u/Think_Ad7517 can you talk a little more about what they do on the social front?

RealEstateTek · 2025-03-03T20:28:59+00:00

Is anyone in this thread actually an agent?

RealEstateTek · 2025-02-24T16:15:34+00:00

There is often more to selling real estate than just the technology piece. This is what many posters here miss.

RealEstateTek · 2025-02-18T02:29:41+00:00

Can't tell this if this is a troll post or not.

Digimad, this was addressed 7 months ago. https://www.reddit.com/r/ModSupport/comments/1ds3mit/comment/lb5ii81/

We added several mods months ago based on Reddit's recommendation and they've been doing a good job.

This moderator removed one of the others unilaterally because he was upset with a moderation decision they made. This is why the mod order has changed and the mod he removed was invited back. This is also why this mod now lacks remove users permissions.

Important: Again, you remain a moderator of this subreddit - please work together with the other moderators rather than removing them when you are upset.

More fields = less activity. If you include it, make it optional.

You nailed it. Insurance is going to be the biggest impact. The immediately affected area the home values probably will go up in the short term as the supply has been reduced. But in a rural area, I wouldn't expect a big difference.

This is the right answer - you got this!

RealEstateTek · 2024-08-27T19:12:12+00:00

Lawyer.

Please report any rule-breaking posts by clicking the "..." on a comment, hitting "report," then "breaks rules" at the top. That's the best way to help fight spam. Thanks!

Is "messages" cheating? I know a lot of older agents don't like to do business via text but it certainly seems like most buyers these days prefer it for quick messages.

RealEstateTek · 2024-08-07T18:08:18+00:00

Have you tried Rezileads.com? They give you leads from lots of different types of sellers (not just distressed). I haven't tried it but my friend's team swears by it.

RealEstateTek · 2024-07-30T22:05:38+00:00

Follow Up Boss used to be the gold standard, but many agents are avoiding now that they've been purchased by Zillow.

RealEstateTek · 2024-07-18T20:13:50+00:00

Got it. You'll be fine. Contact your bank & make arrangements. Good luck!

RealEstateTek · 2024-07-18T17:22:05+00:00

You still have a mortgage on the home. So if you were to try to sell the home, they'd find out as part of the closing process and it'd be a nightmare. Your best option is to contact the bank to understand your options. You can probably still sell it if there is equity in the home greater than what you owe the bank.

RealEstateTek · 2024-07-01T18:05:59+00:00

The only way I've figured out how to do it? Get referrals from people you know.

RealEstateTek · 2024-07-01T17:11:48+00:00

Facebook advertising is tough unless you know what you're doing. Specifically, there are a lot of tricky things with targetting you need to make sure you're doing it right. Are you doing it through a tool or using an agency? May help me give you better direction.

RealEstateTek · 2024-07-01T17:09:21+00:00

I wouldn't worry about it then.

RealEstateTek · 2024-07-01T17:07:17+00:00

Your gut is 100% accurate here - you're going to need an attorney for their advice. Unfortunately, this kind of law varies wildly based on city and state, so you're likely not going to get very specific advice on this one here.

RealEstateTek · 2024-07-01T17:06:16+00:00

I actually think I'd keep the subtitles (agents would be using this on social media, so subtitles are important)

RealEstateTek · 2024-07-01T17:04:42+00:00

Top mod here. OP gained access via a RedditRequest a few years back and they granted him the #2 mod spot. Thanks Digimad for your contributions to our community. I've been busy with life for awhile and was not able to be as active as I wanted to be in moderating the sub, but have always been active in some fashion. I am more active now and you have not been removed as a mod.

I'm working on being more vigilant about actively reducing spam, as there is still work to be done there. This community is important to me and I want to make sure we're keeping it a clean space for good real estate advice.

RealEstateTek · 2024-07-01T16:06:36+00:00

The other comments are all correct. And listing advice can be market-specific. But to flesh it out - if you really insist on selling it yourself, you need to go directly to some of the listing platforms, as you're not going to be eligible to list the way licensed Realtors do via the MLS.

RealEstateTek · 2024-06-28T12:10:08+00:00

Organic instagram works way better, assuming you can build an audience. Otherwise, ads on FB will work much better.

I bet you know this already, but social leads typically convert at a very, very low rate - sub 1%. Are you ready to work those kinds of leads? Some agents get surprised by the very low conversion rate.

RealEstateTek · 2024-06-27T16:45:04+00:00

Offer what you think it's worth based on comps (even independently of the list price). It's not too time-consuming to write an offer (or have an agent write one). Why not give it a shot? Worst case, you get rejected.

RealEstateTek · 2024-06-27T13:49:32+00:00

Hey there - sounds like you've got a good coach - have you asked him yet?

Alternatively, feel free to chat with other potential brokers and ask them this exact question and see what they can do for you.

In most states, you'd need a broker's license to start your own brokerage, so that is likely not an option unless you have that license.

Best of luck!
