The Real Estate Blog Pro

So you want to be a real estate blogger…

You sure about that?

This site was born from a need to develop a repository of sorts — answers to commonly asked questions, thoughts and wanderings about the past, present and future state of real estate blogging, and hopefully — ultimately — to provide a resource for the new, fledgling or even grizzled veteran in the real estate blogiverse.

Why Real Estate Blog Pro?

If you want to have a real estate blog, you might as well be a real estate blog pro. No point in doing this thing half-way.

I don’t purport to be a real estate blog pro, but I’ve had some success with it and I’m willing to share that — for free and as a consultant. Perhaps together, we can reach that “Pro” level and see what happens!

What will you find on Real Estate Blog Pro?

  • Articles on a wide variety of topics
  • Links to other related articles
  • A forum
  • A place to witness my various and sundry blog experiments — themes, design, plugins, etc.

So dive on in, make yourself at home. This place is for you as much as it is for me…

    Hi everyone!. Very cool site. I am wondering how a potential buyer of a property can be assured that important information about a home that has been purchased "as is" (i.e. from a short sale or a foreclosure) can be confident that all the facts are known or can be known. My understanding is that disclosures, sometimes important ones, otherwise required by a seller are exempted in the above 2 conditions. I am asking because I am privy to just such an example. I am not a potention buyer, just wondering what the answer is.

  19. …I’ve recently started a blog, the information you provide on this site has

    helped me tremendously. Thank you for all of your time & work. Thanks.

    You know what, I have seen in my life that commenting some thing is really easy job. But it become very important on what topic you are commenting. If you have some thing really good to share that others can also have advantage out of it than that comment is some thing useful information to site visitors, which will give them some information,and when you are getting comment it seems that you work, or you think the way others are doing which is really helpful.
    Comment's should always be informative keep that in mind. Because your comment can give others the new vision to face the world.

  22. Ive got tons of questions related to real estate blogging. 1) Are link exchanges good? 2) how do you find ideas for blog posts? Thanks for the help.

  23. Roy Martin says:

    Search engine optimization (SEO) is the process of improving the visibility of a website or a web page in search engines via the "natural" or un-paid ("organic" or "algorithmic") search results. Other forms of search engine marketing (SEM) target paid listings. In general, the earlier (or higher on the page), and more frequently a site appears in the search results list, the more visitors it will receive from the search engine. SEO may target different kinds of search, including image search, local search, video search and industry-specific vertical search engines. This gives a website web presence.

    I must really commend you for your well written post on real estate. The article encompasses all the details that one would look for in a real estate related article. Keep doing the good work because one would really love to read more from you.

  26. I love this idea – and judging by the comments from others, they like it, too! I know that blogging has made me a better blogger AND a better Realtor.

    Often, the other people in your office view you as a "competitor", but Realtors across the country view you as a "resource".

    I have learned so much from people I have never actually met and been able to share many thoughts with folks in far off places. At the end of the day, we ALL want to help people understand and, if appropriate, invest in real estate.
