Slight Tweak

There are around 1,500 videos here that followed the market down.  It was quite a ride for all of us, including fans from the FHFA to Jim Grant.

But when the market started to turn, the blog had to change with it.

It has not been easy.  I’ve wanted to entertain the long-time readers by exposing more of the constant insanity and shenanigans, mostly to demonstrate the potential pitfalls.

But it can come off as negative and bitter, and though this business is full of both, I’d rather present a friendlier package.

My goal has been to provide relevant information that causes people to say – ‘Hey, Jim could help me buy or sell a house, I’m going to call him’.

I’m not sure this video represents – but hang around a while longer to see if I can pull it off:

JtR on CNBC

I was on CNBC’s Street Signs show today, and Kayla joined me to capture my two lines on video.

Snapshot 1 (2-21-2014 9-32 PM)They didn’t give me the questions in advance, the TV monitor is out of sight due to the 7-second delay, and the local cameraman had mis-wired the earpiece so I was getting my own voice fed back to me a split-second later.

Click HERE to see Kayla’s behind-the-scenes video.

The segment started with Diana Olick repeating the standard buzzwords from Yunnie on why home sales have dipped nationally – here is her video:

I’m listening to her report in one ear, then it’s showtime. I give my meat-and-potatoes advice that is applicable to every market, coast-to-coast, and the next agent starts on national TV with how he makes his sellers price right.

Which would you prefer to hear?

Which one did you hear?

I hate going first!

Here is how it looked live on CNBC:

Plan 4x Full Tour

We saw the grand opening at Davidson’s Arterro, and the video included snippets of all three models – but only showed the kitchen of the Plan 4x.

A reader asked for high definition, and while I knew I had HD cameras, the editing needed to be in hi-def too – so I think I’ve figured it out.

The camera’s auto-focus is a little slow to adjust, but this should be a better-quality video – especially if you go full-screen. Here’s the complete tour of the 4,434 sf Plan 4x model – in high definition:

This video is broken up with photos because Youtube is concerned about copyright infringement, and background music triggers their auto-sensors.
