Marketing is how you communicate to customers and potential customers what you're all about. How important is marketing?

If you've seen the Terminator then it should be apparent just how important marketing is. A good marketer never lies. A marketer selects the facts that are relevant and uses them to put his product in the best light.

One of the reasons a good realtor is an important asset when you're seeking a new home is because a knowledgeable realtor might have an understanding or information that might not be readily apparent to you. As in the Mary Poppins example, home buyers sometimes don't have a full picture of an area or a neighborhood and they are scared by aspects of a neighborhood that they should embrace rather than fear.

The truth is a skilled marketer can arrange facts to give a powerful impression that isn't really reflective of reality. But a good marketer only uses his powers for good and not for evil.

That is to say that a marketer should always consider the public's best interests when marketing a property. The trouble is not all marketers are good and many marketers are unskilled. That's why a realtor is so important when you're searching for a new home. As a trusted expert, the realtor knows where reality lies and can help you sort out marketing enticements from marketing facts.
