4 Reasons To Use Social Media in Real Estate

I want to give you a plain fact – today, 85% of people start their real estate searches on the Internet! 85%!

This tells you right away that you want to work with an agent who’s very knowledgeable about the use of the Internet and social media like Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, YouTube, etc.Right now, you may be wondering why the Internet is so darned effective for buying or selling a home.

First, there’s the visual element – buyers can view homes, either through photos, slides, or virtual tours. On their computers, they can actually go inside and outside a home to see if it meets their needs. This eliminates tedious and time-consuming searches!

Second, there’s the convenience element. From the comfort of their own home, buyers can view as many properties as they want to see at the touch of a button.

Third, if you’re seller, then – wow! – you can get hundreds or thousands of prospective buyers to view your home 24 hours a day! Beats the heck out of open houses, doesn’t it?

Fourth, as a seller, the Internet allows you to weed out “lookyloos” who like to come to open houses and buy…nothing! You get targeted buyers who are actively interested in your property! It saves you time and aggravation!

As you can tell, I’m really, really excited about this new technology! And you should be too because it can help you buy or sell a property faster, easier, and more conveniently!
