Why is it every time I log in there are like 400 'guests' and only 10 'users'?
Maybe the 'guests' don't know the benefits of becoming a 'user'?
So all the 'users' lets create a list of why 'guests' should become 'users'…it benefits everyone!
I'll start –
1) You can actually engage the forum and post questions/queries and thoughts about property

That's right, or perhaps the forum is quiet because the property market is quiet.
Property market maybe quiet but the finance market is not.
Lenders declining deals left right and centre.
As a result some of us USER'S dont have as much time as we used to get in and answer 101 questions.
Cheers

mine doesn't automatically sign me in…… so I only sign in when I post.

I also, obviously, post at a bear forum and it is remarkably quite also with regards to housing. Busy with global economics and stuff. The housing market is going through a massive calm before the storm, I'd wager. Either it gets stimulated and it holds on a bit longer, or it doesn't and it drops. Vendors queing up, buyers being wary and credit becoming cautious. It's exciting but in a dull way:)

Actually, my answer was a 'duh' statement. Just wanted to see if anybody could pick that up.
Maybe some people are just shy
I think there's probably more lurkers than posters. I often have clients come through this forum who have been visiting it for years but have never signed up and posted.

Spot on with all the above posts. In my case time! I only come here every so often, I used to be here every day. Too much on. I also don't log in everytime, I might just come have a look around and then go.
When questions get asked then people generally get answers. More questions and discussions, then more people will log in and want to join in

Email MeI couldnt see an appropriate topic to share this little story.
Several years ago I remember seeing Steve on TV sharing his success. I bought the book – 350 properties in 3 1/2 years. I was dead keen to implement this way of investing, but my husband didnt have the confidence. Now I'm divorced and single, and financially secure having just sold a business, I couldnt rememeber Steve's name nor the title of the book. I then searched the house down and finally found the book in the back shed. I was so excited, I dropped what I was doing and started reading. I knew he did seminars, but wasnt sure if that was still happening. I then found the website and notice that he was going to be here in Perth next week. How's that for an airy story.
Of course I booked immediately. Im so looking forward to it to start my new venture

Go Jenny. The value of meeting and mixing with like minded people is hard to measure, but it motivates us and validates our goals n dreams. The costs are minor compared with just about anything you do in real estate.
Have a great time while you pursue your goals..

Just as in the up times … people flock to property and property forums …
In the down times .. or percieved down times .. people stay away from what they see as a liability.
Does it make sense? no? …
I didnt write the book on human behavioral science.
Same with other posters, I look around and if I want to post I will log in (if I remember my password!)
I'm always reading and not always posting
, as property managment is my area of expertise (in VIC anyway) there isn't always a query I can help with, I enjoy reading and learning though .Iv just joined so you can add me onto this list. if anyone has any questions related to property in South Africa then please drop me a line.
I was thinking recently the forum is quiet, similar to the FWORD maybe because property is a bit quiet, it brings to mind an old football song…… You only sing when your winning.
Although for me at the moment I have been doing better property wise than the last couple of years….. even with the Brisbane floods.
