Higginbotham Photography LLC was founded in 2014 in Jacksonville NC As Tracey was preparing to retire from the United States Marine Corps he wanted to find a way to use his camera to provide a service to the community After some diligent research he realized there was a plethora of vacant homes on the local market that had been sitting for one year or more and the common theme he noticed was 99 of the homes had poor quality photographs This sparked an idea and after more research he felt confident that he could provide a

service to the community by providing high quality photographs that would turn lookers into buyers

Tracey has since returned home where he looks to achieve the same success he did in North Carolina We have also recently obtained a Drone and expect to be able to provide you with aerial photography of your listings starting December 1st We have already completed the required FAA licensing requirements and are currently awaiting our temporary pilots license That being said mention this article and any property that is booked with Higginbotham Photography LLC during the month of November will receive four free aerial photographs (where allowed) of that property once we have finalized authorization to fly commercially

Case 12-17 Use of Deceptive Domain NameURL (ldquoUniform Resource

Locatorrdquo) (Adopted May 2001)

REALTORreg X a principal broker in the firm XYZ was technologically savvy and constantly looking for ways to use the Internet to promote his firm and drive additional traffic to his website Being an early adapter to the Internet he had registered but not used domain names that incorporated or played on the names of many of his competitors and their firms including ABC REALTORSreg REALTORreg X and his information technology staff concluded that one way to drive traffic to the firmrsquos website would be to take advantage of the search engines commonly used by potential buyers and sellers They realized that when potential buyers or sellers searched on key words like ldquoreal estaterdquo or ldquoREALTORSreg rdquo or on similar words lists of domain names would appear and that when consumers searched the Internet for ABC REALTORSreg one of the domain names that might appear would be REALTORreg Xrsquos domain name abcrealtorscom REALTORreg X decided to take advantage of the domain names that he had previously registered and pointed several that used in various ways the names of his competitors including ldquoabcrealtorscomrdquo to his site In a matter of days REALTORreg X learned that he had been charged with a violation of Article 12 of the Code of Ethics by REALTORreg A the owner of ABC REALTORSreg alleging that his (REALTORreg Xrsquos) use of the domain name ldquoabcrealtorscomrdquo presented a false picture to potential buyers and sellers and others on the Internet At the hearing REALTORreg X defended himself indicating that in his opinion use of a domain name was not advertising or a ldquorepresentationrdquo to the public but simply a convenient way for Internet users to find relevant websites Moreover ldquoWhen web surfers reach my home page there is no question that it is my site since I clearly show XYZrsquos name and our status as REALTORSregrdquo he continued ldquoThese complaints are just a lot of sour grapes from dinosaurs who arenrsquot keeping up and who donrsquot realize that on the Internet itrsquos lsquoevery man for himselfrsquo rdquo

The Hearing Panel disagreed with REALTORreg Xrsquos justification indicating that while his use of a domain name that employed another firmrsquos name might not be precluded by law or regulation it did not comply with the Codersquos higher duty to present a ldquotrue picturerdquo REALTORreg X was found in violation of Article 12 presenting an untrue picture in his representation to the public

HUD released a propose rule implementing FHA condo financing changes that includes NAR-supported streamlining of board re-certifications and a return to spot loans which are FHA-insured loans on individual units in non-FHA approved projects But NAR says more work needs to be done on a provision to ease the owner-occupancy ratio which is currently limited to 50 percent The rule proposes to defer setting the final ratio until it looks at a range of options between 25 and 75 percent HUD has the authority right now to set the owner-occupancy requirement at 35 percent while the regulatory process moves forward NAR President Tom Salomone says in a statement We would urge them to consider that option rather than defer the decision for an indeterminate amount of time 2017 Flood Insurance Rates Released

National Flood Insurance Program rates are set to rise an average of approximately 6 percent on April 1 2017 less than the average for 2016 Appraisers Dont Have to Test

NAR notched a win when HUD released updates to its FHA single-family loan handbook that removed language requiring appraisers to operate stoves and other appliances to test how well they work NAR asked for the language to be changed because the requirement is more appropriate for home inspectors HUD revised the language to require appraisers to note the appliances in the property NAR Presses CFPB on Closing Disclosure Access

As the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) considers updates to the Know Before You Owe initiative NAR has submitted comments urging the agency to emphasize in its rule that real estate professionals may have access to the Closing Disclosure NAR also asked the agency to take steps to decrease uncertainty during the closing process

