      <title>A new type of Real Estate website - www.RealEstateLeadsIn.com</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Welcome Real Estate Agent!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you&amp;rsquo;ve been a real estate practitioner for more than a few years, than you know that the Internet has changed everything.  Ostensibly, if you are not closing an increasing percentage of your business from an Internet lead, you are migrating toward obsolescence.  At the very least a substantial portion of potential commissions are being lost.  No one likes to hear that, but consumer behavior is what it is.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Simply put, 90% of all home shoppers are using the Internet not only to find houses, but cities, opportunities, agents, property tax information and much more.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We have put together a winning formula to consistently bring buyers (investors and occupiers alike) together with area experts, e.g. licensed agents who can help them.  Please acquaint yourself with &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.realestateleadsin.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;www.RealEstateLeadsIn.com&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; to learn more.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>Asbestos, and Mesothelioma awareness</title>
      <description>&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.asbestos.com/images/asbestos_house_diagram.gif&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.asbestos.com/images/asbestos_house_diagram.gif&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; style=&quot;margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 403px; height: 443px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The path to home ownership is an exciting time for you and your family, but one which requires many additional responsibilities and things to consider. It may not be completely clear, but the first steps in the home buying process are important to the success and enjoyment during this process.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

When embarking in the home buying process, there are many things to consider. Many new homes may need to be remodeled or repaired. Having the assistance of experienced and knowledgeable &lt;a href=&quot;http://therelocationprofessionals.com/&quot;&gt;relocation professionals&lt;/a&gt; can make this process smooth and stress free!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Asbestos&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

An older prominent building material that has plagued homeowners is asbestos. Commonly used to insulate pipes, roofs, floors and walls, homes built after 1980 could still harvest asbestos or other environmental defected insulation methods. Asbestos is a form of insulation which is swiftly becoming obsolete because of environmental awareness and new protocols.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

The use of this fibrous mineral became widespread due to the variety of industries such as chemical plants, paper mills, shipyards and oil refiners used the material because of its fire resistant and ultra durable qualities.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

The inhalation of asbestos can cause a rare, but severe lung ailment known as &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.asbestos.com/mesothelioma/malignant/&quot;&gt;malignant mesothelioma&lt;/a&gt;. Treatment has varied effects on victims because current research indicates it can take up to 20 to 50 years for this illness to develop. The amount of incidents in relation to the asbestos scandal has lead to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.asbestos.com/mesothelioma-lawyer/&quot;&gt;mesothelioma lawyers&lt;/a&gt; protecting and advocating victim rights. Millions of people have been wrongfully exposed for financial gain. Though a cure does not exist, options such as radiation, chemotherapy and surgery may be available to patients to battle the disease.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;
Healthy Tips &amp; Advice&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Prior to moving into your new home or apartment, identify whether or not asbestos materials are present. Sometimes the best action is no action at all in regards to dealing with asbestos. Experts will advise to leave it un-disturbed, as disturbing the material can cause its fibers to be broken down and released into the air. If you believe that your home contains asbestos, a home inspection could be extremely important for safety, health and investment reasons.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

If removal is necessary, it should be performed by a licensed abatement contractor who is trained and licensed to deal with hazardous materials. Schools, places of work and other public locations must also be removed by professionals. The Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation has further standards and guidelines in the removal of asbestos for home and business owners.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Homeowners Going &lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(0, 153, 0);&quot;&gt;Green&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Once the area is asbestos free, environmentally sustainable materials should be considered including cotton fiber, cellulose and lcynene.  Cotton fiber is becoming a favorite insulation method and studies show it can reduce energy costs by 25 percent annually. Made from recycled batted material, it is then treated to be fireproof. These green options have the same beneficial qualities as asbestos, minus the health deteriorating and toxic components.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

