees you are charged for the year.

You actually control a hideous amount of power if you can monitor nationwide home buying/selling in real time.

A recent headline in my hometown paper points to more gloom-and-doom for Hamilton County Ohio while the Christian Science Monitor reports on conditions on the East Coast.What is going on?

i think using your name as a .com is a great way to promote yourself in this business. it is cost effective and looks powerful on a business card; and as long as you have "Realtor®" or another indication of your occupation on the card clients will know what your site is about.most agents in my office have a registered domain under their name and then redirect the domain to their page on our site. as the webmaster, this is also a great way to monitor who is bringing users to our site as their names show up in the analytics. i suggest registering a handful of domains, market each of them differently then monitor the results, change strategies, rinse and repeat.Sincerely,Rising Realtyps.

To many people the idea of being constantly watched and monitored may not seem like anything new.

(pay someone to fix it one time without it reoccuring)

Also remember to monitor your credit.
