We love it when home buyers, sellers and agents connect online! Take this recent example: first-time home seller DJ Waldow posted a question on Trulia Voices about how to sell his home, and agent

Less than two months later, the home is already under contract! Check out DJ’s side of the story and Michael’s account of the
