I agree with you.
Blogging is great for Real Esate Networking nowadays and then is very important to take care of the online reputation we have. You never know who can “bad mouth” you ( a competitor, an angry client, who knows?)
I suggest set up a Google Alert (www.google.com/alerts), is free and you can receive e mails whenever new Internet postings that include your name appears.

Thank you for sharing!

You are absolutely right! In this Internet era, I do not understand how we can do business with Internet Marketing, blogging, etc… all that let the world know about ou services or about how we can help to build sucess.
A couple of days ago, I was talking with a realtor that was literally crying because all the money she is losing in this hard economy and complaining how much she has to work to earn less… When I asked her if she was blogging, or if she has a website, she said that is “waste of time” (!!!!)
Then, I just said (using my “inside voice”, of course): “Now, I understand”.
The economy is not as it was yeras ago, but it would be worst if we still doing the same, with the same tools and with opening our minds!

I firmly believe in blogging about your services, your listings, and your area of expertise. I’ve received lots of great feedback from clients and readers who follow my blog. Researching and writing articles also helps keeps me up-to-date and informed on what’s happening in my area and my industry.

I agree with you David, blogging create Direct Communications with potential buyers. And i think the most important is Lead Generation, you can provide leads at almost no cost. Many sites offers blogging for free.

Blogging is great, we had a lot of success form our reverse mortgage blog that we added to our site. I think every mortgage broker and real estate agent should maintain a blog.
