This is simply birddogging between agents, neither has a business relationship with the proposed victim (prospect).If a prospect is in the public domain an agent can't claim any exclusive right to that person.

On the same date that I signed the contract with the agent, I had a comprehensive marketing plan that included putting a for sale sign, ordering a domain for the property website, sending a "coming soon"'email to the top 10% agents in San Francisco, scheduling a brokers' tour the following week and scheduling an open house.

If you host with hostmoster you can set up wordpress with real estate these for about $7.95 month with unlimited domains.

How many domain names should I purchase?

So make sure the blog is part of it, rather than on a totally different domain.

I have also today registered the domain [REMOVED].

Seems like this combined with the government plan to sell Freddie/Fannie foreclosures REOs (many being SFHs) in bulk to huge investors/corporations that will supposedly rent them out, means big business/government is taking over what once was the domain of the "mom and pop" investor.

Remember you business address is public domain so you will get marketing and people can look you up, etc.

Secure the domain name first.

You'll need to buy your domain names (URL) and set up a hosting account.