A catalyst for homes, industries, schools, universities and business, the incredible diversity of enterprises is driven by a common bound to move to a green lifestyle.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Implementing green methods of building can have positive environmental, health and economic benefits. These include: 1) Conservation of natural resources, 2) enhance air quality, 3) protect Eco systems, 4) energy sustainability, 5) increase property value,6) improve quality of life, 7) improvement of pulmonary and cardiac health and 7) Reduction of waste.</description>

      <title>Real Estate Contacts - The Process</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Since we opened the doors back in 2002 Realtors have been asking us how exactly can our program help them boost their business. We are able to send you potential home buyers on a state-2-state level, that you would normally never be in contact in your local area. With over 1,000 city websites and our national website, we capture Relocation Leads from all across the country and even people relocating from Canada. In an internet sense; we are global.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;By utilizing our city website people more times than not find out of our websites organically and paid-positioning by typing in various relocation city terms. Our network has over 500,000 indexed webpages, which gives us a lot of internet real estate that allows relocating families to easily find information. Once a family has reviewed the information in regards to a specific city and/or area 1 out of 26 will complete our form and request further relocation information.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Call us at &lt;strong&gt;(800) 900-2807&lt;/strong&gt; to learn how you can close homes with our contacts.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Utah Relocation - Relocating to a city in Utah?</title>
      <description>&lt;h2&gt;&lt;center&gt;Have you ever thought about Relocating to Utah?&lt;/center&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;


&lt;p&gt;
&lt;i&gt;Utah is one of America's hottest relocation destinations&lt;/i&gt;.  Newcomers are moving to Utah in record numbers.  Relocating families move to Utah for its close-knit communities and incredibly high quality of life.  Relocating professionals choose Utah for the state's strong economy and significant employment.  Thanks to this, Utah currently boasts one of the strongest &lt;b&gt;real estate markets&lt;/b&gt; in the nation.  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
Utah relocation has largely revolved around its major cities. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.provo-utah-relocation.com&quot;&gt;Provo&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.salt-lake-city-living.com&quot;&gt;Salt Lake City&lt;/a&gt; have both seen a powerful influx in population. This has proven to be a boost for satellite cities and suburban areas as well. Relocating to Ogden has become a prominent trend. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.layton-utah-living.com&quot;&gt;Layton&lt;/a&gt;, Utah is another satellite city that has seen a rise in population. And the suburb of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bountiful-utah-relocation.com&quot;&gt;Bountiful&lt;/a&gt; is a very fashionable relocation destination.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
Of course, not all newcomers want to live in or around a major city-center.  Relocation information for Utah shows that &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.st-george-utah-living.com&quot;&gt;St. George&lt;/a&gt; has dramatically increased in popularity over the past decade.  &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;St. George's real estate market&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt; is incredibly healthy, with home owners here experiencing some of the strongest appreciation rates in the state.  Utah home buyers find an incredible variety of real estate options in Utah, ranging from cozy starter homes to stunning custom estates. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;


The world-class resort town of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.parkcity-utah-living.com&quot;&gt;Park City&lt;/a&gt; is another chic relocation destination.  Relocating families are also choosing Utah's warm and welcoming smaller towns.  Relocation request for towns like &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cedar-city-utah-relocation.com&quot;&gt;Cedar City&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.logan-utah-relocation.com&quot;&gt;Logan&lt;/a&gt; continue to pour in.  If you are relocating to Utah, we have an abundance of relocation information to help you approach your move with confidence.  Our Utah relocation packages are packed with information about these and other communities, including up-to-date information about Utah real estate.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>City Real Estate Picture DVD - Pictures to DVD Service for Real Estate Agents</title>
      <description>&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.PixonDVD.com&quot;&gt;www.Pixondvd.com&lt;/a&gt; is a &lt;b&gt;Pictures to DVD Service&lt;/b&gt; that is owned by &lt;a href=&quot;http://pixondvd.com/about.php&quot;&gt;Ginger McCool&lt;/a&gt; whom is a single parent of a disabled child. She started her Pictures to DVD website in 2005 from advice of her friend who was diagnosed with leukemia. She created a Picture DVD for her husband that he said was the best gift he could ever receive. He kept the DVD to this day, and plays the Picture DVD every year to remember her after she passed away.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

