November 30 2013
It's December. While we're still wondering how exactly that happened, let's take a moment to reflect on the month that just ended.
So what was on the mind of real estate professionals in November? Craigslist (or "Hurricane Craig" as one of our contributors called it) definitely caught the attention of our readers. A rule change at the classified ads website has forced agents to re-think their posting strategy (see article #2 below).
Agents and brokers are also beginning to think about the year ahead, judging by our round-up of November's most popular articles. For more on what your peers are reading, see our list below.
