Hi @Daniel A Lee Kim,...my posts keep being removed for self promotion... a bit unsure why, but hopefully this posts this time as I'm trying to be helpful!

Agree with your don't over promote suggestion and hate knuckleheads who try to sell services, we all need to make a buck and some services are valuable.

Let Others Promote Your Blog (or website)8.

It is not a site for those who conduct X number of deals per month or a forum to exploit as an advertising medium for self promotion, ther is alot of that.

But if she wanted to dig in her heals and have a couple of investors help her out, at a profit I'm sure, she certainly has that option, IMO.

That is why articles such as the one we are discussing are promoting the fraud issue.

The Georgia Secretary of State, Georgia Real Estate Commission, Licensure and Brokerage, states the following: 520-1-.07, Management Responsibilities of Real Estate Firms(e) In order to provide reasonable guidelines for licensees and their support personnel, but without defining every permitted or prohibited activity, the Commission has identified the following tasks that unlicensed support personnel under the direct supervision of a licensee affiliated with a broker can perform:1. answering the phone and forward calls to a licensee;2. submitting data on listings to a multiple listing service;3. checking on the status of loan commitments after a contract has been negotiated;4. assembling documents for closings;5. securing documents that are public information from the courthouse and other sourcesavailable to the public;6. having keys made for company listings and installing or removing lock boxes from company listings;7. writing advertisements and promotional materials for the approval of the licensee and supervising broker;8. placing advertisements in magazines, newspapers, and other media as directed by the supervising broker;9. receiving, recording, and depositing earnest money, security deposits, and advance rents;10. typing contract forms as directed by the licensee and the supervising broker;11. monitoring personnel files and license reports from the Commission;12. computing commission checks;13. placing signs on property and removing such signs;14. ordering items of routine repair as directed by a licensee;15. acting as courier for such purposes as delivering documents or picking up keys [the licensee remains responsible for assuring delivery of contracts and closing documents as required by O.C.G.A.

In other words things you do to promote your site around the net but not on your site itself.

We should make this a monthly meeting, I'm happy to take the lead in coordinating and promoting these .Continuing our discussion on hard money we had last night I had a great meeting with the principal of a Denver based private equity group this morning.

Guys - This isn't a place to promote your website.
