Offer a 4% commission(unless you already are)then create text message with pictures and sound of you describing the house in an up beat voice(see youtube.com for how to instruction or pm me)then send out a big blast to all other real estate professionals brokers, agents, investors, mortgage brokers, etc...This is a marketing trick I learned in NYC during my times as a party promoters.

I was also considering a local number and using voice mail vs a live person.Any comments?

Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice.

It adds a walkie talkie like feature to your iPhone, allowing you to quickly send and receive voice messages.

Often the business owner is too busy to pay attention as long as the blog is being updated and they don't realize what's being posted...or...they do see it an are so inept that their ghost writer has convinced them that this is a great and cheap way to move up google rankings.I have no problem with the concept of spinning your articles, just edit them before posting and make sure that they still sound like you - they still have your voice to them.

I have a voice mail from one of them (which I saved) stating that he moved out.

I put up bandit signs and have a Google voice account for the phone to ring.

All the debate above, which is good, looks pretty darn academic, even esoteric, when your shelling out mortgage payments for months on a vacant "turnkey" unit.Sellers need to be more forthcoming about a lot of other things than ROI estimates.

In my best Jed Clampett voice, "Woo wee, Bryan's got him one of dim dare submishun injuns".

I did get a Google Voice phone number with the word SELL in the number.
