He called me.<br><br>The customer only wants to \"deal\" with the listing agent. And, he made an offer on the house. His offer? $300,000 for a house that is listed competitively for the neighborhood and condition at $389,000. The owners counter - \"go pound sand\".

So, here's a news flash to the would be buyer - the seller has the same information you do and they are not stupid.<br><br>So, yes. I know there are \"customers\" out there looking, waiting, lurking for that great deal.

Jay has a large fan base that uses his web site to communicate the problems they encounter and get educated on the intricate details of real estate sales.<br><br>Locally, he provides home shoppers with more available homes than the big guys. But, that will not make them loyal to him. Many will find the address of a home on his web site and do a drive-by. They may print out several homes and then take a look at the street and a three dimensional look at the home. At that moment, while sitting in their car looking at the house, they will pick up their cell phone and call the name and number on the sign in front of the house.<br><br>That doesn't mean the home shopper is a bad person. They like Jay or whomever provided them with the knowledge of the home, but they just naturally call the big number in front of them. They don't mean to cause Jay a loss of money. They got the information for FREE. They have now come to expect the information to be given freely. Jay and other agents spend thousands of dollars to provide it, but it cost the customer NOTHING.<br><br>When something costs NOTHING, that's what the person who receives it thinks it is worth.  And, that is what real estate sales has become.<br><br>Don't get me wrong. I too use the \"free\" services provided on the internet. Several years ago, I watched a relative buy a brand new car off of the internet. They got the best price, someone brought the car to them and gave them all the papers and an orentation of it. They never even stepped into a dealership. The car even came with a service package where the dealership would pick up the car and change the oil, etc. and return it to them.<br><br>No one is a salesman any more. They are all 'customer service representatives' being paid a few dollars more than the minimum wage. I no longer belong to AAA for travel and car break-down. I use the internet and my cell phone carrier offers a break-down service for $3 a month. Of course, at the current pay, I can't afford to travel any where anytime soon.<br><br>When I stated in my first post that it was \"interesting\" and we are watching the back side of the horse disappear, I am not point fingers. I too offered a IDX on my web site for years, but the over lapping of MLS areas was not giving a complete picture. Customers would call and ask about homes on Realtor dot com or some other web site and ask WHY it did not show up on my site. That IDX link is expensive and for each MLS to provide the information becomes cost prohibitive to me. <br><br>If Jay and Franie can provide a service so that when they look at the company balance sheet it shows a positive return to him then great.  I hope that they see a loyalty from all the customers who use his \"free\" service and that success is with them always. However, for me, providing great service has not resulted in providing adequately for my family.  To me, real estate sales, as we know it, is gone.<br><br>We let the cattle out of the barn and then out of the holding pen to graze in the meadow.  We did that so customers would see all our fine stock eating good green grass. But, the cattle wandered here and there and we did nothing to claim them as our own (see DOJ vs. NAR). So, for good or bad, I see the farm has changed.<br><br>I see a day when a customer can sign up for their own Supra Key to gain access of homes without an agent. A driver's license, small $500 deposit and an email address will be all you need to see a home. No agent to \"sell\" you a home you don't want (like that's been posible for me and others). Soon we will have nothing but \"customer service representative\" who take down information and post to a web site. Seven, eight, nine dollars an hour to answer questions on the telephone until they ship those jobs to another country. When it is time to buy the home you will just fill out an on-line form that has your electronic signature and bam - you own a home.<br><br>I guess the good news is: we don't work for Pontiac.", "is_last_child": false, "can_reply": true, "down_voted": false, "real_date": "2009-04-28_12:08:17", "killed": false, "user_key": "4d60b2e24ba9da6c50c235607a0aa532", "has_been_anonymized": false, "edited": false, "author_is_moderator": false, "from_request_user": null, "votable": true, "date": "04/28/2009 09:08 AM", "approved": true, "num_replies": 0, "is_first_child": false, "email": "", "parent_post_id": null, "depth": 0, "points": 0, "author_is_creator": false, "is_realtime": false}, "12486713": {"up_voted": false, "ip": "", "has_replies": false, "message": "Greg, I would like to understand why you think people automatically call the number on the sign? I think the customer is becoming much more sophisticated and understands the concept of dual agency. I for one would have never used the listing agent in the transaction of my home back in 2004. I would not believe my best interests were being looked out for in that situation. I'm also a consumer that appreciates where I get information whether it's free or not. Let's face it, Jay doesn't get all his business because of his Twitter network. Heck, a ton of his network is other agents, brokers and real estate technology guys like me. IMO I think he does well because he provides the info in an easy to use format, doesn't pressure people to work with him and is just a damn fine individual.

