Unsolicited Faxes

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with J. Luis Properties, Inc.

Please, I don’t know how to put this or even start this thread. Maybe I just want to get the word out that sending unsolicited faxes is not good marketing! I received a fax from a Broker promoting some sort of open house in a subdivision I have listings in. It was one of those deals where she put together all the different services and was trying to put together some sort of package deal. Worse yet she wanted a 25% referral fee if the buyer was procured using this open house set up. She has been in business since 1993. I couldn’t believe it. Anyone ever have a similar experience, I’m talking post internet days not back when faxes were only found in the Pentagon.

Noel, Is this the post you wanted to pull??  I know some people here in AR have erased posts before, but I don't see why, unless they are offensive....so my opinion is to leave it.

As for the faxes.  If this lady is soliciting business via fax, she should include a number on the bottom of the fax to be removed from her list.  If this is not the case, call her broker.  The same rule for the "do not call list" applies to faxes.  The only faxes I send out is to brokers and agents advertising brokers opens in the area.  I've never had a similar experience though.
