I wanted to look at properties today for my sister, since she is relocating to Ga., and what a nuisance it was trying to get a peek at the pictures of houses she was interested in in the MLS. Quite a few sites asked me for my life history, e-mail address, login id's. So, I left the sites and went to find one that eventually allowed me access to the MLS without doing all the above. :roll:

Do realtors really get that big of a pull of clients from web hits?
I personally would be interviewing realtors if I was looking to purchase a home.

I think if I ever become a realtor, I would focus more on my qualifications vs. making people go through a horse and dance to see what's available in the market. :dunno:

I agree and cannot stand having to register to look around. There are sites that don't do that crap. I think those agents which require registration scare off more customers than they draw by all of the hoop jumping.

Sure scared me away. If I have access, and see something, I'd be more likely to hang around the site, and then take a closer look at the realtor to call and make inquiries and see how market savvy they are.

Mango, I hear your frustration. My advice is to let your mouse finger do the walking.

Wow! Thanks for the nice comments on my site. It has been a process trying to put together a site that is user friendly and that people will navigate. This is actually my third attempt!!!! :bang: I feel I am finally getting it together. We also have our company site but I like to have my own personal space. Thanks again!
