Just put myself on vacation with my main bpo mill . . . Just for a few days - need to get my house in order & thought a break would help. Hopefully they'll fill my inbox with orders after the middle of next week!

I've been overloaded last 2 days with auto-assigns- once I submit the order, another pops up; it is very busy week for me. I need a cold margarita and some rest :-)

F**vv has been the slowest of all in my area. About 1/2 of work I had last month.

I've been getting slammed by several companies this week on auto-assign. Need some SoCo and coke...

Farvv very slow this week for me...

I've done about 25-since my last listing...Hold on a little longer they'll come.
Speaking of which, what is the word on the flood, rush or wave of new REOs; Are they coming, are they here, is it now July, Aug or Sept or never? I've been doing more BPOs but they haven't lead to any new REO Listings-Whats the word?

Patience pays back in this type of industry.

The last 2 weeks have been steady to the upside about 20% as far as bpos go. Many have been oddball properties though taking the comments to the max and pushing the envelop on search criteria, consulting the provider for guidance, etc. Knock on wood, very little in the way of QC issues. No complaints here, I am grateful for the work.

For two weeks, I sat on my patio with my laptop and watch the grass grow......was very slow, until Friday.......then the dam broke......got buried for the weekend.....finished in the wee hours, Monday morning......was up and running early Monday.... the same cycle started all over again.....got hit from 4 companies....yesterday afternoon, I had to put Big Bird on hold......way too many orders and not enough time to complete.
I had one from yesterday that I chose to ignore from SS...figured somebody else could pick it up......didn't happen..they called me this morning.....even upped the fee without asking for it.....told them to try other agents...if no takers, I'll pick it up with two extra days to complete. Less than 60 seconds later, I got an email saying she called all the other agents and no takers.....hmmmmmmm.....how many calls can you make in 60 seconds?..........lol

FARVV has been slower than normal for me also.

Ditto for me with FARVV until today...got like 6 in 5 minutes!

Big Bird has really slowed for me - a lot of out of area offers but slow otherwise. (I quit taking orders that I spend more then a 45 minutes getting to and 45 minutes back - for 45 - I call it the rule of 45, i just won't do.

I have been getting more interior then what I was use too, a couple new companies, but nothing easy in the past week.

I need it to pick up - but maybe I'll sneak away for a day or so to see my in-laws - while I can.

well i hope others just got rained on...
what seemed like was going to be the worse month in the last 12 months...
is now back on track..
just maxed out on ques..
back to a 9 am to 4 am work day..
but i am not complaining...

looks like 200+ will make it
new company called wanting to give 40 a week?
can i do 300+? OMG--
hope others are feeling the pain---of too many bpos....
peace..

Always good to hear about a new company - New to you or new in business - if you don;t want to share - understandable - would you PM me?

company new to me---safe guard..
i do not mind sharing..
i always shoot myself in the foot by sharing the wealth..
i did it with flat fees and now with bpos..
after contacting thousands of agents in regard to flat fees, they saturated the market and almost killed me..
then of course i shared bpos and the market got saturated ...
but one thing i have learned in life..
there is plenty of fish in the sea!
and when the hole gets dry--move on to another one!
In the end, I do not mind competition. It makes me better.
And for those who cannot keep up—they die off anyway!
So if any of you want—try Old Republic and Equity point too..
You can sometime s get a few from there!
I got what I got due to hard work, lots of luck and listing to lots of people---and even a few helping hands..
So I am not one to hold back a gift that was given to me!
Enjoy!
Peace—life is too short to be greedy..
