Here is today’s list of top real estate posts of the day.
1) Splash: the key to better real estate branding – Great advice on branding as always from Marc. Don’t tell them you are the best, show them you are the best and they will come to the conclusion you want.
2) Brokers’ rights to control uses of their data and the RPR license agreement – The RPR-MLS-Broker discussion is quite interesting. If RPR cannot get all the data in the MLS their service will not be nearly as impressive as if they have all the data. If MLS’s do not provide the data brokers could do so. But again, this is only beneficial if all the major broker’s agree to it.
3) Using Local Forums To Generate Real Estate Leads – Most agents are always looking for new ideas, new marketing or farming techniques. Here is one that is easy and free to do.
4) Paragliding Must-See – Who doesn’t want to find a new way to market their home? Of course everyone does! Here is one that is sure to turn a few heads. Somehow I do not think we will be seeing it much.
5) Improvements nobody thinks of… – Looking for some low cost improvements, here are a few that will improve any house!
6) CUSTOMER SERVICE DOESN’T EQUAL ACCESSIBILITY – How many full-time agents take the advice in this post? I bet you not more than a handful. I know myself and most of the agents I am friends with do not. But I think we should.
7) Who Says MLS Photos Aren’t Important? – WOW… you need to check this out. Want a nice video of your listing, but not good with video? I love this!
8) Buyer Sues Over Secondhand Smoke – And now for something completely different… This is so bizarre I had to Google it to make sure it was real before posting. How does this even make it to a court room?
9) Raising the Bar (#RTB) Starts Here for REALTORS – This all sounds wonderful, but when you have goals such as “Improve the competency and professionalism” or “Support and enhance the relationship between Realtors and consumers” what the heck does that really mean. All I see is language someone came up with with no meaning, but to maybe justify their job position?
10) The www.CondoGo.com iPhone App with Mortgage Calculator is Now Available for FREE on iTunes – Talk about big time! @IanWatt has been one of the leaders in real estate technology. He now even has his own iPhone app.
