They Like Us! They Really, Really Like Us!

WHAT THEY'RE SAYING ABOUT OUR MARKET REPORTS

"The best in the country in showing statistics."

– Lawrence Yun, Chief Economist, National Association of REALTORS®

"I love what they're doing. The MLS-based market metrics products currently on the market do a poor job visualizing data. These things need to be understood at a glance. 10K moves in that direction."

– Brian Boero, 1000 Watt Consulting, full post

"You guys over there in Minneapolis are the best!"

– Judith Lindenau, Consultant and Coach
JWL REALTOR® Association Management Consulting

"How often have you heard the expression "...and the answer was right in front of me all the time!" Those of us that manage local markets are so used to complexity that the simplest solution is sometimes the hardest to see yet often the most valuable. 10K Research has taken a mountain of data and (painlessly) made some real sense of it for our 50K customers. Way to go guys!"

– David Charron, Chief Executive Officer, MRIS, Inc.

"Working with 10K Research and Marketing to deliver professional statistical reports to our membership has been a real pleasure. They have been easy to work with, they are very flexible, and they have shown a real commitment to delivering top-notch products."

– Kate Jones, Senior Manager, Customer Relations & Integrated Solutions, Metrolist, Inc.

"The Houston Association of REALTORS® has been pleased to be able to provide more timely and up-to-date information to our members as a result of the weekly statistics provided by 10K Research & Marketing. Especially during markets like we have now, it is even more important to stay on top of the changing marketplace so that we can react or even anticipate the trends, and this product allows us to do that."

– Vicki Fullerton, REALTOR® and 2009 Chair of the Houston Association of REALTORS®

"You guys rock! Our media coverage has picked up substantially, directly attributable to the new stats format. Sure, we have the raw MLS data, but it's like owning a huge diamond that's still a part of a rock in a mine. There's a great deal of work and knowledge required to extract the diamond and shape and polish it to make it shiny and desirable. It's the same with the Market Reporting Partnership Program offered by 10K—it's the packaging and analysis of our MLS data that makes all the difference in the world."

– Melanie Green, Communications Director, Northeast Florida Association of REALTORS®, Jacksonville, FL

"A major goal for our association was to become the primary source of statistical information for our local market. We began providing our members with the Monthly Indicators and the Local Market Updates in July 2008, and the response has been phenomenal. Not only do our members look to the association for stats, but the media and the public look to us as well. We think that these reports have helped our members provide better service to their clients by arming them with the knowledge they need to call themselves 'experts' in the local real estate market."

– Brooke Hallman, MLS/CLS Coordinator, Peoria Area Association of REALTORS®

"The Peoria Area Association of REALTORS® contracted for Market Reporting Partnerships almost a year ago and it couldn't have been at a better time. The reports have been a tremendous help assisting the association, brokers and agents monitor the real estate market in our area and also educate buyers and sellers. When the national media has done nothing more than report doom and gloom, we have had the tools to accurately provide the local story."

– Dallas Hancock, CEO, RCE, Peoria Area Association of REALTORS®

We are very satisfied with the new statistical reports. We have received some great feedback from our customers and we are using them to assist us with our monthly press releases. You guys do a great job. Thank you!

– Christy J. New, Executive Assistant, Triangle MLS, Inc.

"The monthly Market Statistical Reports are one of our top member benefits, according to our members. Working with 10K has been great; they're prompt in replying to questions and requests for changes, and they always meet our requests with a positive attitude. And the reports look great!"

– Michelle K. Ahrens, Director of Education/Communications,
REALTOR® Association of the Sioux Empire, Inc., Sioux Falls, South Dakota

"We had problems with conflicting information. Once we started using your stats, we became the only legitimate and trusted source of housing market data. Now everyone comes to us first."

– Bart Hacker, Chief Executive Officer,
REALTOR® Association of the Sioux Empire, Inc., Sioux Falls, South Dakota

"The MLS reports we receive are truly one-of-a kind. The housing data is so relevant and comprehensive that we have seen our media requests increase dramatically."

– Jonna Fernandez, Communications Director, Collin County Association of REALTORS®, Plano, TX

"The reports we receive from 10K have been wildly popular with our members and they anticipate their arrival every month. Initially we received the Monthly Market Indicators Report along with individual local area reports for the areas where our members live and work. We recently added the Quarterly Foreclosure Report, and our members really like it. We have thoroughly enjoyed our relationship with 10K."

– Steve Haid, RCE, e-PRO®, Member Services Director, Collin County Association of REALTORS®

WHAT THEY'RE SAYING ABOUT OUR ROAD SHOWS

"Terrific information—some of the best at our conference, as a matter of fact. I have taught courses to adults at the local university here on effective presentations, public speaking, etc. and your material was perfect for the audience you had and your delivery was impeccable."

– Laura J. Burns, RCE, Executive Officer,
Clinton County Board of REALTORS®, Adirondack-Champlain Valley Multiple Listing Service

"I trust that you know what you are doing. You are very talented!"

– Kimberly Koehler, Broker/Owner, EXIT Three Rivers Realty

"I left the presentation with renewed enthusiasm about growing my business."

– Steve Katkov, Esq., Vice President, Regional Manager, First American Exchange Company

I've had lots of positive feedback on your presentation. Thank you for taking the time to present."

– Irene Levy, ABR, CHMS, Sales Manager, Coldwell Banker Burnet

WHAT REALTORS® AND BROKERS ARE SAYING:

"Your reports kick ass."

– R. Andy Fazendin, President/Sales Manager/Associate Broker,
Roger Fazendin REALTORS® in Wayzata, MN

"I'm not the kind of REALTOR® who's going to send out a recipe of the month. I like to send information that is relevant to people and their situation and has value."

– Nobu Hata, REALTOR® in Minneapolis, MN

"I posted the Monthly Skinny Video on Twitter and about 5 minutes later I got an email from a buyer looking to purchase a home. This particular buyer started following my 'tweets' about 2 weeks ago and finally decided to, as they put it, 'get off the wall and on the dance floor.' My chances of hitting a bullseye have gotten so much easier."

– Stacy Cranbrook, REALTOR® in Minneapolis, MN

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING:

"We appreciate 10K's efforts to make the distinction between traditional and lender-mediated sales activity. It allows our readers to get a better handle on what has become two different market segments. The Foreclosures and Short Sales reports tell a complete story about what's going on in the market, while others show just a single, blended, average sales price."

– Jeff Schneider, Manager, Special Projects and Research,
Community Planning & Economic Development, City of Minneapolis
