These are just some of the internet sites that I use when I advertise my listings. Some are sites I pay for and maintain, and others are sites that I have discovered over the years.
Keep in mind that many of these also broadcast my ads to even more sites. For example, when I place an ad on The Real Estate Book site, it also will appear on the Lycos, Oodle, and the Bob Villa websites.
Do not be confused. If you ask most real estate agents, they will say that they DO have a webpage or advertise on the web. However, look carefully and see if it goes beyond just a basic page that most brokers offer their agents. Or a site that automatically pulls information from the Multiple Listing Service. As you can see by just my home page, I offer a LOT more useful information and sites for my customers and visitors. And my listings are enhanced with text descriptions, slideshows, and additional pictures! Add to that the 40+ other sites I use and you will see that I have a powerful tool with which I can market your home effectively to the public. Let's face it, If buyers cannot find your home and don't know it is for sale, they cannot buy it! It is my impression that I am one of the few agents in our area that does as much internet work as I do.
It is estimated that 80+ percent of home buyers begin their searches on the Internet! So being an expert in this regard is extremely important to home sellers. Signs and print ads are no longer the effective advertising tools they once were. I take pride in the work that I have done in this area and it would be a pleasure to show you what I can do for you on the world wide web!
