Augusta Chronicle reports Laney Supermarket got evicted by SunTrust Bank. Instead of donating the food to the needy, the marshall trucked it away to the dump...right in front of people who really need a hand! Tsk tsk! Officials said onlookers became angry when they learned they would not be allowed to take away food and other sundries that were piled outside the grocery as “abandoned property....“There are people with babies who need diapers out here,” she said.

![]() Would you allow an ex-drug dealer to sell your home? Before you say no, read about Jermaine Morrison of Sotheby's who used to hock crack to homies before turning a new leaf to hockin' homes. Pretty amazing! Lots of gems in this New York Observer article The Powder Broker: From Teenage Drug Dealer to Real Estate ‘It’ Guy, written by my galpal Helaina Hovitz: “You learn supply and demand,” said Mr. Morrison, now 32. “I had people working for me, so I had to learn staffing. You learn organization. You learn to be strategic. You learn about inventory. You learn how to keep the flow of your business going. Although you sell drugs, you still want to be relatable to people. I was nice to my clients. I took them out to lunch.” I reveal my successes & failures in an exclusive chat with RealEstate.com. In what is probably the most thorough interview I have given to the press, we cover a wide swath of topics from my not-so-glamorous career before real estate, why agents are insecure, how web/tech trends have shifted in the past 3 yrs, and most importantly what I would tell a younger Herman.
