In today's ever changing market, I find it even more important to be the best I can possibly be. I tend to do all that I can to get my listings out there for the world to see. If I can attract that one buyer that just happens to be the person that thinks my listing is the perfect property for them, I feel I'm doing my job. Well, at least part of it.
When I list a property, you'll find it everywhere on the net. Mostly syndicated, but I have several sites I place them on myself. Problem is, our MLS doesn't allow the feed of the comments section. With most of the syndicated sites, Realtor.com included, all the potential person sees is a few pics and very basic information. Unless you pay a phenomenal fee to add your own information.
I have had several buyer clients that have asked for more information on properties they have seen on realtor.com. This makes me wonder if I'm missing out because I have opted to not cough up the dough to add more information to my own listings and have them branded.
I know there are several REALTORs(R) here in the rain that use this site as a tool in your marketing plan. Is it worth it? Have you noticed an increase in the sales of your listings (whether by you or another agent) because of this site? Strangely enough, I'm not that concerned about getting leads from the sites I use. Just selling my listings. I'm on a pretty tight budget this year, but want to get these properties sold.