After only 4 years of creating these beautiful Picture DVD's, Ginger has gained popularity and momentum due to her excellent customer satisfaction rating. With hundreds of customer's Ginger has yet to have a negative review on her service, and includes many references and testimonials of her work including:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Mark in Norman, Oklahoma: &lt;b&gt;&quot;This was so beautiful! Thanks so much for rushing this overnight, it came just in time. I'm sorry about rushing this, but I had to make sure if was here before my fathers birthday.&quot;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Mary in Naples, Florida: &lt;b&gt;&quot;Ginger I just got the DVD and its great. I just talked to my sister and she wants to purchase a DVD. Plus she is interested in purchasing your $120.00 package for her moms birthday!&quot;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Sandy in Huntington Beach, California: &lt;b&gt;&quot;We just watched the DVD and its AWESOME! Thanks so much for rushing this. I'm gonna tell my sisters about your service.&quot;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Jessivca in Albuquerque, New Mexico: &lt;b&gt;&quot;I'm not a person who usually writes testimonials, but this was a special case. I truly recommend purchasing a Picture DVD from Ginger right away! You'll be crazy not to!&quot;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Jason in Toronto, Canada: &lt;b&gt;&quot;You completely turned me around and I completely LOVE your service! Thank you so much for making my Grandpas Father's Day a day the entire family will remember forever!&quot;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Samantha in The Woodlands, Texas: &lt;b&gt;&quot;I can't believe it! This is better than I thought it would turn out. Its like you read my mind. I'm so glad I found your website!!!!!&quot;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Carl in Summerville, South Carolina: &lt;b&gt;&quot;Ginger my Dad hasn't smiled this big in many years. You truly made this Father's Day a day to remember!&quot;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;center&gt;
&lt;hr&gt;
&lt;/center&gt;

Another testimate to Ginger's quality of work is most of her customers are repeat customers. This is due to Ginger truly &lt;b&gt;&quot;putting her heart into her work&quot;&lt;/b&gt;, and &lt;b&gt;&quot;giving it the quality and care as if the DVD was personally for herself.&quot;&lt;/b&gt; Ginger's &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.PixonDVD.com&quot;&gt;www.Pixondvd.com&lt;/a&gt; also receives a lot of word of mouth customers as people &lt;b&gt;&quot;simply love her work!&quot;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

The only downside of this rosy picture is since Ginger is a single mother, it's very hard for her to attract new customers by advertising. This is why Ginger focuses so hard on repeat customers and word of mouth. If you have been intrigued by her story, or want to purchase the best unique gift idea of 2009... go on over to www.PixonDVD.com. Or better yet give Ginger a call at &lt;b&gt;(619) 749-6683&lt;/b&gt;, or email her at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.pixondvd.com/contact.php&quot;&gt;http://www.pixondvd.com/contact.php&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Realtors Ginger could also create you a customized City Picture DVD. Simply send her pictures you have taken of your city (like Scottsdale, Phoenix, etc...) and she'll put them to music on a customized DVD. It's a great way to show your potential home buyers the city they want to move to. She'll even put in your photo and contact information on the DVD Case/Cover for FREE!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Ginger Vows:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Free Photo Scanning - We do NOT charge for any scanning.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Free Covers - Each DVD comes with its very own customized cover.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Free Labels -  Each DVD comes with its very own customized DVD label.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Customer Satisfaction - We have never had a customer complaint... honest!&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A very quick 7-10 Business Day Turn-Around!&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Lastly - Quality and Care. We do put our hearts into this!&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

Lastly all work is down in Lakeside, California. No out sourcing of any kind, and the work is 100% done by Ginger McCool! Kindly post any comments you may have, we love to hear what you think about her work.</description>

