How to find home buyers online

We're almost at the holidays my firends.  Hope you are getting prepared -- and that business is good so Santa can be generous.  Just like the unhappy person who starts thinking about changing his job when the new year comes, people think about other big changes, too.  Some of those changes include finally making that decision to relocate, retire, or list the house to sell.  Some experts think that one reason for "big change thinking" relates to the extended vacation time around the holidays -- giving people time to process thoughts.  Another reason is the heavy social networking done at this time, which influences decision-making.  Over a glass of nog, one might get a hint or even an offer about a new job.  While munching sausage balls, one could wander through the host's house, getting ideas about making a housing change.  Who knows - but it does happen.  What you want to know is where you can find these people without spending a fortune.  Actually, you can find some without leaving your computer.  People changing locations will often visit travel review sites and place requests for information about the town on the site.  They'll often indicate that they will be moving and when -- giving you information and an opportunity to post a nice reply.  I've mentioned this before in a blog - I think.  But, another place you'll find them will be message boards that relate to tips about relocating.  Also, if you check out Amazon.com -- there is a series of books about how to get your Realtor to get you the best deal -- by state and/or geographic area.  You can check out the reviews and see what reviewers indicate about their interest in moving to the area.  Post your own well-worded review to entice people interested in that book to connect with you.  If you like creative--out of the box ideas to spiffy up your online visibility and boost your web site's potential, I have a CD version of my workshop on the subject just for agents at my site.  For less than $20 - you can get the CD and I'll throw in a free copy of my book.
