I recently got into a discussion about this topic with a number of real estate agents on another blog. I've noticed an increase in the number of buyer prospects who contact me via text messaging, particularly over the past six months or so.
How many real estate agents out there are inviting prospects to text message them? For example,
- Do you offer an SMS Text number on your real estate sign riders?
- Do you put your Text Messaging number on property flyers or brochures?
- Do your blogs and social networking profiles offer a Text Messaging number to contact?
- Is there a text messaging number on your business card?
If you do happen to encourage contact with clients and prospects via text messaging, what kind of statistics are you encountering?
Are prospects messaging you? If so, are they mostly in a particular age group?