Case 12-17 Use of Deceptive Domain NameURL (ldquoUniform Resource

Locatorrdquo) (Adopted May 2001)

REALTORreg X a principal broker in the firm XYZ was technologically savvy and constantly looking for ways to use the Internet to promote his firm and drive additional traffic to his website Being an early adapter to the Internet he had registered but not used domain names that incorporated or played on the names of many of his competitors and their firms including ABC REALTORSreg REALTORreg X and his information technology staff concluded that one way to drive traffic to the firmrsquos website would be to take advantage of the search engines commonly used by potential buyers and sellers They realized that when potential buyers or sellers searched on key words like ldquoreal estaterdquo or ldquoREALTORSreg rdquo or on similar words lists of domain names would appear and that when consumers searched the Internet for ABC REALTORSreg one of the domain names that might appear would be REALTORreg Xrsquos domain name abcrealtorscom REALTORreg X decided to take advantage of the domain names that he had previously registered and pointed several that used in various ways the names of his competitors including ldquoabcrealtorscomrdquo to his site In a matter of days REALTORreg X learned that he had been charged with a violation of Article 12 of the Code of Ethics by REALTORreg A the owner of ABC REALTORSreg alleging that his (REALTORreg Xrsquos) use of the domain name ldquoabcrealtorscomrdquo presented a false picture to potential buyers and sellers and others on the Internet At the hearing REALTORreg X defended himself indicating that in his opinion use of a domain name was not advertising or a ldquorepresentationrdquo to the public but simply a convenient way for Internet users to find relevant websites Moreover ldquoWhen web surfers reach my home page there is no question that it is my site since I clearly show XYZrsquos name and our status as REALTORSregrdquo he continued ldquoThese complaints are just a lot of sour grapes from dinosaurs who arenrsquot keeping up and who donrsquot realize that on the Internet itrsquos lsquoevery man for himselfrsquo rdquo

The Hearing Panel disagreed with REALTORreg Xrsquos justification indicating that while his use of a domain name that employed another firmrsquos name might not be precluded by law or regulation it did not comply with the Codersquos higher duty to present a ldquotrue picturerdquo REALTORreg X was found in violation of Article 12 presenting an untrue picture in his representation to the public

HUD released a propose rule implementing FHA condo financing changes that includes NAR-supported streamlining of board re-certifications and a return to spot loans which are FHA-insured loans on individual units in non-FHA approved projects But NAR says more work needs to be done on a provision to ease the owner-occupancy ratio which is currently limited to 50 percent The rule proposes to defer setting the final ratio until it looks at a range of options between 25 and 75 percent HUD has the authority right now to set the owner-occupancy requirement at 35 percent while the regulatory process moves forward NAR President Tom Salomone says in a statement We would urge them to consider that option rather than defer the decision for an indeterminate amount of time 2017 Flood Insurance Rates Released

National Flood Insurance Program rates are set to rise an average of approximately 6 percent on April 1 2017 less than the average for 2016 Appraisers Dont Have to Test

NAR notched a win when HUD released updates to its FHA single-family loan handbook that removed language requiring appraisers to operate stoves and other appliances to test how well they work NAR asked for the language to be changed because the requirement is more appropriate for home inspectors HUD revised the language to require appraisers to note the appliances in the property NAR Presses CFPB on Closing Disclosure Access

As the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) considers updates to the Know Before You Owe initiative NAR has submitted comments urging the agency to emphasize in its rule that real estate professionals may have access to the Closing Disclosure NAR also asked the agency to take steps to decrease uncertainty during the closing process

HUD released a propose rule implementing FHA condo financing changes that includes NAR-supported streamlining of board re-certifications and a return to spot loans which are FHA-insured loans on individual units in non-FHA approved projects But NAR says more work needs to be done on a provision to ease the owner-occupancy ratio which is currently limited to 50 percent The rule proposes to defer setting the final ratio until it looks at a range of options between 25 and 75 percent HUD has the authority right now to set the owner-occupancy requirement at 35 percent while the regulatory process moves forward NAR President Tom Salomone says in a statement We would urge them to consider that option rather than defer the decision for an indeterminate amount of time 2017 Flood Insurance Rates Released

National Flood Insurance Program rates are set to rise an average of approximately 6 percent on April 1 2017 less than the average for 2016 Appraisers Dont Have to Test

