Aaron Lewis had a plan that included selecting a wealthy real estate agent, luring her to a remote location, and kidnapping her for ransom.

Happy Halloween; naja wir sind ein wenig spät dran. Dennoch wollten wir eine Folge mit gruseligen Fällen für euch aufnehmen. Wie immer haben wir euch zwei spannenden Verbrechen mitgebracht. Fall 1: Beverly Carter bekommt irgendwie alles hin. Sie hat eine tolle Familie, ein erfülltes Leben und ist erfolgreich im Job. In ihrem Beruf als Maklerin begleitet sie nur ein ständiges Unbehagen. Im Dunkeln allein mit mit Fremden in leerstehenden Häusern zu sein, bereitet ihr irgendwie ein mulmiges Gefühl. Als sie eines Abends nicht nach Hause kommt, ist ihre größte Angst wohl wahr geworden. Fall 2: Emma alias RagDoll lebt mit ihrer Familie in Farmville, Virgina. Als Tochter eines Pastors ist sie christlich aufgewachsen, mit steigendem Alter fängt sie allerdings an zu rebellieren. Via MySpace trifft die 16 jährige auf Syko Sam, der sie auf eine Reise in die Horrorcore Szene mitnimmt. Doch als aus einem Flirt im Internet eine Beziehung im Internet wird, ist keiner darauf vorbereitet, wie die Geschichte von RagDoll und Syko Sam ausgehen sollte.

Hi, Crime Fam, and welcome back to week 68! This week Bailey takes us to Arkansas for the maddening murder of Beverly Carter, a Realtor who was just trying to satisfy some new clients who wanted one of her listings. Beverly's killers claimed they never meant to hurt her, but when you hear the story, you probably won't believe that any more than we do. Her family set up a foundation in Beverly's name to help Realtors safer when showing houses. To access educational materials related to safety and situational security for Realtors and other people who make 'house calls', please visit https://beverlycarterfoundation.org/Beth tells the story of Jayde Logan of Newport, South Wales.

This person attacked Jayde with a hammer in the street, in front of many people, leaving her with scars, headaches, and understandable mental trauma. But Jayde lived, healed, has returned to living her life, and after the head injuries she received, that's a wonder in and of itself.

We complete Real Estate Agent safety month with this episode.  Today we examine the dreadful case of the Beverly Carter kidnaping and murder.   Beverly was a real estate agent, mother and wife. She was living and working near Little Rock, Arkansas when she was attacked, abducted and murder by a husband and wife criminal team at a real estate showing.   The attack was pre-planned and specifically targeted Beverly because "she was a woman and a rich, real estate agent who works alone." Arkansas Real Estate Commission, Doyle Yates, joins Dishin' Dirt to discuss the facts of the case, the search for Beverly and the arrest and prosecution of the assailants. Doyle also discusses what real estate agents have learned about safety as well as Arkansas's new agent safety requirements.

Beverly Carter was one of the top real estate agents in Little Rock, Arkansas. She loved her job, but over the past several years crime against real estate agents had been rising, and she was taking her safety seriously. She never went to a showing without letting her husband, Carl, know where she'd be, and she even had a secret code with the other agents in the office so they could let each other know if they were in trouble. But even with the precautions she took, one night, Beverly never came home from a showing. When Carl went to the property to look for her, he found her car with her purse still in the front seat, but no sign of Beverly anywhere. Learn more about your ad choices.

Beverly Carter was one of the top real estate agents in the state of Arkansas, and ever since there'd been a wave of rising crime against real estate agents, she'd taken safety seriously. She always made sure her husband, Carl, knew where she was if she was showing a property, and she'd even come up with a code word to use with her fellow real estate agents if any of them felt like they were in danger. On the night of September 25, 2014, Beverly was showing a house to a couple that claimed to be relocating from out of state. The appointment was a 6, but when Beverly still wasn't home at 8:45, her husband Carl started to panic. He drove over to the property she was showing to find her car parked in the driveway with her purse inside, but no sign of Beverly anywhere.

