Evan & Lee Morrison, Queensland, Australia
I live in Queensland, Australia and I have just seen a program on the t.v. about you selling houses for people etc. I must say that I was most impressed with the way you handle everything and all the tips that you provided.
We do have Coldwell Banker real estate here as well. I will continue to find t.v. shows where you give tips about selling etc, as I have already picked up many things from you. Thank you.

Jack B. Scott Jr.
Yes Connie! I love seeing you on TV. You do a great job and I love your passion and expertise. Just saw you on Fox Business and have seen you on Happy Hour. When you are on, it's really a Happy hour! Be blessed.

"Hi Connie, I am dropping you a line as I watched your 'spot' on Fox business, relating to property in the US, more specifically in southern California.
Although we don't have specific enquiries from clients for this area of the world, I found it enlightening from a financial planning perspective. Property all over the world and more directly in Europe is suffering from a price collapse in much the same way as the US, due to the globalised nature of banks these days.
When do you see the lending situation freeing up in the US nad will this, in your view, have a knock on effect in Europe? By the way great sunny delivery and you have the most enchanting appearance, hope you don't mind me saying that!!"

David Spellerberg commenting on the FOX Internet Show "The Strategy Room" where Connie was interviewed by former LA District Attorney, Kimberly Guilfoyle: "Connie, you are the perfect combination. Very sharp, knowledge, articulate and of course very beautiful. As you said, the key is hard work and LISTENING to what your client says to you. You can never listen to much. Congratulations on a great interview."

Roberto Magalhaes commenting on appearance regarding the new housing plan to help borrowers:
"In a free market, everyone and anyone needs to stand to lose-
accountability is key. It would be great if Fox had you on additional panels !!!"

Susan Kong, Miami, FL
"I've seen you in "Real Estate Confidential" and I love your style! I wish you could sell my house but I live in Miami. If my realtors were anything like you, I probably have sold my house already. I love your style and impressed with how you approach your clients. Thank you."

R. Jones, Memphis Tennessee
Connie,
Saw you on Neil Cavuto yesterday. You mentioned that buyers were leery of making low offers on houses that were priced a little high in this market. My wife and I are one of those couples. We've seen some houses we love, but they seem like their starting price is too high...We found a nice home that fits our requirements for ......, but thought it would be very insulting to offer ...... It's in an area with many other houses to choose from, but this one was a move-in ready. Any suggestions?

Meryl Weprin, Dayton, OH
"Hi Connie, my husband and I watched your show on a Delta flight last week and we thought you could possibly help us. We were impressed by your honesty and evaluation of the house you eventually sold on the segment we saw in the air. Thank you."

Bill Yarber
(YOUR WORLD WITH NEIL CAVUTO- July 27, 2009)Just saw you on FOX during your interview with Neil Cavuto. You prove that beauty and brains do mix very nicely. You are quite beautiful, look like a model and obviously know your market and industry. Quite refreshing. My cousins in the ........area used to have a real estate business, but none of them look like you. Shame.

David & Rebecca Smith, North Fork, ID- Out of State Client
After having our house on the market for a year with not even one showing, we new we needed a big-gun with global exposure to help move it. After seeing Connie on the Fine Living Network, we knew if anyone could help us, it was her. Her no-nonsense, straight-shooting, put the client first philosophy drew us in. But then we thought, "why would this Beverly Hills big-shot want to help us"? Nevertheless, we called and that question never got asked. Connie was congenial and highly-motivated from the first call and assured us, even though our property was over 1200 miles away, that she would find us an agent to help sell it. And that, she did. Connie found us an agent, and equipped us with the tools to help move our property right away, even 1200 miles away. If you think distance is a problem, think again......nothing stops Connie!!

Mark Hanlin
Connie, from the brief clip of you that I saw tonight, I have to say I was impressed--you presented your position well, with authority and expertise (not everyone can keep up with Hannity). My thoughts...gosh, where do I begin??
At the risk of sounding like a right-wing whacko, I must admit I'm concerned with the direction our country is taking, fiscally, politically, socially. And coming from 20+ yrs in the military, throw national security into that mix! I definitely think TARP was a BAD idea, and I'm supremely disappointed in the previous administration for setting us down that path. I've noticed over the past 10 or so years that I've become something of a news junkie, and now wish I'd paid more attention in Poli Sci class...! I will be very interested to see what happens in the next several years. (Responding to appearance on "Hannity")

Jim Morris
Connie, I just saw you on Hannity and wanted to send you a message. Right on target with your outlook on the economy and housing. Absolutely stunning also.

Steven Gray, Certified Appraiser
Thank you Connie for stating home sellers should get an appraisal as part of the pre-listing process. I'm a certified appraiser and I'm flabbergasted by the number of home owners that continue to think their house is worth what it was in 2005/2006. (regarding Fox Business appearance Mar 27, 2009)

I heard of your capital gain suspension plan on Fox TV this afternoon. I like that idea. What we need now is a free market based incentive, not a bailout, in order to fix our current financial crisis. I would like to share with you a timely innovative economic policy proposal which is 100% based on free market principles that I have been working on to help solve our current financial crisis and seek your kind feedback. Maybe together with the capital gain tax
suspension it will really help turn our economy around.

Dan Krieger, Florida
"Hi Connie, I enjoyed listening to your interview. I'm a realtor and mortgage broker in Florida. Not only did I find you intelligent and polished but beautiful as well. Wishing you a Happy New Year!"

