Upgraded!

Ooooo, very good point by a public realtions reader concerning this week’s Bulletin From the Bubble.

I’m in the public relations field and I travel a great deal so I appreciate your column this week.

You never want the client to wonder why they’re paying for first class seating, especially since they’re not.

This property at the north east corner of Hillcrest and Lovers still says new listing. I understand it’s been on the market, this time, for 74 days. But I hear Doris Jacobs, the current agent, also had it listed for 119 days from Oct. 2007 to Feb. 2008 and put it back on the market in April.

New listing? Let’s switch the sign up a bit, maybe something like great schools or near a park. Just a thought…
