TalkJet is a monthly audio interview series that provides Realtors with the information and strategies that top producing Realtors around the country are using. The concept is simple: We want our referral partners to know how the best of the best are achieving success in TODAY’s market.
This month’s TalkJet is with Erica Chouinard of Denver, Colorado. Erica shares her success story of how she restructured her team to better manage incoming business as well as revamping her marketing techniques which include a focus on conducting Open Houses. These changes to Erica’s business have helped her increase her production from closing on 53 units for $16.5 million in 2010 to 115 units for $35 million in 2011.

The Federal Housing Finance Agency has made a change in order for more people to qualify for the Home Affordable Refinance Program, or HARP. For borrowers with twenty percent equity, Freddie Mac has removed minimum credit score requirements. This may be a small segment of people, it is hopefully the first step in easing refinance requirements in general.
