Keller Williams Rocks

Today we at Keller Williams Realty had our annual kick-off meeting. It was a recap of last year, recognition of the company and agents successes and goals for next year. Well I am delighted to learn that we are in third standing in all of Savannah Area Board of Realtors. Out of the the top ten companies we are the only company with an increase in sales (17%) this year. All the other companies sales have dropped.The company is rocking and I am delighted to be a part of it.
While the year seemed slow to me, I ranked fifth in the company for individual agents productivity.
I left this jam-up meeting and had a day similiar to one I might have had in 2005. The phone did not stop ringing all day. There were four buyer calls from out of town, I made many appointments to show my listings and there is much talk from agents that they are bringing me offers. If this continues 2008 is going to be a great year.

Recap of mortgage highs and low this week

My friend Mike Caputo (who is the best lender in town) over at Countrywide sent me this piece below, I thought I'd like to share it.

Returning from a long weekend, investors were greeted on Tuesday with the surprising news that the Fed had lowered the Fed Funds rate by a huge threequarters of a point. What followed was two days of extreme swings infinancial markets as investors tried to figure out how to interpret theFed's move. Fed Chief Bernanke cited increased risks of slower economicgrowth as the reason for the rate cut. Fearing a recession, investors soldstocks and bought bonds on Tuesday, temporarily pushing mortgage rates tothe lowest levels since the summer of 2003. The trend looked to continue onWednesday, but sentiment reversed midday. The Dow Jones stock index rosefrom a 300 point loss to a 300 point gain, while mortgage rates unwound allof Tuesday's declines. Mortgage rates ended the volatile week a littlehigher.
