In the last year or so the best value I have found to help me run my real estate office has been the programs offered by Google. I use Google Maps almost everyday to locate properties or to find an address when I am out running around. And, Google Docs is just amazing for saving my documents and having them available for when ever I need them.

I know these programs are not all that new, but I just thought maybe somebody else might like to try them too! Whoops, I almost forgot to mention that they are absolutely free.

Most real estate firms think that a statewide MLS (Multiple Listings Service) is a good idea, but the question remains can or will all the local AOR (Association of Realtors) and the profit earning MLS’s be able work together for the benefit of the public and the real estate agents. Several years ago the CVAR (Central Valley Association of Realtors) had a significate dispute with MetroList MLS when the local AOR attempted take back control of their MLS territory in the Stockton / Tracy / Modesto area.

The California Association of Realtors® appears to be in support of the statewide MLS and cal REDD

 In my opinion real estate agents and brokers should support the CAR and take back their MLS for the good of their clients and their own future as a small business professional. Also, brokers need to take back and fix the realtor.com website.