I too capture more leads when registration is enabled and I have mine set up to ask for registration once they have seen 8 properties.   I do think once a buyer becomes more serious about buying they should enlist a buyer agent and see the MLS as the agent does.  An agent sees the MLS in real time and can access important information like how many days a home has been on the market. Our MLS allows us to save a search for each client and create an MLS portal for them and alert them of any new listings matching their search criteria.<br><br>&lt;abbr&gt;<em></em>&lt;/abbr&gt;&lt;abbr&gt;<em>Kevin Curtis&#180;s last blog post..<a href="http://www.minnesotapropertiesonline.com:80/blog/st-paul-reo-nightmare-2.html" rel="nofollow">St. Paul REO Nightmare #2</a></em>&lt;/abbr&gt;</div>\

If you\'d like to add any of those dimensions to your search site, speak to Drew about the Zillow API. We even have have an API for you to add the FSBO that are listings posted on Zillow; some of which aren\'t even in the MLS.</div>\

Redfin is a brokerage and so they publish the complete IDX feed but they also source listings not available via the MLS. In the current market, there\'s major demand for foreclosed listings and many of them, like many FSBO listings, are not in the MLS. So, Redfin sources foreclosure listings from more complete sources than the MLS (as does Zillow.) If you search the Redfin blog you\'ll find more details of the source of their foreclosure listings.</div>\

Of course we are continually working on increasing the reach of our listings database which currently is around 3 million listings. But something I was surprised you didn’t mention much was everything else around the home. I know the few neighborhoods Nicole and I bought in were heavily researched. We started at the city level,  and looked at the local economics and people trends to find a neighborhood we believe that we fit into best.  Then we researched schools and of course then located our home.  <br>  <br>Also as registration goes, you have it right.</div>\

That means buyers need highly relevant content and listings for a highly localized area. In the research we\'ve been conducting, we hear time and time again that people want to know as much as they can about an area and even the individual properties...a major reason for the rise in "hyperlocal" websites sprouting up everywhere. The magic will happen when all listings--FSBO, MLS, Foreclosures, etc.--are brought together with "hyperlocal" content and fused into a streamlined search and display. Of course, then the trick will be keeping it all up to date.</div>\

I don\'t use the IDX system on my web sites - if the company wants to operate one (and they do) I\'ll let them provide the information.<br> <br>I have in the past paid for IDX and used the registration and non registration method you describe. My company has provided me over a hundred leads that sit dormant in my portal. Those leads gave up their name, address, email, telephone number and asked to speak an agent about a house. Most just really wanted the address of the home. You know the listing agent gets to check off if the home is to be shared with or without the address.<br><br>For the most part, I just give them the address.  And, if you have been in the business long enough you would know that it goes against the grain. Many of us subscribed to the SALES methods of Floyd Wickman, not some wine guru or the modern day convention speakers. I just give them the address because like you said, "I can’t force anyone into buying or selling a home ".<br><br>But, I also put them on a drip email from the MLS for similar homes in the area and price range of the home called in about. I track it, too. The MLS tells me if they open the email or not. On some slow day I even give a call and leave them a message to ask if they want me to continue sending them the email or not. Sometimes they like the follow up and other times I get silence or even a nasty reply.<br><br>The other week I showed a house to someone who "doesn\'t want to be bothered" by agents but spends his time looking on another agent\'s IDX and doing drive-by inspections. When this customer drove by my listing he didn\'t call the agent paying the money out for the IDX. He called the number on the sign. He called me.<br><br>The customer only wants to "deal" with the listing agent. And, he made an offer on the house. His offer? $300,000 for a house that is listed competitively for the neighborhood and condition at $389,000. The owners counter - "go pound sand". There was no talking either party into a negotiated sale. All parties know how to look up information on the web. So, here\'s a news flash to the would be buyer - the seller has the same information you do and they are not stupid.<br><br>So, yes. I know there are "customers" out there looking, waiting, lurking for that great deal. I am even part of the new "marketing" program of taking lots of pictures, writing great descriptions, and unlocking the doors to many homes for these would be buyers. But, I liked it better when I was a salesman.<br><br>Good Luck.</div>\

