I think you are right - realtor blogs have PR on the blog home page but not on internal post pages unless there are inbound links. So you need recommendations from inbound links to your prime posts.
I think with Google Caffeine we are seeing more emphasis on on-page optimisation.
These days google is treating profile links as spammy links. So, get rid of profile links. Just make quality links on relevant pages to get your serps up.
This Google Custom search may do a better job of searching the forums for some keywords than the old forum search does. The results do not include threads from the Asset Managers Forum however. To search that forum you will need to be actually in the Asset Managers Forum and you will need to use the old forum search below.
