68 Forums for Real Estate Agents to Connect with Consumers

Scouring the Internet I have chosen 70 Forums and discussion groups that have had active participation within the past thirty days and have a real estate theme or topic of local information and are geared toward interactivity with consumer rather than real estate professionals only. 

Using these websites a real estate agent can,

• Get involved directly in discussions.
• Observe and gather topics of consumer interest to blog about.
• Find topics of consumer interest for guest blogger post topics.
• Use to build a successful marketing campaign (See the last item on this post for more information on how to).
• Combine with Question and Answer Websites for a powerful online internet real estate prospecting plan= Free Lead Generation.

Pick and choose forums and dicussions based on your niche, area(s) of expertise, and locality.