      <title>Internet Lead Generation - What to do next?</title>
      <description>&lt;center&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.eleadmarketing.com&quot;&gt;www.eLeadMarketing.com&lt;/a&gt; - &quot;Bringing Families and Realtors Together!&quot;
&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
After more than a decade of working on Internet marketing for real estate agents, we've learned what works best.  We understand that you are the &lt;b&gt;&quot;home sales expert&quot;&lt;/b&gt;, but when it comes to internet &#8211;generated relocation leads we've gained an in depth understanding of how to approach these leads and get the maximum results!

&lt;/p&gt;
 
&lt;p&gt;
You should attempt to contact them by phone before emailing or mailing anything.  In order for your email to be read and acted upon, it should be something they are looking for. If phone contact cannot be made, you may leave a message referring to the email or mail that you will be sending.
&lt;/p&gt;
 
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;b&gt;The initial phone call should focus on the prospective client's needs&lt;/b&gt;.  The first impression is everlasting; let it be a good one.  Asking intelligent questions about their needs and concerns is a great place to start.  You do not want to focus on the fact that you are a real estate agent.   This is also a great way to qualify each prospect.
&lt;/p&gt;
 
&lt;p&gt;
During the initial contact, you want to establish rapport and let them know that you are a &quot;relocation expert&quot; who is available to provide information for them.  You should be able to determine in the first contact what their time frame for moving is, as well as whether or not they plan to buy or rent.  This issue may not be set in stone, so please do not discard someone who indicates that they prefer to rent.  Make a friend because friends refer business to friends.
&lt;/p&gt;
 
&lt;p&gt;
If your prospect isn't planning to move for more than 6 months, put them on a drip campaign.  Keep them abreast of what is happening in the market place once a month or so (via email).

&lt;/p&gt;
 
&lt;p&gt;
In addition, you'll want to find out if they have a home to sell before they leave.  If they do have a home to sell and have not hired an agent, you may offer assistance in getting them a great agent to represent them.  A reverse listing referral fee is always a nice way to make some extra commission.
&lt;/p&gt;
 
&lt;p&gt;
If you are in the business for the long-haul, relocation leads can be enormously profitable.  Quite often, when one family relocates another one follows, e.g. Grandparents, siblings, friends, employees.
&lt;/p&gt;
 
&lt;p&gt;
On a final note; stay organized. It is crucial that it be you who is meeting them the day they fly in to look at properties. You will want to track relocation dates, what information was sent to them and so on.  It is essential to begin building the relationship as soon as you can no matter what their time frame.

Texas is in the south-central part of the United States of America. It is considered to form part of the U.S. South and also part of the U.S. Southwest. Some regions of Texas are associated with the South more than the Southwest, (primarily East Texas), while other regions share more similarities with the Southwest than the south (primarily West Texas and South Texas).&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;


Texas is so large in its east-west expanse that El Paso, in the western corner of the state, is closer to San Diego, California than to Beaumont, near the Louisiana state line; Beaumont, in turn, is closer to Jacksonville, Florida than it is to El Paso. Also, Texarkana, in the northeastern corner of the state, is closer to Chicago, Illinois than it is to El Paso. The north-south expanse is similarly impressive; Dalhart, in the northwestern corner of the state, is closer to the state capitals of Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Wyoming than it is to Austin, its own state capital.To approach your move to Texas with as much information as possible, simply request one of our free relocation packets today! &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