 THE REAL ESTATE SESSIONS PODCAST Episode 303:  Host: BILL RISSER Guest: JAY THOMPSON In this episode, Jay Thompson, my guest, was the first guest to be interviewed at the beginning of the podcast in 2015. Jay is a "retired" Real Estate agent and broker currently based in Texas. In this episode, I sit with Jay as we reminisce on some points from the first episode of the podcast, discuss highlights from Jay's selective retirement, and note significant developments in recent times in the Real Estate industry. Top Takeaways: "I really think it's super important for future retirees ...you've still got to stay busy." - [Jay Thompson] "Real Estate agents will be around in some form, I think, forever." - [Jay Thompson] "It's not customer service that matters; it's customer experience; you need to provide a great customer experience." - [Jay Thompson] Episode Highlights: [00:18] Intro [00:56] Meet today's guest, Jay Thompson. [04:00] Jay's journey into Real Estate till retirement. [17:56] Have you been surprised by any feature of retirement? [21:02] The Beverly Carter Foundation. [26:51] Discussing Zillow's decision to stop the iBuyer program. [32:30] About eXp Realty. [42:01] What should we anticipate in Real Estate? [47:35] Jay's advice to new agents. [50:58] Connect with Jay. [52:19] Outro Episode Notes: Jay was the first guest I interviewed on the podcast, in https://therealestatesessions.com/episodes/episode-1-jay-thompson-zillow-group (episode one on August 31st, 2015). He was an agent and a broker who worked for Zillow for 6.5 years and then retired in July 2018. Selective retirement is a more practical term for Jay than retirement because although he has no regular job, he gets to pick and choose the work he wants to do. However, the experience of working with people and being a part of something is significantly less with retirement, so a conscious effort has to be made towards it. Jay retired to the gulf coast somewhere in Texas during the pandemic. After retirement, Jay was surprised at how long it took him to wind down from working all his life. The Beverly Carter Foundation: The foundation is a 501c nonprofit organization created in 2014 after Beverly Carter was kidnapped. She had gone to show a home in Arkansas when she was kidnapped for ransom which went wrong after the police got involved, and the kidnappers took her life. The foundation gives safety training and awareness to realtors and other lone workers like inspectors and appraisers. To help support the foundation, http://www.beverlycarterfoundation.org/ (visit the website) and donate.  Zillow had announced that they were stopping their iBuying program and effectively would not buy any more homes for the rest of 2021. This was a shock to the Real Estate world, including Jay, who believes the company plans to take such a huge step. He also believes it is too soon for critics to cheer the demise of Zillow. About eXp Realty: Jay started Thompson Real Estate but had to merge with eXp Realty so his wife, managing it, could move full-time to Seattle. Jay learned more about the revenue share model and was intrigued by it; the equity from the merger played a significant factor in Jay's retirement. It is important to note that eXp's revenue-sharing model is different from KW's profit-sharing model. Concerning expectations in the near future, Zillow will continue in other areas of the business and will be around for a very long time. Also, the current debacle with the DOJ will result in a significant shift in the Real Estate industry; nonetheless, Real Estate agents will always be relevant. Jay's advice to new agents: Provide a superior customer experience, rather than simply customer service; customer service means you will do anything and everything to make customers happy, but that will kill you if you're not careful.

Beverly Carter was a wife, grandmother, friend and successful real estate agent when she disappeared after showing a home. After her friends and family received strange texts from her phone, they contacted police and the investigation began. Savannah examines how investigators eventually honed in on Arron Lewis as the prime suspect, a man who was a complete stranger to Beverly up until her kidnapping and murder. Arron and his wife Crystal Lowery allegedly plotted to hold Beverly for ransom money, but for still unknown reasons, Beverly was murdered, but the 2 suspects deny killing her and tried to pin it on a completely different person named Trevor.

Julene Simko called 911 in a panic. She’d just discovered her husband dead in their bed. He’d been shot in the back of the head by an intruder. She’d already grabbed a gun and fired two shots to scare off the attacker, but she feared the person was still in the house. But who could the intruder be? Julene and Jeremy’s home in rural Vermilion, Ohio, was remarkably secure. They had multiple guard dogs, a security system, and plenty of guns. Who could have gotten past all those safeguards and murdered Jeremy Simko?Then Kristin tells us about real estate agent Beverly Carter. In 2014, Beverly was the top selling and listing agent for Crye Leike Realtors. The previous year, she’d sold $12 million in real estate -- no small feat in central Arkansas. So when a man calling himself Steven Adams reached out to her about buying a new house, Beverly was all ears. Steven said that he and his wife, Crystal, were relocating to the area. They were cash buyers. That meant a quick sale for Beverly. But Beverly was cautious. She corresponded with Steven by phone and email for a few weeks. When he asked to meet her out at a rural property, she insisted that his wife Crystal meet them there, too. Crystal got on the phone and assured Beverly she’d be there. But when Beverly arrived at the home, Crystal was nowhere to be found.And now for a note about our process. For each episode, Kristin reads a bunch of articles, then spits them back out in her very limited vocabulary. Brandi copies and pastes from the best sources on the web. And sometimes Wikipedia.

