ActiveRain Success Stories

Kristine Allcroft, PuroClean Emergency Recovery Services (PuroClean Emergency Recovery Services)
said over 13 years ago,
"Recently Pat Philipps of Weichert Realtors in Moorestown hired us to help her move a home in Riverton, NJ. Upon site visit the area of concern was what appeared to be mold staining in the attic. The home was scheduled for closing in only five days. Harry and the team at PuroClean Emergency Recovery Services was able to refer the homeowner for mold testing. The testing revealed no active mold growth in the attic. This referral saved the home owners several thousand dollars and the assessment helped them to close on time!"

Peggy Chirico, REALTORĀ® 860-748-8900, Hartford & Tolland County Real Estate (Prudential CT Realty)
said over 13 years ago,
"I came to Active Rain at a very low point in my real estate career. The market was down, people were down, and I was becoming very affected by the negativity and wondered how long I could continue in this downward spiral. Then I discovered this community of talented professionals. I lurked for a while, read blog after blog, made comments, researched the archives, and found a wealth of knowledge, inspiration, and comradery that had been missing in my life. I became a Rainmaker, started my own blog, and learned so much in the process. Has Active Rain helped my business? Absolutely! While my business doesn't come directly from Active Rain (yet), it has thrived because AR has enabled me to stay positive, try new prospecting approaches to grow my business, and serve all my clients at the highest level. And as we all know, success breeds success!"

Christa LaFarlette (la-far-let) (Your Choice Real Estate)
said over 13 years ago,
"What is an ActiveRain Success Story. Is it the number of leads? The number of points? For myself success is learning all the technology lessons from the professionals at ActiveRain. Their patience, understanding, um--patience, and ability to put the complex into the simple (I am sure it was just for me!). However, I appreciate most that the lesson I have learned are translating into global internet success! Yes!"

"I wrote a contract for a listing by Rebecca Gaujot, an agent in my office and an AR member. She presented the offer to the sellers and the contract was accepted. We closed in one week. It was the first transaction that we worked on together. Rebecca is so knowledgeable and has really helped me with my AR blogging. Like she says, "I need to just log on everyday and blog about something.""

said over 13 years ago,
"My brother has a vacation home for sale in Red Lodge, Montana, I noticed that although his Realtor had his house listed on Realtor.com the listing did not really show up in Google. In fact I coudn't find his house listed any where online, even under his address. I decided to write my first blog post about his house. The results were really amazing. His Internet exposure is through the roof. In fact one category on Google had 29,400,000 search results. his house is now #3 on Google in that search result."

Terry & Bonnie Westbrook, Westbrook Realty - Grand Rapids Forest Hills MI Re (Westbrook Realty Broker-Owner)
said over 13 years ago,
"Active Rain has made me the "contact" in my local neighborhoods. I have received many calls where people tell me I am the only source that comes up when they are searching for local housing information on the internet. I recently posted a blog about some of the homes in our local area that are great BUYS based on square footage. I received a call within days of posting the blog from a buyer that wanted me to show them a home that was listed. We wrote an offer after showing it, it was accepted, and we are anticipating closing our first sale directly from AR soon. Thanks to the Active Rain platform, it has successfully gotten buyers' attention for me."

Robert Mark (Net Lawman ltd Australia)
said over 13 years ago,
"Help yourself to save A$000s. Many people visit this website but do not quite have the courage to "do it yourself". Net Lawman document templates are really easy to use. You can fill in your own data or make major changes. If you can run a business, you can work on a Net Lawman document template. Do not wait for the big recovery. You may not notice it! Act now to make your tomorrow - today. Buy Net Lawman documents and make things happen."

Janis Gaines, Home Stager Eugene OR - The Notably Well-Dressed H (Staging Sells Eugene Homes)
said over 13 years ago,
"I have had a profile on ActiveRain since January of 2008. It has brought me at least one project from clients living in California who had a home in Eugene Oregon to sell as part of an estate. They were concerned about the caliber of Home Staging companies in a small city like Eugene. However, when they found me, they were impressed by my website and ActiveRain profile, which reflected my experience, the quality of my work, and my professional standing in the Home Staging industry.
Another significant impact to my business has been the improved quality of my real estate staging photos. I regularly visit the AR profiles of several top stagers represented here. Their style of staging and the caliber of their photos has been an inspiration. Because of their work, I have set a goal to improve both my Staging and the photos that reflect the caliber of my Staging on an ongoing basis."
