Final thoughts
There are an abundance of ways to create an online presence, but it is extremely important to use these syndication sites. Most people start the home shopping process online, and Zillow, Trulia and Realtor.com is one of the first places consumers will look.
“Real estate websites are a very effective tool for buyers who are looking through different sites,” Macken said. “It’s easy from their home or desk at work to hop on the web and search for all different sites. Very often, many buyers have already visited the property through the net and seen the pictures.”
It takes a lot of experimentation to find out which programs and features are worth spending the money on. With that in mind, it is recommended that you get in touch with technology and especially explore the syndication sites in order to figure out which one works best for you.
“I feel that it is the responsibility of the agent to spend thorough time getting opportunities with each of the portals, ask specific questions and demand data on current traffic in areas you are looking to advertise,” Dollinger said.
I wish Realtor.com would get back in the game, especially since we as Realtor’s pay so much every year
the only problem is 80% of the bureys are working with Realtors and you will have no access to them. I think you should talk to a Realtor for a free estimate and CMA on your home. A report on your local sales and values to see what is affordable and what is not. There may be room to add the realtors fee’s on top of what you think your home will sell for.References : Was this answer helpful?