It’s all over the news, nearly every day. Real estate broker murdered…real estate investor, missing, feared dead…Agent stabbed in parking lot…Real estate investors, both men and women, are in far more danger than most of us realize every day, and a single, simple decision could make or break our safety and extend – or end – our lives. The decision is not what you think it is. I’m Carole Ellis. I’ll tell you the key to saving your business – and your life, today in Episode 9.----You might be shocked to hear it, but a simple change in your business philosophy could literally save your life. Perhaps you remember Beverly Carter, the Arkansas real estate broker who was murdered over a year ago and whose (now convicted) killer said at the time he targeted her because “she was a rich broker and a woman.” Or perhaps you’ve been watching more recent media coverage of disturbing events such as the unexplained disappearance of Arizona agent and investor Sid Cranston, who left to show some properties, alone, last June and never returned or the stabbing death of a North Carolina agent who may or may not have been meeting a potential client, again alone.While it is easy to say, “You should not meet clients alone, whether you are a man or a woman,” the reality of the matter, we’ve discovered, is that real estate investors and other real estate professionals often feel undue pressure to accommodate their clients and potential clients when it comes to meeting times, locations, and circumstances. I cannot count the number of people who comment regularly on the blog that they have to, to a certain degree, rely on their faith in human nature when they are investing because they just can’t always take a companion with them. Many of our readers and listeners, men and women, report carrying guns or other forms of self-defense, but even those sometimes are not enough. Finally, just about everyone at least calls another person at this point, often in front of the client, to make it clear that someone knows their whereabouts, but the truth is that a 15-minute window, as too many families can sadly attest, is more than enough time for the damage to be done.So now that I’ve given you nightmares, let’s brighten up the scenario a little bit. In a recent interview with Colorado real estate “rockstar” Bill Twyford, who, along with his wife Dwan and his kids, have a thriving, nearly two-decades old flipping and rehabbing business that has recently culminated in a true “dream job” turning old mountain cabins into unique, luxury dream homes, I got a little bit of mountain-air wisdom about door-knocking that was so simple and yet, I’ve seen so clearly in our readers’ reports, so hard to implement, that I felt like it was imperative to share. I’m not even going to make you wait for it. I’ll tell you right now:Always look for a reason not to do the deal.Now here’s the thing: this advice is coming from one of the most detail-oriented, numbers-focused real estate coaches I have EVER met. Bill actually broke down for me in our interview (which you can see in its entirety in the REI Today Vault, by the way) just exactly, by the day, phone calls an investor flipping in an average down with median-priced houses would have to make in order to make $120,000 in the next three months. Period. Make the calls, and do the deals. But that’s actually another podcast…Anyway, because Bill still gets a LOT of his deals by door-knocking and he, his wife, and sometimes his son and daughter are all involved in the business and might be out looking for leads at some point or another, I asked Bill how they handle the growing safety concerns associated with real estate investing. He said, very simply, that they always look for a reason not to do the deal. “Here’s the thing,” he said, “if it looks like a waste of my time but it’s the only lead I’ve got, then I’m going to make a potentially bad decision because it’s my only option.” But if I’ve got ten more potential deals in the pipeline and this one looks bad – say the owner says he’ll be at the house alone, or he wants to meet after dark, or he is insistent that I meet at a certain time that I don’t want to meet, or he isn’t willing to commit to selling at a price that the local comps indicate will work – say any of these things, then that’s a serious reason to consider not doing the deal. If it’s the only deal I’ve got, then I’m going to get all emotionally invested and possibly make a bad decision and, at best, waste my time and at worst, end up in a very bad predicament. But if I’m willing to say hey, I just don’t want to do this deal because I KNOW it’s probably not going to work out, then I can be objective and not only do I keep myself safe, but I protect my business interests as well because I’m not getting emotionally involved in the deal. I’m keeping to the numbers and, if you do your numbers right, they just don’t lie.”And if you’re wondering about Bill’s numbers, then rest assured, you can get a good look at them very, very soon. Bill and I did a great interview and he exposed some really interesting mathematics that I know you can put to use right now to add zeros to your bottom line whether you’re on your first or your 500th deal.

In response to the tragic murders of Ashley Okland & Beverly Carter, over 350 agents have signed a new "Realtor Safety Pledge" as a promise to limit behaviors that might put agents in harm's way. Today, award-winning real estate coaches Tim & Julie Harris talk about what the Realtor Safety Pledge really means, how it's likely to affect the industry, and whether or not it's likely to work. Staying safe is the job of every real estate professional, and while agents applaud the concept of the Realtor Safety Pledge - created by Century 21 broker-owners Dylan de Bruin and Joe Schafbuch - they've also expressed concerns about whether taking a pledge simple opens the door for unfair (and unsafe) competition. We're going to break down how the pledge affects you, and how you can stay safe in today's real estate marketplace.
