Who's got the best blog about Baltimore real estate?

Zillow is holding a "best real estate blog" contest, and the Real Estate Wonk is one of the nominees for Baltimore. Keen!

The voting -- already underway -- runs through 3 p.m. on Aug. 11, and you can vote once per day. So "vote early, vote often" actually applies here.

I hope you like this blog enough to vote for it, but do go vote for your favorite whichever it is. The other nominees are the Baltimore Blog, Baltimore Grows, Baltimore Real Estate Investing Blog, the Hannon Realty Group's blog, the Harriett Wasserman Team blog, Hibanism, Maryland Housing Blog, the Metro Baltimore Real Estate Blog and Realtor Marney Kirk's blog.

Clicking on the banner will take you to the poll. Thanks, all.

Jamie, thanks for mentioning us. I knew I had been nominated but I didn't know the other candidates.

If I wasn't nominated I would surely vote for you!

Pat, sure thing -- I emailed the button coding to you.

Ned, glad to hear it!

Jamie, you got my vote. Thanks for all your work.

Just one note - the button took me to the local Zillow page with sale listings, I had to scroll way down to locate the poll button on the right-hand side. It could be just my browser though...

Thanks, Jelena!

The poll pops up over the Baltimore map once the page is fully loaded, but that can take a while.
