I am an eleven-year real estate veteran and a Broker Associate with Prudential California Realty in San Diego. Together with my husband Steve, also a Broker, I assist both buyers and sellers in all areas of San Diego County. I am also (gasp) a real estate blogger.
In addition to our website, San Diego Castles (SanDiegoCastles.com), we host our San Diego Home Blog (SanDiegoHomeBlog.com).
I agree, T, except that I like the concept of the low-hanging fruit. When we feel we are getting to the point where we are nailing our strengths, the biggest growth potential really exists in our weaknesses. So, from my vantage point, nurture the fertile crop but don't ignore the undergrowth. Kris Berg
Alison - This is hysterical, and please allow me to be a character witness if need be. I have swept garages, washed windows and even bleached grout, and all in the name of making a home marketable. I have hidden dirty dishes in the oven during an open house only to find that the seller returned home to preheat for a batch of cookies, killing an entire population of Tupperware. Your story just trumped all of mine. Thanks for the laugh.
Thanks everyone for the comments. As a point of clarification, I am not questioning the value of SEO, just the value of SEO to our clients versus to ourselves. If we are to embrace transparency and deliver honesty, which is really what our clients want, then it seems more than a little ludicrous to suggest that my blogging is anything but personal marketing. The on-line consumer may find my blog, and may even return because they find value or amusement, but they will do the serious shopping elsewhere. My goal as an agent, therefore, is to inspire them to want to work with me when the time comes. Jay - Nice icing on the comments cake. Well said. See you all in San Francisco!