Jane Hanson, Seaside CA
Dear Connie, we saw you last evening on the Hannity show and just want to tell you that you are NOT alone out here in CA!!! I was so happy to hear you say that People DON'T Get IT! It's getting more and more disheartening as the days go by and I"m so unsure of where our country is headed. Thank you for speaking up for us!

Sergeant Michael Bustamante, Anaheim Police Department
I just wanted to say I was impressed with your segment on Fox News Live. I felt you were very well informed and have a strong opinion about the economy, and housing situation. It was nice to hear someone making sense of this whole economic situation. (Responding to appearance on "Hannity" May 2009)

Follow Up: Sgt Michael Bustamante Wanted to say Hi! And I recently purchased a condo in Ontario CA. I think I finally received enough information and the buyers market was just right, I made a purchase and locked in a 30 year fixed rate at 4.5 %. Glad I watched your segments on u-tube.


Millard Smith (Fox Business "Happy Hour" Aug 11, 2009)
I just wanted to let you know that your response to affordable housing in high-end neighborhoods was great. You did not mention the crime factor though-I suppose you could'nt without being critisized. Although it would be comical to see a habitat for humanity home go in next door to Shawn or some of the liberial actors in your area. I have been developing high end house's and waterfront homes here in the Charleston area for 15 years but do believe that affordable housing with the grant money available from the stimulous package is going to be the future for the next few years.

Gino R. Stumpo, CFP® Vice President - Investments, Long Beach CA
Hi Connie I just saw your piece on FBN and wanted to say it was a great piece. Very interesting - many things are happen and will happen with regards to real estate (both residential and commercial).
Keep up the good work. (Fox Business "Happy Hour" Aug 11, 2009)

Steve Klar, ERGONOIC REALITIES
I saw you on Sean Hannity show tonight. You really had a lot of good thoughts on banks and how our tax dollars are being wasted on them. I agree with your conservative values.

Ray Ralston, Arizona
Hello Connie, I saw your interview on the Sean Hannity show the night of May 7th. You are right. Most people don't get what is happening to our country. Obama is marching us to Communism. The government is taking a little at a time.
My son and I are trying to get into real estate investing over the last 2 years. Because of one thing or another, including me losing my job last July, and have not found one since, it has been a slow go. Now the government is changing the rules almost daily and making it extremely difficult to get any property. We may have found something just in the last week and are proceeding with an offer and hopes of a loan approval in a short time. This would finally be our first
investment.

Maria Apodaca, California
Good Evening Connie, I saw you on Hannity this evening and I was very impressed with what you had to say. A conservative voice is very unusual in LA. I admire people who speak up and are not ashamed of what they believe. Thank you for taking a stand!

Tracy Grote, MAI, CCIM- TRACY GROTE & COMPANY, Austin Texas
Ms. De Groot, THANK YOU for presenting an aspect of the real estate industry to the public through your interviews on the various TV shows. As you may be aware, Costar stated today that during the 1Q2009, the commercial real estate brokerage firms are realizing a decline in sales and market activity. Whereas the housing market lead the way in the real estate downturn due to poor lending practices and underwriting, the commercial real estate market is next in line. Again, THANK YOU for presenting a logical, concise, real-world look at our present economic situation.

Corey McGrath, Los Angeles- I am an avid Fox News viewer and was waiting with bated breath for the story this afternoon, which the hosts kept teasing us with regarding the current and upcoming real estate markets. Thrilled to see a home town spokesperson contributing expertise on the subject, it was a pleasure viewing your position. As a fellow business woman, in this city, during this time, I want to thank you for your comprehensive as well as professionally realistic view on the real estate market and urge you to consider our service to help your business work smarter, not harder. After all, it’s about having the best supporting you in order for all to achieve success. (regarding show "Cashin' In" on Fox News & Fox Business Apr 4)

Denise Taber, East Providence, RI
"I am writing to you today just to commend and thank you. I have seen two episodes of Real Estate Confidential recently and I wanted to let you know that your enthusiasm, drive, and passion have been so inspiring. You are also empowering! I have not only learned some of the craft in my pre licensing classes, but have been fortunate enough to have learned from you. I look forward to putting those tools to use in the near future. I hope some day I can be as valuable to the profession as you are. I wish you continued success in 2008."

Rebecca Ellis, Modesto, CA
"I am a real estate agent in the Central Valley. I really enjoy watching you on Real EState Confidential." As a matter of fact, I was just saying last night, that watching that show is like training for me."

Christine Benicaso, Morgan Hill, CA
"Connie, I just wanted to say I thought your business style is great and loved you on the Real Estate Confidential show. I am a newbie getting ready to start, and it is pure inspiration for me to watch someone be a natural at the biz. Thanks for sharing!"

John Schmitt, Jacksonville, FL
"I saw you on Fox News today. Great, awesome, wonderful and WILD hair! I love it!"

Grace Quevedo, El Paso, TX
"Hi Connie, I'm a Realtor in El Paso, TX. You'd have to look very closely on a map to find us but I've been living here for 15 years and I love the city and my work. From what I've read about you and by watching you on the show, I can tell that you have distinguished yourself from your peers. I look forward to seeing more of your episodes on the show."

Cindy Seput, Los Angeles, CA
"Connie, I saw you on Fox News yesterday and thought you were great. Thanks for being optimistic and enthusiastic about our market!"