In just one month (on Google alone) over 1,220 pages have been indexed at a ratio of 40 new pages being indexed per day.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our website is completely SEOized, and has very strong backlink positioning from various Realtor Network websites including &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;ActiveRain, WannaNetwork, Zolve&lt;/span&gt;, and other Relocation Network Forums and/or Blogs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;One example is recently a Realtor signed up on our website and posted their first blog post. In less than two days it will indexed on Google and is currently &lt;strong&gt;ranked #4&lt;/strong&gt; for &lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&quot;relocating to logan utah&quot;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. Which now this Realtor has a strong back link with relevant content to his website.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.Relo-Info-Exchange.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;www.Relo-Info-Exchange.com&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; was created because relocating families, simply have... &lt;strong&gt;relocation questions&lt;/strong&gt;. On our website these relocating families can ask questions, and Realtors/Mortgage/Insurance/Businesses can answer the questions and possibly &lt;em&gt;start communication with these moving families&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Also by doing this, you are able to freely advertise your website and/or service thus increasing your relevant back links and increasing your chances of indexed pages.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We encourage everyone to check out our website, sign up (for free) and utilize this free service. Currently we are seeing 33 new member per day signing up, and this will start to double very soon! Some of these people do want to contact Realtors.... let this be you!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kindly reply below with your thoughts and ideas. We love feedback and will consider all positive steps to improve our website!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>Families are buying foreclosures in Phoenix and Las Vegas</title>
      <description>Even through this Real Estate downward spin, we are still seeing an increased number of families relocating to cities such as: Phoenix, Las Vegas, Fort Collins, DFW, etc&#8230; Still the #1 drive is jobs, and that cannot be disputed. Although another big reason for relocation that started in 2008, was due to great foreclosure prices. Cities such as Phoenix, and Las Vegas have both seem dramatic drops in real estate prices, which is driving the people to purchase real etate in those cities.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

If you are not working with families whom want to purchase foreclosed homes, you are leaving a huge chunk of money on the table. One of the top discussions right now on RealTown and ActiveRain is in regards to boosting your business with foreclosures.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Call us at &lt;b&gt;(800) 900-2807&lt;/b&gt; to learn how we can bring you 10 - 25 potential home buyers every month. Or visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.eLeadMarketing.com&quot;&gt;www.eLeadMarketing.com&lt;/a&gt; for more information.

      <title>Dallas - Fort Worth... it's now time to buy</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;It's definitely starting to be the time when buying in the Fort Worth - Dallas area is the correct thing to do. We have seen a large increase in people moving to the DFW area, which will incrase through the spring and into summer months.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.Dallas-Living.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;www.Dallas-Living.com&lt;/a&gt; - &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.Fort-Worth-TX-Living.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;www.Fort-Worth-TX-Living.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&quot;Local housing experts say 2009 may be sluggish, but with interest rates at historic lows and looming inflation in 2010 and 2011, it&amp;rsquo;s time to buy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A panel of five residential industry leaders shared their analysis and forecasts of the Dallas-Fort Worth housing market at the Residential Real Estate Forum held at the Fort Worth Convention Center. Though many of the experts had different theories as to how government efforts to improve the nation&amp;rsquo;s declining housing market are faring, all said they had seen indicators of a strengthening economy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The speakers included: Robert Gleason, director of governmental affairs for the Greater Fort Worth Association of Realtors; John V. Duca, vice president and senior policy adviser at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas; Ted Wilson, principal at Residential Strategies Inc.; Dr. Mark Dotzour, chief economist and director of research for the Real Estate Center at Texas A&amp;amp;M University; and Arthur Sterbcow, president of Latter &amp;amp; Blum Realtors in New Orleans.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>The Free Lead Center - Why is it taking off?</title>
      <description>&lt;b&gt;What is the Free Lead Center, and how will it benefit me?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;b&gt;The Relocation Exchange&lt;/b&gt; (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.relo-info-exchange.com/forum/vbay.php&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Free Lead Center&lt;/a&gt;) is a new concept that we came up with on April 22nd, 2009. Over the course of a month our parent company (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.erelocationprofessionals.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;The Relocation Professionals&lt;/a&gt;), receive between &lt;i&gt;12,000 - 15,500 relocation requests per month&lt;/i&gt;. Unfortunately due to such a high demand for relocation assistance we are not able to distribute all these leads out due to lack of a Realtor in every single city. Therefore we have decided to hand out these &lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Exclusive, Fresh, Scrubbed leads out for free&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;br&gt;

