Walt, I have looked on craig's list to see what was on it but had mixed feelings about using it. I see June Piper-Brandon has posted a comment above that it works for her to get traffic on her web page.Maybe I should go for the new way of doing things. Best of luck to you.
Walt I have not used Craig's List, but I would be interested to hear what your results are.
Thanks.
Walt. I use Craigslist whenever I list a house. Be sure to use Postlets.com to make it look great. Also, it makes it much easier to upload - and quicker!
I get hits, calls and emails from listings I put on Craigslist everytime I use it! I've actually had many of those contacts turn into real live buyers. It works.
Plus, you can advertise in OTHER cities on Craigslist!
Walt, I've used craigslist for my RE listings but I get more traffic from the rental properties I list. However, several of my craigslist tenants want to buy in a year so I'm pleased.
We post all our listing to Craigslist as a matter of course. I use Postlets.com to create the flyer, although I believe that Craigslist may be about to start limiting the amount of HTML code you can use in each post.
We have not sold anything due to it being posted on Craigslist but it has produced several good buyer leads.
I'm in Central Oregon (somewhat rural) and deal primarily with vacation rentals (for sale and/or rent). I have had great luck on Craigs list. Rememebr you can post listings in many cities. FOr instance I do Portalnd, Seattle and San Fran as well as many other smaller Oregon locations.
