Jim Kimmons

As a real estate broker and freelance writer, it's my good fortune to reside in Taos, NM, one of the most beautiful places on the planet. My freelance writing encompasses a wide range of business related topics, Web work and print media. I've ghost written five books, but also have my own books out now in print and eBook formats.

As the Real Estate Business Guide writer for the New York Times website at About.com, I write business management and marketing articles for real estate and mortgage professionals as well as real estate investors. I've written home improvement material for magazines, including a cover story for "Energy of the City," the magazine for Washington Gas.

Being a bit of a tech nerd, I've also written extensively about technology, and how to use it in business. My eBook, "Small Business In The Cloud" presents more than 100 resource links for free or very low cost cloud computing and mobile solutions.

Of course, if you're in Taos, NM, look me up. I'm a working real estate broker. My experience doing the work and writing about it inspired me to write "70 Things First Time Home Buyers Need To Know," published by Turner Publishing in September 2010.
