We are launching a newly revised website!
Stay tuned for our new real estate website for the San Bernardino Communities. We are in the final phase of creating the new site to emphasize organic placement in all the major search engines.
We created our first website in 1998. This site (http://www.highcountryrents.com/) was developed to showcase our property management company; High Country Property Management. At the time, we concentrated our marketing efforts on various pay-per-hit placements on the major search engines. Over a number of years, we worked this system very hard and engaged in the bidding wars for paid placements. Then, in 2000 we expanded by adding a website for real sales by launching http://www.budmcharg.com/. Again, we subscribed to the pay-per-hit system to place this site near the top of most of the major search engines. We added still another real estate sales site (http://www.arrowheadresorthomesales.com/) in 2002.
With the many changes in the way the public searches for properties over the past few years, it because obvious that pay-per-hit marketing was not reaching as many potential clients as we could reach from high organic placement. With this understanding, we have decided to shift our marketing efforts away from pay-per-hits to better organic placement by more effective use of keywords and meta-tags and more convenient site design. This new, revised site (http://www.arrowheadresorthomesales.com/) will be launched on Thursday, November 12, 2009.
Please check out our revised site and see if it doesn’t offer you more information and easy access to property details. Feel free to let us know what you think of the new site.

Welcome to my blog
Well, it is finally time for me to move into the new century and start blogging. I have given this a lot of consideration over the past 8 years; but just haven't taken the time to get started. So here I go...
First of all, I hope everyone understands that the only thing I absolutely, positively know for sure about real estate is that I live in a house! Anyone who tells you they know anything else about real estate is stretching the truth, at a minimum. This is a fickle business, for sure! You can track the trends, and watch the activity; but in the end, it is really just a crap shoot to make perfect decisions in real estate.
So understanding that I don't claim to be an expert, I do have a lot of knowledge about the San Bernardino Mountains communities and our real estate market. And, I would be delighted to try to answer your questions and share my opinions.
Let me hear from you.
