BIOGRAPHY BUILDING: "The Poet of Property" NY Times Article

New York Times Real Estate Section, May 24 has a great article about a woman who creates Bios for realtors. Barbara Corcoran had found her years ago. Many of the Corcoran agents still seem to use her work. "Valerie Haboush specializes in...those tantalizing, excitement packed agent biographies." I went into the Corcoran agent bios on their website. They are certainly more interesting and well written than most.

A few are in the first person. Most are in third person. Which do you find works best for a biography? Just curious!

Your thoughts? Do you think members of the public read the bios anyway?

Very interesting...am going to check this out. Anything that makes an agent more "personalized" is a good idea, today. People make decisions before a face to face meeting, in this internet marketing world we inhabit.

Personally I don't like a third person bio... for a real estate agent especially in this day and age. I will have to look at the Corcoran site.... or sites. And Google for the NY Times article you mention.