&lt;br&gt;
We as a company spend a lot of time and money to have potential moving families and individuals find our websites. And there is nothing worse than having a person find your website, submit their information, and receive no feedback.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
The chief benefit to you as a Realtor is you will be able to receive free leads. But these are not your typical loose-end leads. Each lead is Exclusive, Scrubbed, and Fresh (within a few days). We only submit lead to our Free Lead Center that have shown interest in relocating, and most leads will have comments in regards to purchasing real estate.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
This also gives you an example of some of the leads you could be receiving from our company The Relocation Professionals. So if you receive good leads with our free service, it would be more beneficial to become an exclusive agent with our parent company and receive 12 - 20 of these leads per month.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;I am confused... how do people find your website?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;
For starters, we own over 1,000 City Informational Websites. Additionally we own and maintain 15 blogs, 6 forums, a national job search website, along with &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.activerain.com/erelopro&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;ActiveRain&lt;/a&gt;, FaceBook, &lt;a href=&quot;http://realtyleads.tumblr.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Tumblr&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href=&quot;http://twitter.com/FreeRelocation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Twitter&lt;/a&gt; accounts. More times than not if a person is looking for relocation information they will find one of our websites. Over time 1 out of 18 people will submit there information to further request a Relocation Specialist contact them. Once this information is submitted, we verify the information looks correct and delete any bogus information. Plus we match up the contact information to the Free411.com Database to try to either assure the phone number is valid, and/or at times find a secondary contact number. Once the information is scrubbed, we then send it out exclusively to our agent in that city.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
In times where we have no Realtor in a particular city, we will submit that information to our Free Lead Center on this website. Where then a Realtor is able to bid for the lead.. the highest bidder agrees to purchase the lead.&lt;br&gt;

&lt;br&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;What if they are not purchasing a home now?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;
Not all of these people will be purchasing a home, but that happens with all leads. If you expect every single lead to purchase a home, we are afraid you are sorely mistaken. If every lead bought, there would be no housing problems in the United States whatsoever. Some people strictly want information in regards to your city. Other people want to rent first, then own. And some of these people do want to purchase a home now, or possibly a few months down the road.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
What these leads allow you to do is open the door to new contacts. That in any other case you would possibly not ever be able to get in touch with. A lot of these leads are people whom are in the early the middle stages of relocation. Therefore in a lot of cases you will be the first person to get in contact with them in regards to their move and possibly home buying.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;What do I need to do, to be able to get these leads?&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;&lt;div&gt;First of all, you need to be a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.relo-info-exchange.com/forum/register.php&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;registered&lt;/a&gt; member. Secondly, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.relo-info-exchange.com/forum/vbay.php&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;simply click on this link&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt; to access the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.relo-info-exchange.com/forum/vbay.php&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Free Lead Center&lt;/a&gt;. Before you are able to accept a lead, you must first enter your contact information with our system. Thirdly, bid on the lead and if you enter the highest amount... you get the lead!&lt;br&gt;

      <title>Why Realtors choose our Home Buyer Leads</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;For today&amp;rsquo;s real estate agent there are a million different ways to spend money on getting their name out into the public eye. After speaking to about 2 thousand real estate agents about some of the things they have tried. We have developed an idea on how to have the relocating home buyer find us and be willing to part with their personal contact information in an effort to get some help.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There are really only 2 fundamental ways to advertise:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Billboards, Newspapers, Door hangers, Mailers, Bus-Stop Benches, Shopping Carts, Television, and Radio&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Leads sent to you directly&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the first instance, most people using those techniques reported that they became recognized by strangers in their local area (fame), but failed to close any business as a result.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the second instance, there was one clear advantage in that a lead (a potential sale) was delivered to them.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
