Whoa! Stop the Presses!
Dion Rainey is an agent in my Maryland office. I haven't met him yet, but was alerted to his blog on Active Rain by my Sales Manager a couple of minutes ago. No she's not here either... yet. I was on the phone with her when she told me another agent in the office is writing on Active Rain.
Whoa! Stop the presses! I've been trying to get some of my friends in that office to cross the blogging threshold for quite some time. I had just about given up.

Aloha Craig, Thanks for introducing Dion to the AR community and growing our ranks.
Welcome Dion! You have chosen a great networking group here at AR. I look forward to some future posts. I can use anything you may be able to contribute with regard to "short sales" or "foreclosures"!
Lyn, thanks for the welcome. If you take a look at my photo, you'll notice that I don't have any hair. I contribute that look to short sales! Just kidding, but as they say, there's a little truth to most jokes. I look forward to sharing what I know. The exciting thing about short sales is that the banks have something new to teach us everyday. So, I'm still learning! :-)
Dion-A big Welcome to our Active Rain family, have a great New Year!
