181.   What's so cool about your office?

So I tell my friends how great it is to have such a wonderful office, but what is a "wonderful" office without your favorite gadget?  Tell your readers about something totally awesome you have in your office.  Le them into your life.

EXAMPLE:  See how the folks at Rain City Guide showed their readers about ther cool gadget.

182.  Mortgage payment going up?  Not sure what to do?

Successful people have financial plans made to help them budget their money.  Should'nt you have a plan for when your Adjustable Rate Mortgage (ARM) begins to climb?  Explain the importance of devising a plan on what  a homeowner should do when they eel they are trapped in their mortgage.

EXAMPLE:  Rhonda Porter wrote a great article on, what is your mortgage exit strategy?  See how she was able to give recommendations on what to do in this scenario.

183.  55+ Need Homes too

So everything you've now covered everything from finding your first home to selling your first home, did you mention those absolutely gorgeous golf club communities or those that are for people 55 and older?  Create a post with the most beautiful Retirement communities in your area and list some of the things to do there.  The most popular gold clubs are normally Retirement communities along with the best tennis courts, pools, spas and much more!

EXAMPLE:  Check out some of the ideas found on Real Estate Undressed

184. So youre bored? Well, You think you can dance?

Anything and everything can be talked about on your Real Estate blog, although we have not made it to the nightlife in your town. Not only young kids and college students like to go out but everyone. Talk about nightclubs, restaurants, local bars. Find out which of these are for young kids or for a more sophisticated adult. Also, cover events that might be going on at these places. Have fun with it, and you never know you may be out this Friday night.

EXAMPLE:  On DiscoverSD, they actually built another blog dedicated to the Nightlife in the area and put a link to it on their existing blog.  Everything you would need in one place!  We all love a one-stop shop.

Summer, Winter, Fall or Spring families are always taking a vacation. What are the hottest spots each season? Help families find something new and exciting to do on their vacation, list attractions in a city and state nearby.  Retirement destinations are very important, there's so many places in the world who would know where to start?

EXAMPLE:  Dennis Pease wrote a good article on how to find the right place.  Take his post and expand on it, add you own ideas. 

186. Is Your Air Conditioner Blowing Money Right out the Window

Well is it? Whether you live in Florida or Michigan there is still a summer and a time to use your air conditioner, for those that do not know you must have your air conditioner serviced just like your vehicle. Update readers on things that we tend to forget about.

187.  Youre gonna get in trouble!

Here in Cape Coral, FL we have such a thing that is called Code Enforcement.  Talk about a pain in the butt Pleasantville kind of life.  We can only water our lawns on certain days of the week, wash your cars on certain days, no boats or RV's should be parked on your lawn, and the list goes on for days.  Then if you get caught doing something wrong, you get a ticket.  These are the types of rules and regulations that homeowners like to be aware of so that they don't have to pay that $35 ticket for watering their lawn at 5:58pm instead of 6pm.

EXAMPLE:  Sage Realtor wrote a post where they just gave the link to the City's site with the information.  To improve on this post take the information and input it directly onto your blog, do not use a link.  Here's my reasoning behind this, readers are 68% more likely to subscribe to your RSS Feed if they read two or more articles on your site.  Need I say much more?

188. What should your child do when moving to a new town?

This is something that can be very depressing for a child, leaving their friends and a place that they know.  Write an article that helps children cope with moving.  A "guide" for children with things to do in the area and how the child can make the best out of the moving situation.

EXAMPLE: Kids Health explains thestep by step process to making this move easier on the child, not only should you make a guide for the parents but make one for the children also.  Including but not limited to some free games they may play on your site, puzzles to do, and much more. 

189. Ever thought if you are talking "geek talk" to a client?

Think about it, you know the entire lingo in Real Estate; a normal person may not know what you are talking about. Make a glossary of frequently asked questions and terms with definitions. This will ultimately be a great tool for potential or new clients. 

190.  New neighbors means Housewarming party!

When moving to a new neighborhood we all would like for our new neighbors to be welcoming.  Create the ultimate housewarming gift guide filled with gift ideas and maybe even some events to have for the neighborhood to get together to met and greet!

EXAMPLE:  Check out how the lovely ladies in La Jolla, California had some great ideas on how to Welcome New Neighbors.
