Scott Godzyk, One of the Manchester NH's area Leading Agents (Godzyk Real Estate Services)
said almost 12 years ago,
"I have now been on Active Rain for 2 years, success is raining down all around me. I have received exposure both locally and nationally. I have been introduced to new buyers, new sellers and new banks. I have at least 6 sales in the last year directly related to my blogging activities. I have also been able to assist countless home owners avoid foreclosure through modifications and short sales. On the national level 2 of my blogs earned me comments in Money magazine.
The most rewarding aspects have been the agents on AR that i have met both locally and across the USA. Active Rain is a family and a network that both assists when i have a question and is there when youneed an opinion. It is part of my Real Estate world that i could not work without now that i found it."

This year I was honored by The National Association of REALTORS® and its Resort and Second-Home Real Estate Committee. I was with the 2012 “Rising Star” award. This award honors REALTOR® members who are making the most of their newly obtained RSPS certification. I believes that it has allowed me to explain to my clients my ability to find them the perfect resort or second-home property. I believe that my active participation in Active Rain has greatly contributed to this sucess."

Cameron Novak, Real Estate Broker since 2008 (The Homefinding Center)
said almost 12 years ago,
"This category should be titled "Active Rain Success STORIES" because this portal is very important to not only the agents involved here, but those who need professional real estate services. I've had several recent short sale clients who didn't think there was anyway to get out of their home/mortgage which was in a negative equity position (meaning the home was worth less than they owed on the loan(s)). After seeing my Corona real estate blog / articles, they contacted me and I had the opportunity to find out their individual situation and share with them what options they have and how I could assist them at no charge to them. Most people don't know we can help them for FREE, as they don't know The Homefinding Center negotiates to have the bank pay all of the fees involved with the short sale transaction. Thank you for the platform ActiveRain."

said almost 12 years ago,
"Wrote a blog on first time home buyers a couple of weeks ago. A new client contacted me through AR email. I got them pre-approved with a lender who did DU on them. We wrote an offer, got it accepted and closed the deal within ten days. Within a month of writing that blog, I made a little over $7k. Not too bad for 20 minutes of writing."

Don and Valerie Keeton, Omaha Real Estate - 402-496-3700 (RE/MAX The Producers)
said almost 12 years ago,
"Ou recent success story as of February 2012... At the advice from Active Rain Training, I began to activiely blog about the real estate market in Omaha. One blog was on Foreclosures, and a lady read the blog because she thought she was facing foreclosure. She called Don to ask about forclosures and what that would do to her credit, and after talking to her Don suggested a Short Sale. I know Short Sales are a pain, but the home sold quickly and closed in 4 months, and the lady was extremely happy.
Within the first month of joining Active Rain, I had a seller with a $300,000. home contact me to list their home, and today I had an old friend find me on Active Rain.
In addition to leads, I have learned several new ideas from their blogs.
I love the opportunity to read different points of views from agents across the country."

"After a few years on ActiveRain I have a great success story! I received an email via ActiveRain about a family who needed to sell a home in my marketplace. I met them at the home we spoke about what our best course of action would be and listed the home. Within 30 days we had a great buyer and the home sold with very little trouble at all. The people that contacted me via ActiveRain knew they were going to use me as their Real Estate Agent right from the start and were really the nicest people you could ever meet."
