How Much Is Too Much? I'm talking about real estate information for our potential buyers. Isn't our advertising enough? Isn't IDX searches enough? Aren't our websites doing enough? Don't you have telephones at the office, in your pocket, in your car, isn't email everywhere? And texting?
HOW MUCH IS ENOUGH?
I'm not happy about our MLS being able to launch our listings onto our Facebook pages too. Yes, I have a business page on Facebook. Will I really need it anymore? After they install the Facebook button on MLS, it will be so easy for every agent to send their listings to Facebook.
There is some information I would not want on Facebook if it were my listing or my house. What do your sellers want? Make sure you only publish the "Public" info or the public will see the agent remarks.
What is in "agent remarks"? Maybe a lockbox code? Maybe that the dog doesn't bite? Maybe the sellers personal information? Make sure when you advertise someone's property that you protect their personal information. What seller will think you did a good job if you tell the world personal things about them?
I personally try to protect my sellers in every way possible and still advertise their property aggressively. Put yourself in their shoes and think your advertising through before you click that button.
