Do you know a Denver rookie real estate agent who is floundering? One who has the drive, energy and brainpower to succeed, but doesn't seem to be putting the pieces and parts together in the right order to bring in a paycheck? It's a tough business, ‘specially these days. ‘Specially for rookies. ...

Denver, Colorado isn't perfect. We have a Brown Cloud, it snowed on Mother's Day and I-25 rush hour traffic is the pits. But there's something we have here that is pretty darn special. And no, it's not the Democratic National Convention, coming soon to my fair city. It's July 22nd and I have NO m...

As promised, today we're celebrating the release of SWS II, otherwise known as Sell with Soul: Creating an Extraordinary Career in Real Estate without Losing Your Friends, Your Principles or Your Self-Respect. Go, me (and the rest of the SWS team)! How to partake in the festivities? Oh, it's real...

I just listed the cutest little house ever... in Evergreen, Colorado. It's the kind of place you walk in and say "Oooooh, I want this!" Pottery Barn meets Santa Fe - the owner is an artist and the place just feels good. Warm... cheerful... flooded with light. For those familiar with Evergreen, it...

In 1989, I graduated from college and within a week moved to San Francisco. It didn't rain in the Bay Area for the next f...

And yeah, I've been aware the entire time that sections of my beloved 'hood are called "Highlands" (West Highlands, Highlands Square, East Highlands, Potter Highlands, etc.). Never gave it much thought, though. After all, th...

Frankly, neither do I. I've made the executive decision that the Foreclosure market is not my thing. In the late 90's, I worked with a lot of investors, but that was a different world - one in which the sellers actually seemed to want to sell! I've heard so many horror stories of deals that seeme...

I just returned from a 3-day camping trip to... the middle of Kansas. Yeah, I know. I had my doubts, too. Why Kansas? Well, the LDR DBF was going to be in Kansas City for Rockfest 2008 (no, I wasn't invited and that's 'cause he really likes me), so we figured it made sense to meet halfway between...