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-12486696" class="dsq-comment-message">Gregory - <br><br>There is more than one way to skin a cat in this business. So far in the month of April there have been 46 people that registered on my IDX, completely of their own accord so they can save searches, tag favorites and get automated listings updates.<br><br>46 in 15 days isn\'t too bad.  We\'re pushing just over 1,000 in the IDX database in the past 14 months or so, have another 4,100 in the Point2 website database and a couple of hundred we\'ve set up manually in the MLS for auto-listings.<br><br>Will of of those turn into clients? Of course not. Yep, some will search here for months on end, then go to Aunt Sally or the listing agent for help. Many people that search here are referred by other agents. Yes, they send their clients here to use the search tool I pay for, then they write the contract and pick up the commission check. Personally, I can\'t fathom telling one of my clients to go to another local agent\'s site to look for homes and call me when they find one, but it happens every day.<br><br>But plenty enough do call or email when they are ready to buy or sell. At least enough to allow us to open our own brokerage in the middle of the worst market in decades and bring in 10 agents to help handle the business.<br><br>We\'ve had people that have used our site for over two years that we\'ve never had contact with that become clients.<br><br>It seems to work. Could it work better? Absolutely.<br><br>I\'ll freely admit I\'m not much of a salesman. I consider myself more of a consultant.<br><br>Heck, if someone drives by one of my signs and calls me, I\'ll refer them out because I abhor dual agency. Many think I\'m crazy because I turn down opportunities to "double-side" a transaction.  That\'s not a typical thing for a "salesman" to do.<br><br>Do I lose some potential clients because I don\'t force registration? There\'s no doubt. I suspect you lose some too as your site sends them off to <a href="http://realestate.com" rel="nofollow">realestate.com</a> to search for NJ homes (incidentally, that link isn\'t right as it\'s trying to force the search to NJ, and you can\'t use state level searches on <a href="http://realestate.com" rel="nofollow">realestate.com</a>).  <br><br>There is no question that many internet "leads" suck. It\'s a numbers game. And every agent out there has a different strategy for handling internet leads. I do a terrible job at "lead cultivation" because I am so hands off. I have drips and auto-listings and all that but my follow up stinks (it\'s basically non-existent). Still, for whatever reason, people call and ask us to list their house or help them find one to buy.<br><br>When I get a phone call or email that says, "Please bring over the paperwork to list our home", or "Can we go look at some homes", I don\'t consider that person a lead. I consider them a client.</div>\

I love the LOCAL emphasis made by some. No one ever gives an elaborate analysis of what that means. Does local mean the town you live in? Maybe, it means a zip code or two. But, some may say it is the entire city and the immediate suburbs. To me it means as far as my MLS covers.<br><br>And, because my MLS had a fight with the original MLS for this area and became its own data collection center, I am forced to belong to at least two MLS bandits. Forced if I want to best serve the home buyer and seller - clients. Does my LOCAL cover the geographical area of the two MLS companies?<br><br>No. I belong to four of the bandits. And, I found a great house at an amazing price for one of my clients on an MLS that really doesn\'t even serve the area. But, that is the MLS the BROKER placed the home on and the one where I found it. Of course, the client has a few issues with his credit so he lost that one to someone else from a far away distance who knew a good deal when he saw it. Regardless, of the lack of LOCAL expertise.<br><br>I will drive any distance to sell a house if I have access to the data and keys. I can get most of the "local" information right off the internet. And, most of the time I know more about the area than some of the so called local experts. A good GPS, access to the internet, a supra key, and - a client that can afford to buy is all I need to sell a home.<br><br>And, yes. The client who could not close on the deal had a "pre-qualification letter" from a mortgage broker. And, I had checked in with that mortgage broker several times to be sure we could do the deal, but you know how that story goes.<br><br>So, Jay\'s data is great for the little guy in Arizona, because it is true in Phoenix Arizona.  But, it\'s not true in New Jersey and many other locations. IMHO - your LOCO Realtor.</div>\

It sounds like a giant pain in the ass.<br><br>Our MLS covers Maricopa county, and a small part of another one.<br><br>Maricopa County is larger in square miles than the entire state of New Jersey.<br><br>So for me, I can\'t even give LOCAL expertise within my MLS area. There is *no way* any single agent can have expertise over a 10,000 square mile area. I don\'t even feel I can provide local expertise across the Phoenix metro area. I can easily drive 65 miles from my house and still be in the Phoenix metro area. To me, this far exceeds any definition of "local expertise".  65 miles is roughly the distance from Atlantic City to Trenton.  Should an agent in Trenton sell houses in Atlantic City, even if they have MLS data and keys for both? <br><br>The point of this post wasn\'t really about the "little guy" and whatever "LOCAL" means. The point I was trying to make is the national aggregation sites do not have all the listings. In areas like yours with multiple and/or overlapping MLS coverage, there isn\'t a single IDX solution either. <br><br>But I strongly suspect that if you looked at the number of listings your four MLS\'s cover, it would be more than what the national aggregators have.</div>\

