Blog Review: The Phoenix Real Estate Guy
It has to be incredibly hard to write on a blog that concerns itself with real estate, regardless of the location. Somehow Jay, The Phoenix Real Estate Guy, manages to pull it off. Despite what you hear about Los Angeles or Hollywood, the Phoenix valley in Arizona is where the real estate activity is the busiest. Just read his article, Metro Phoenix Leads Nation in Retail Construction, if you don't believe me.
As an aside, I plan on doing a sponsored post after this review about my past mortgage. Although it only requires 100 words, it's definitely going to be longer. What does it have to do with this review? Although I live in the Philippines right now, my previous home was in Phoenix! Since I'm going to write about something of my own history, why not get paid for it?
I couldn't find anything wrong with Jay's blog, even though I gave it a strong effort. Real estate blogs can be incredibly boring to anyone outside of the real estate and financing professions, especially if they don't cover the areas the readers live in or are interested in.
If you dig through his past articles, you'll find that Jay has more than real estate up his alley. His article about the poor service at Rustler's Rooste is a good example. I've never eaten there and after reading that article I don't want to. The service ranks down there next to Black Angus for me, which is pretty bad as well.
Anyway, let's cut to the chase. Jay is the "go to" guy when it comes to real estate in the Phoenix valley area and his blog completely reflects that. If you're looking to move there, or away from there, you can drop him a message right there on his blog and I'm sure he'll get back with you quickly.

I have to admit….for those not in real estate, real estate blogs can be extremely boring indeed?! However, I have to agree, I too enjoy his blog. Thanks for sharing!
I have read some of the blog posts at the phoenix real estate guy and I agree that as far as boring subjects like this go , it is a pretty insightful blog to read.

Jay is the best. I'm pretty sure his is one of the first blogs I ever placed into my Google Reader feed, and it's definitely one I check up on each and every day.

Yes, I agree that writing only regarding real estate may be too boring. No wonder Jay also mixes some of his posts with some social news, environments and general tips and knowledge. I will definitely bookmark Jay's blog.
Actually, I think that the stories realtors tell about nutty home buyers and sellers are seriously entertaining and could be a fun blog subject. We have been looking for a house for a while and experienced some really bizarre situations with our agent in this market that could be interesting posts.

You are right when you say that writing a real estate blog is hard work. What can we do to make our blogs more exciting or more readable to the general reader? I try and make mine specific for people interested in my area and I try and infuse my personality into the blog (without being too snarky.) What would bring you back for more?

Cool review, I wasn't a huge fan of his blog.
Thanks for this great post, i know some people become bore who couldn't access the good real estate blogs, i think information is the main thing who garnish the real estate site.
Great post, i believe in that blogging network play main role with buyers relation ship. Most of the people haven't any interest in real estate blogs, because almost all the blogs are same offer & style, i am trying to make attractive blogs for reader.
The ability for buyers to get detailed information on properties their looking to buy has been transformed by the blogosphere, empowerment is always a good thing.
Big fan of the Phoenix Real Estate blog by the way.
real estate has no limit and no end. this is a kind of business which is to the ends of the earth. but i am sure there will be a day when there will be shortage of land and people will search a place of shelter for them.
Nice post…..Gives you a insight about the marketing and how to sell products to our customers.I believe this is the trust that we need to build up with our readers and our customers…when it to marketing and sales , there has to be trust and mutual responsibility.
This blog is quite meaningful for people in the real estate and quite interesting for the people who are not in the same field. It is interesting enough to keep them hooked.
Real estate is certainly fertile ground for topics of conversation. Funny and curious stories occur when you are dealing with large sums of money and life changing decisions. People under stress do amazing things
Its a great blog, where the Phoenix Real Estate Guy goes we follow. He raise some good points.
An interesting review: we are big fans of this blog
