Just got back from National Assoc of Realtors Convention

We just got back from the National Association of Realtors Convention in Lost Wages (oops, I meant Las Vegas!)

It was a great convention but to tell you the truth I like the convention in a different city like San Francisco. There were 3 other conventions, the political debate was there, and there were just too many people around all the time. Everywhere you went you bumped into somebody and it was just not fun.

The classes were great and I learned a lot of new ways to use my camera in marketing and sat in on a MLS round table and talked to agents around the country to see how their market was and it made me very thankful that our market is not near as bad as some of those.

Short sales were the name of the game in Florida and some in Nevada and good old El Paso, Tx real estate looked even better .

Sales are definitely picking up-had 2 offers on my listings since I got back on Monday and 2 closing this week so that is wonderful.

The walking for the half marathon is coming along great and we walked almost everyday in Las Vegas. The weather was sunny and warm and it was so good to get outdoors.

We walked almost 3 miles every day and this Sunday it will back to 7 miles and then we will start building up to more miles each Sunday.
