I have a potential client who wants to have his home shown using 360 tour. I assume that he is referring to the use of a video camera. If anybody has used it, I would appreciate hearing about their experiences. Also, do you know any videotographer in the St. Louis area?

Do not go with this company. They change the rules to their liking. I cancelled in May and one of the employees agreed then I talk to another he made it a month later. I was never told that I would receive a link to cancel and the one employee said I was sent it July 7. I said wait a minute if I cancelled in May why would it take so long to send me a cancel link in July? She could not answer. That gave them another reason to continue charging me. When I spoke to the second employee he said I was sent the link three times to cancel. I never received one. However, because they said they sent it gave them reason to continue charging me and I have no reason to defy them. Wrong I turned them in to BBB. They change the records to their liking. <br />
Beware of these snakes. I did not use the site and I even had my domain transferred. I would never use them again.

<p>After I recently learned in my e-PRO course about how weak my company email client was, I converted to using MS Outlook. I use Outlook at my "other job" and am quite familiar with it. But, it seems as soon as I converted to using it for my business at home, I have been having some issues come up.</p>
<p>For one, it doesn't seem to work well with my Treo 750. I now only receive some of my emails on my Treo and they only stay in the inbox for a short time, then vanish! As long as I read and respond right away, I'm okay. But messages will vanish after I respond to them. Previously, the messages would stay in my inbox on my Treo until I deleted them. Does anyone have any idea what might be casuing this?</p>
<p>Secondly, I set up my email signature in accordance with e-PRO recomendations (below) and everything was great. All of a sudden today, my signature is double spaced, in white Helvetica font (invisible on white background). I haven't changed anything. What is causing this to happen? I tried to delete that signature and build a new one but it's the same thing. I'm getting frustrated. Any ideas?</p>

<p>In today's papers Navy Federal Credit Union advertises 30 year fixed rate mortgages "as low as 5.375" . Next to this rate the APR is listed as 5.534%<br />
As a borrower I assume I would pay the higher rate for a loan. What does the lower rate mean? Is it significant or more of an advertising strategy?</p>

Hi Folks,
</p>
<p>
I am new to the list in that I am a 'Lurker'. I have not taken full advantage of the valuable resources that are available through a community much to my loss. In any event I have a question possibly two....Does anyone currently use an easy exit type agreement with their sellers when they list their property. This agreement basically states that the seller has the unrestricted right to terminate in the event they are unsatisfied with the service etc..
</p>
<p>
If you do use this type of agreement, do you have a 'marketing fee, transaction fee or some other kind of fee that you charge when they terminate? If so how do you explain this fee and what do you charge?
</p>
<p>
Any information on exit agreements and or transaction fees to be paid upon <em><strong>early termination</strong></em> of a listing agreement would be appreciated.
</p>
<p>
Thanks and BTW...I plan to be more diligent in participating and less 'lurking' ;-)
</p>
