The following was written by Bridget Cella, a NJ Re/Max agent. Bridget and eleven other ActiveRain members were selected recently to be quoted in Realtor Magazine.
Impressive that Realtor Magazine used ActiveRain to obtain sources and great advice for the current market.
I recently received a Facebook message saying:
"Congratulations on being quoted in Realtor Magazine...a simple step often forgotten in the heat of the moment! :)
So, I pondered! I wonder how many other agents who were quoted are found here on Active Rain?
HMM, so I started to look for each and everyone and YEP you guessed it! THEY ARE ALL HERE ON ACTIVE RAIN!
Coincidence?!? I think that's where they found us! Shhh... don't tell evryone else our secret!

Debi: It is cool, but there is nothing to congratulate me for. I am not one of the twelve. I'm just the reblogger!
Sharon, we do appear to be associated with some very fine real estate professionals here in the rain, good company indeed.
Steve: We already knew ActiveRain was the source for real estate info, but it's nice to hear that Real Estate Magazine agrees.