Jay has a large fan base that uses his web site to communicate the problems they encounter and get educated on the intricate details of real estate sales.<br><br>Locally, he provides home shoppers with more available homes than the big guys. But, that will not make them loyal to him. Many will find the address of a home on his web site and do a drive-by. They may print out several homes and then take a look at the street and a three dimensional look at the home. At that moment, while sitting in their car looking at the house, they will pick up their cell phone and call the name and number on the sign in front of the house.<br><br>That doesn\'t mean the home shopper is a bad person. They like Jay or whomever provided them with the knowledge of the home, but they just naturally call the big number in front of them. They don\'t mean to cause Jay a loss of money. They got the information for FREE. They have now come to expect the information to be given freely. Jay and other agents spend thousands of dollars to provide it, but it cost the customer NOTHING.<br><br>When something costs NOTHING, that\'s what the person who receives it thinks it is worth.  And, that is what real estate sales has become.<br><br>Don\'t get me wrong. I too use the "free" services provided on the internet. Several years ago, I watched a relative buy a brand new car off of the internet. They got the best price, someone brought the car to them and gave them all the papers and an orentation of it. They never even stepped into a dealership. The car even came with a service package where the dealership would pick up the car and change the oil, etc. and return it to them.<br><br>No one is a salesman any more. They are all \'customer service representatives\' being paid a few dollars more than the minimum wage. I no longer belong to AAA for travel and car break-down. I use the internet and my cell phone carrier offers a break-down service for $3 a month. Of course, at the current pay, I can\'t afford to travel any where anytime soon.<br><br>When I stated in my first post that it was "interesting" and we are watching the back side of the horse disappear, I am not point fingers. I too offered a IDX on my web site for years, but the over lapping of MLS areas was not giving a complete picture. Customers would call and ask about homes on Realtor dot com or some other web site and ask WHY it did not show up on my site. That IDX link is expensive and for each MLS to provide the information becomes cost prohibitive to me. <br><br>If Jay and Franie can provide a service so that when they look at the company balance sheet it shows a positive return to him then great.  I hope that they see a loyalty from all the customers who use his "free" service and that success is with them always. However, for me, providing great service has not resulted in providing adequately for my family.  To me, real estate sales, as we know it, is gone.<br><br>We let the cattle out of the barn and then out of the holding pen to graze in the meadow.  We did that so customers would see all our fine stock eating good green grass. But, the cattle wandered here and there and we did nothing to claim them as our own (see DOJ vs. NAR). So, for good or bad, I see the farm has changed.<br><br>I see a day when a customer can sign up for their own Supra Key to gain access of homes without an agent. A driver\'s license, small $500 deposit and an email address will be all you need to see a home. No agent to "sell" you a home you don\'t want (like that\'s been posible for me and others). Soon we will have nothing but "customer service representative" who take down information and post to a web site. Seven, eight, nine dollars an hour to answer questions on the telephone until they ship those jobs to another country. When it is time to buy the home you will just fill out an on-line form that has your electronic signature and bam - you own a home.<br><br>I guess the good news is: we don\'t work for Pontiac.</div>\

I would not believe my best interests were being looked out for in that situation. I\'m also a consumer that appreciates where I get information whether it\'s free or not. Let\'s face it, Jay doesn\'t get all his business because of his Twitter network. Heck, a ton of his network is other agents, brokers and real estate technology guys like me. IMO I think he does well because he provides the info in an easy to use format, doesn\'t pressure people to work with him and is just a damn fine individual.

I have no hard fast data that I am correct. It is like stating home owners are better citizens, or, a college educated person earns more than someone who does not have a degree. I once stated that home buyers shop more on sunny days to a client and she wanted to know what the weather has to do with buying a home. I can\'t explain the why. <br><br>As for the weather and buying homes, it has been my personal experience in southern NJ that plays a big part in activity of home buyers. It is a fact that carries over to the gambling industry, too. As an accountant I was told to track the number of sunny days in Atlantic City to help explain the increase or decrease of revenue. So, if a casino finds it to be a variable in business, then I think I can assume it is safe to carry it over to home shopping.<br><br>As for calling the number on the sign? I have met several people who used my web site to help find a home, yet purchased it by calling the number on the sign. But, I have no hard numbers to prove it to be a universal occurance. My writing is only an opinion, not a writ.</div>\

I send reports every other week to my sellers letting them know how much exposure they get from those "big" home advertising sites.  I must say that we do get a lot of hits.  On the other hand for my buyers it poses a problem because they miss out on so many opportunities for great homes.  They come in disappointed because they can\'t find what they are wanting.  Of course when I show them they are out there in and IDX search on my site they cheer up but I wish everyone knew that.  Again thanks for the great article.  Couldn\'t have said it better myself.</div>\

I love them because they give my sellers unmatched exposure.  I hate the big three because they are my main competition in the search engine rankings.  I have them beat in most search categories but it was a major job.  If agents would just do listings and stop adding content to those sites via blogging and Q&amp;A,  things would be a whole lot easier.  I\'ll probably always have this problem as very few agents do a big time website meaning they will always rely on the big 3 for everything.</div>\
