ok I have come up with a website that has been a real hit so far.  Not saying my Realtor friends are thrilled about it but its really a way for them to farm as well.  Its a simple process.  We call folks that have there house listed in the paper and offer to put in on our website at no cost.  You can go and look at it when you have time.  www.southwestlahomes.comis the site I created.  When we call to make the appointment we get to go into the house to get pictures and spend soime quality time with the sellers.  As you know most people that are selling will be buying pretty quickly. 

We provide a for sale sign that has a 800 number on it.  When the possible buyer calls it captures his phone number so we can follow them.  It has been a home run to say the least.  Seller love it because the system screeens callers that are looking for a price or owner financing.  The system culls lots of callers that never bothers the sellers.  We answer with a recording that tells the caller the price and description of the house.  Then it give you caller the sellers direct phone number.  As I said earlier our sellers love it.  Not only have we gotten the folks that are selling but we have gotten a high percentage of the buyers that are looking.  Its drives people to the web site and then to our mortgage companies web site.  www.absolutelowestrate.com   Please visit the sites and give me your input on them.   If your a Realtor go there and get the phone numbers and then get the listing.

Hey Richard:

I say whatever works. We don't get a lot of FSBO's in Silicon Valley. Just REO's, Ha                      But I will keep it in mind. Thanks for the tip.
