Everything’s all right until something goes wrong. You child takes a bad fall and broken bone tears through the flesh and skin. A jet engine on your vacation flight flames out. You took the wrong road in a driving rain and now you’re up to your hubcaps in mud.
Jay Thompson is a man out of Kipling, and I can imagine him in each one of those stories. Calmly setting and splinting a bone, then racing to the hospital. Exuding quiet confidence as he explains why the plane can fly safely on three jets. The man owns a Jeep, and I’d bet a large dollar he knows how to extract your sedan from the mud.
Jay is a man possessed of an unprepossessing competence, a man’s man who just gets in there and gets the job done. I’ve worked with him on half-a-dozen projects, and it has always made me proud to set my shoulder beside his.
And so I am very proud to announce that Jay is joining us today as a contributor to BloodhoundBlog:
Want to find Jay Thompson? Just Google for “Phoenix real estate” — he’s above the fold. Jay is a legend among real estate webloggers, but he’s also an incipient broker, a confirmed desert rat and a committed family man.
Make him feel welcome, if you would. He won’t even have to try to make you feel safe.

Jay was Bloodhound before it was cool. Welcome PREG
Nice addition. Jay’s been above the fold and fray since the beginning.
Jay, will be a great asset, love to read and learn from him. Good job.
I have been enjoying Jay’s posts on his other blog sites - you all know what they are! - and I really look forward to seeing his wisdom and insights on Bloodhound!
Welcome, Jay!
Cool…Jay will be a great addition to goup.
Thanks folks. I am humbled and honored to be running with the pack. There are some brilliant minds, and even more brilliant writers here. I shall endeavor to add something of value (and increase my Latin vocabulary beyond its current limit of E pluribus unum, caveat emptor and carpe diem).
I’ve always thought Jay should be a contributor. Great pick, Greg.
Welcome, Jay! No, make that a special welcome, Jay. A very special welcome, Jay. Glad you are here.
Whaddya mean “Jay is joining us today”? Jay has always been a Bloodhound, and you’ll never convince me otherwise.
Miss a few days, you might miss a lot…
I remember when Jay Thompson, The Phoenix Real Estate Guy , took a few days off to go to Mexico and posted…
[...] Late last week, Greg Swann announced that I had joined the cadre of authors at Bloodhound Blog. Since that announcement, I’ve made two posts on Bloodhound, and with each one comes an email or two from someone asking me why I would contribute to another Phoenix real estate blog. “Joining the competition” as someone put it.
