Is This Real Estate Copywriter Destined to be an Agent?

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with The Real Estate Copywriter

Good question. You see, I've been writing real estate copy for a few years now. It's not my ONLY industry, but it's certainly one of my favorites. Agent sites, property sites, domestic, international - I've certainly covered a lot of ground with my copy.

One place this is really true is my own relocation website: Relocate Clayton. It's all about moving to Clayton, NC and life there. Mostly it's a bunch of blog posts and pages, but it's come a long way. it's even got a job board specifically for Clayton, NC jobs.

I can hear some of you now...What? You have a relocation site? But, but, you're not...an agent!

I know. Should I be? Maybe not in this economy, but I have to tell you, I've flexed my copywriting and SEO skills to get myself on page 1 of Google's results for some sweet Clayton, NC real estate terms terms that some agents might be interested in. I was at a non-real estate networking event a few weeks ago and certainly got some interest up when people found out I was THAT guy.

Maybe one day I'll get my license. I'm sure I could make a decent living off referrals, right? I mean, I really don't have time for showings and all that - I'm too busy writing copy for agent sites and my own relocation site.

The site started out as a pet project. I fed it a little and it's grown...and matured quite well. Now I'm not sure whether to keep feeding it, or to get my license and let it feed ME!

Thoughts?
