Hi RE Twitter, new guy here. I’ve been watching on the sidelines for the past few months – and have learned a lot from you – but am ready to jump in. Here’s a thread about me and some of the stuff I’m up to.

[Brett Poirier @ItsBrettPo]

@kbessey This was an incredibly helpful reply, thank you. I like the text replacement idea, I’m going to use that.

Property Managers: how are you getting your listings on Facebook Marketplace? We routinely have between 15-25 units available for rent, and Marketplace not enterprise friendly.

We’ve created user profiles that get banned. Any third parties? Bonus points for Canadian solution.

[Brett Poirier @ItsBrettPo]

@laughridge No matter how many times we write “if this ad is posted this unit is still available” it still doesn’t keep people from asking

[Brett Poirier @ItsBrettPo]

@moseskagan Damn. About 70% of our leads come through FB, that’s where people are looking

[Brett Poirier @ItsBrettPo]

@Jmrothenberg Awesome design work

[Brett Poirier @ItsBrettPo]

Probably a good time to ask your bank for a rate hold

[CBC News Alerts @CBCAlerts]

BREAKING NEWS: Canada's inflation rate climbs to 7.7 per cent, largest yearly increase since January 1983.

@wintercamefast @xoxoxmayra @calebsaysthings This thread is bananas

Last week someone made a fake notice pretending to be one of the property managers from @RedSandsPM threatening to evict anyone who leaves trash outside their door. Posted it all over the building and on people’s doors. Never boring.

[Brett Poirier @ItsBrettPo]

@moseskagan Fired two bad clients last month. Always the owners with under 5 doors causing the problems too

@StudentRentPro Covid lockdowns were pretty tight up here. Most universities went remote so students stayed at their parents’ to save money. Now that everything is back in person the groups of 5-6 students looking for housing is trying to make up for lost time.

[Brett Poirier @ItsBrettPo]

@StudentRentPro Same here in Eastern Canada. Highest demand over the past six weeks since pre-pandemic.

@mkobach Have a sweet spot for Savannah. Lots of architectural character, good food, great party vibes (open containers allowed) and very walkable. Plus it’s tropical.

[Brett Poirier @ItsBrettPo]

@evanrosenfeld Me! I’m here until early April. Let’s grab lunch

[Brett Poirier @ItsBrettPo]

Bought this century-old Victorian home and about to list it after some minor renovations. 7 beds, 3 baths and over 3,000 square feet in #PEI, Canada. They don’t make them like this anymore

[Brett Poirier @ItsBrettPo]

@MichaelAlbaum Probably over time. The sub-markets just perform better so it's hard to leave, even if there's a bit more work required with the properties

[Brett Poirier @ItsBrettPo]

Prior to this announcement, Airbnb’s nightly rental prices in Russia’s two biggest cities were historically low

[Brian Chesky @bchesky]

Airbnb is suspending all operations in Russia and Belarus

Got a quote for a $22k roof replacement. Seemed high but was in a hurry so nearly signed off.

Got a second quote at $14k for the same job.

Be careful of those who don't want your business.

@GuyDealership I bought my Tesla without a test drive and live 600 miles to the closest Tesla dealer. I cared most about the specs and financing options. The reputation of the brand made me confident enough to go ahead even without the traditional car-buying norms