NAR notched a win when HUD released updates to its FHA single-family loan handbook that removed language requiring appraisers to operate stoves and other appliances to test how well they work NAR asked for the language to be changed because the requirement is more appropriate for home inspectors HUD revised the language to require appraisers to note the appliances in the property NAR Presses CFPB on Closing Disclosure Access

As the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) considers updates to the Know Before You Owe initiative NAR has submitted comments urging the agency to emphasize in its rule that real estate professionals may have access to the Closing Disclosure NAR also asked the agency to take steps to decrease uncertainty during the closing process

Case 12-17 Use of Deceptive Domain NameURL (ldquoUniform Resource

Locatorrdquo) (Adopted May 2001)

REALTORreg X a principal broker in the firm XYZ was technologically savvy and constantly looking for ways to use the Internet to promote his firm and drive additional traffic to his website Being an early adapter to the Internet he had registered but not used domain names that incorporated or played on the names of many of his competitors and their firms including ABC REALTORSreg REALTORreg X and his information technology staff concluded that one way to drive traffic to the firmrsquos website would be to take advantage of the search engines commonly used by potential buyers and sellers They realized that when potential buyers or sellers searched on key words like ldquoreal estaterdquo or ldquoREALTORSreg rdquo or on similar words lists of domain names would appear and that when consumers searched the Internet for ABC REALTORSreg one of the domain names that might appear would be REALTORreg Xrsquos domain name abcrealtorscom REALTORreg X decided to take advantage of the domain names that he had previously registered and pointed several that used in various ways the names of his competitors including ldquoabcrealtorscomrdquo to his site In a matter of days REALTORreg X learned that he had been charged with a violation of Article 12 of the Code of Ethics by REALTORreg A the owner of ABC REALTORSreg alleging that his (REALTORreg Xrsquos) use of the domain name ldquoabcrealtorscomrdquo presented a false picture to potential buyers and sellers and others on the Internet At the hearing REALTORreg X defended himself indicating that in his opinion use of a domain name was not advertising or a ldquorepresentationrdquo to the public but simply a convenient way for Internet users to find relevant websites Moreover ldquoWhen web surfers reach my home page there is no question that it is my site since I clearly show XYZrsquos name and our status as REALTORSregrdquo he continued ldquoThese complaints are just a lot of sour grapes from dinosaurs who arenrsquot keeping up and who donrsquot realize that on the Internet itrsquos lsquoevery man for himselfrsquo rdquo

The Hearing Panel disagreed with REALTORreg Xrsquos justification indicating that while his use of a domain name that employed another firmrsquos name might not be precluded by law or regulation it did not comply with the Codersquos higher duty to present a ldquotrue picturerdquo REALTORreg X was found in violation of Article 12 presenting an untrue picture in his representation to the public

HUD released a propose rule implementing FHA condo financing changes that includes NAR-supported streamlining of board re-certifications and a return to spot loans which are FHA-insured loans on individual units in non-FHA approved projects But NAR says more work needs to be done on a provision to ease the owner-occupancy ratio which is currently limited to 50 percent The rule proposes to defer setting the final ratio until it looks at a range of options between 25 and 75 percent HUD has the authority right now to set the owner-occupancy requirement at 35 percent while the regulatory process moves forward NAR President Tom Salomone says in a statement We would urge them to consider that option rather than defer the decision for an indeterminate amount of time 2017 Flood Insurance Rates Released

NAR notched a win when HUD released updates to its FHA single-family loan handbook that removed language requiring appraisers to operate stoves and other appliances to test how well they work NAR asked for the language to be changed because the requirement is more appropriate for home inspectors HUD revised the language to require appraisers to note the appliances in the property NAR Presses CFPB on Closing Disclosure Access

Using the Sentrilock app versus your card

When having difficulties please call Sentrilock (877-736-8745) They can easily

troubleshoot any issues as the APP does not always have sig-nal In some cases the lock-box needs to be woken up by having a card stuck into the

box then it works

ldquoAgent Safety Featurerdquo

Agent Safety feature and was designed to proactive-ly promote safety After opening a lockbox via the

SentriSmarttrade Mobile APP agents will be prompted to confirm they are safe If for some reason the

agent cannot confirm their safety the system will automatically communicate that status and their lo-cation to their designated emergency contact(s) to

inform them of the agentrsquos status

This opt-in service was officially released on Octo-ber 12th 2016 To access this new feature users will

simply need to visit Settings in the SentriSmarttrade Mobile App to turn on the service and designate

emergency contacts that should be notified
