And Yet Another New NAR Blog: Speaking of Real Estate

OK, so this makes three new NAR blogs in the last month…

This one is “Speaking of Real Estate“.  From the blog:

Welcome to Speaking of Real Estate, your opportunity to talk about real estate with the editors of REALTOR® magazine. Every week, we share stories as they’re developing and give you the opportunity to provide input.Feel free to comment not just on upcoming stories but also on what’s happening in your market that you believe will interest other readers.

By taking an active role in the blog, you’ll help shape the content of REALTOR® magazine and strengthen the magazine’s community of readers.

Again, time to wait and watch…

NAR Blogs Again: Launches Voices of Real Estate Blog

The NAR has launched another blog (following the “YPN Lounge“). This time it’s the “Voices of Real Estate” blog.

From the blog:

Hear directly from your 2008 Leadership Team and share your own positive stories. Every Tuesday, Dick Gaylord will blog about his experiences as NAR President, with supplemental posts from other members of the 2008 Leadership Team every Thursday. Join the blog and tell us how Realtors® in your communities are making a difference! We will post the most compelling responses right here.

Already panned on Bloodhound, I’ll take more of a “wait and see” approach.

AgentGenius has a good list of things the NAR leadership should openly discuss..

My gut tells me they won’t tackle these subjects. I sincerely hope I’m wrong. Time will tell how this thing develops.

Here is what one commenter left on the new blog:

This is fantastic, a blog. It’s what all those hip young kids are doing, so why not the Realtor Leadership?

Guess that makes me a “hip young kid”.
