what do you use craigslist for ???

By
Real Estate Agent with RE/MAX Platinum

Other than the obvious reasons, such as trying to sell junk around your home, or looking for free items, have you tried this?  I go to the renters section and if the rent they are willing to pay is high enough/makes sense, I contact them and ask if they have considered home ownership instead of renting?  I do this most mornings, and a few minutes has brought me a few more leads each week.  Try it!  It is free and another way to increase your business!!

Results That Move You

That's a great idea, Kristin.  Do you have a systematic approach or do you just wing it?

By the way, I found the puppy I rescued after Hurricane Ike a new home using Craigslist!

Giving Back With Each Home Sold!

I simply go to CL each day and look at the housing wanted section.  I look for buyers willing to pay rent of at least $800.  Not much of a systematic approach, and the rent figure could certainly be different in your area, but it has proven to work.  Also,  I am not sure if you saw my blog today on Not buying that puppy in the window...I am a HUGE animal lover an activist...check it out!  Its so great you are rescuing animals in need.  Thanks for giving them a loving home!

Open House Postings, Listing Postings, I have tried the renter thing, but just don't have the time to chase people who are not ready to buy around.
