SPH CATS, our good friend that makes the most out of Realtors placing ads everyday has revamped the section numberings and ad placings to keep in line with readers.
ALSO, at the same time, they’ve made it a point that if you call on a Friday to place ads on Saturday and Sunday, you’d be incurring an additional of $1 per line. WOOT! I suppose that’s a good way to tackle the endless and countless calls that’s coming on a Friday for Saturday and Sunday ads, but its darn expensive.
I’ve got 3 ads on Saturday for 4 liners, which means an additional of $12.00 added to SPH’s account. Cha ching!
Remember, don’t call on Friday to place ads my fellow Realtor friends.
Daniel’s Yahoo D-Agent group is definitely a good place for Realtor’s to share their listings for quick matches. With over 1,000 fellow Realtors, a daily digest of listings would be good for you as an agent to match your listing for your clients.
Something caught my eye, and I suppose things like this happens from time to time when you deal with rotten agent colleagues.
Dear Friends,
just encountered one unethical agent.
His name is ******. He called asking for info
for one of my units and require more information.
After giving him all the information i have, he
requested for me to send him the floorplan.
I emailed him some pictures of my unit but unfortunately,
i do not have the floor plan so i explained to him nicely.
He msg me at least 3 times asking me for the floorplan
which i politely explained that i do not have, so does
the owner.
Finally he msg me:” forget it….”
And when i tried explaining further and offering to help,
he replied :” stop sms..”
I ran a search on his number and realised he is an agent.
His telephone no: ********** Please save this to prevent people like
this to take advantage.
I don’t see any reasons why this agent would want to sabotage another person, but things like that happen from time to time.
Shame on you. Not as if Petric owes you a living. Maybe we should have a blacklist for agents who gives other fellow agents trouble and just don’t deal or co-broke with them.
If you’re looking for extra spare batteries for your PDA phones/ phones/ SLR cameras on websites and is thinking to save up courier fees from overseas, look no further.
Singapore’s very own Worcell is your solution to spare or dying batteries, at least it saved me almost close to 100 bucks for my high capacity 3,000 mAh battery (which is made in Korea apparently as stated on Worcell’s website). They even offered me a free desktop USB charger.
Well Wong was a kind person. I’ve visited their warehouse at Admiralty Street to collect two cells for my Dopod 838 Pro and he waited for me even when it’s past lunch time. I’m a weird person, they offer free delivery, but I’m that sort that likes to have my new toy as soon as I can.
The cells work brilliantly, better than the original (discounting that the original has been working really hard for 1 and a half year). My 3,000 mAh battery can last me for 2.5 days straight. I’m a heavy user.
ps. Good customer service. He even sent me an extra cover for the 3,000mAh through post after I’ve text him about something that popped out. Worcell, you’ve gotten a new fan :)
Have you got a url you’ve always wanted to share on the papers when you advertise a particular property and want to show a online flyer with photos on your particular marketed property? Always face this problem when your intended URL is too long to be published?
FEAR NOT.
Introducing the brand new su.sg (shorturl.sg), a new URL trimmer works similarly to tinyurl.com which I’ve fixed up for everyone to use. How it really works.
Say I’m marketing this particular Sunhaven condominium unit in Upper Changi Road and I’d like people to know about it. Instead of advertising a 4 liner on District 15/16 Apartments for Sale as normally:
Sunhaven 3+1. Freehold. 1251 sqft. Beautiful poolview. Full Facilities, Well maintained. Call 91253045 Benson
To fellow Realtors, have you met up with a situation where you’d really like to check on caveat prices or get a document from your Agency’s website really badly and have to travel all the way back to the office or home to get things done when you can close your deal in an instance if you have a laptop and a working internet connection in hand?
Let me paint the picture “Oh crap, I have to logon to e-Office to check on the recent transacted price. . Sigh wish I can logon to AgenTools now to arrange for viewings for my client in my car” I bet they’re familiar.
Sure you could just go to any Starbucks or Macdonalds or even anywhere near central to get a WIFI connection provided by Wireless@SG, but that means you have to travel to the particular place and it doesn’t mean that your connection would still be reliable. I had this problem in Starbucks recently even when Wireless@SG has two access points, connection is totally intermittent.
INTRODUCING YOUR UNLIMITED MOBILE CONNECTION FRIENDS (IN SINGAPORE ONLY OF COURSE)
Try using the solutions in other countries and pay for roaming charges, be warned. I have been a subscriber of these 3G sim card solutions ever since a year ago when M1 just introduced a flat fee plan for an unlimited plan (data cap, but anything more than 1 GB is more than enough if you don’t download stuffs with it).
Cost (at the moment) – $72.76 (50% off for Starhub customers) per month for 7.2MBPS
ps. Apparently the most expensive one in town if you are not an existing Starhub customer to enjoy the 50% off (even with the 50% thrown in), but of course, good speed.
With these solutions, you can always use your laptop on the go in any parts of Singapore and have your work done. If you think carrying your laptop is a hassle, a dual sim card PDA phone could use your plan too. Just simply put this particular 3G sim card to the DATA slot of your dualsim phone to enjoy a reliable connection.
Singtel’s Broadband on Mobile. Probably because its basestations have better coverage in Singapore than the two other Telecommunication provider. I was even trying this connection on my friend’s cabin cruiser in Serimbun on the sea trying to email my client. Connection is smooth and flawless for even a 512KBPS connection.
M1 was ok, but the connection was somewhat weak/ and sometimes no connection at some parts of Singapore, namely the West area and especially Sentosa.
No chance to try Starhub’s. Too hefty for a non-Starhub customer to carry IMO. But I don’t really need a 7.2MBPS solution for my job. No multimedia intensive presentation required.
It seems that Singtel and M1 are having a price war on their mobile internet solutions. You can take the advantage now to sign up for any of their plans now, whoever is giving a better offer.
ps. Singtel’s naming convention of their mobile internet service would score much better in SEO on the internet. Smart.
