My business partner Mike Stephenson forwarded me a post that he found on Craigslist.com (see below). Here is what he emailed me:
Steve,
Have a look at this letter from craigslist. It is an excellent example of what is to come, why realtors shld have blog. buyers/sellers will begin to screen/pick their realtors based upon info in blog, the next step of information dissemination.

Hi –
I am looking to purchasing a condo in one of the new developments downtown. Ideally I wd like to work with an established property management company (who can potentially manage my purchase for lease-outs and rental) – and so am looking for a referral or an introduction. I’m looking for someone who can provide good info, can negotiate well on my behalf, and can assist us with docs/legal matters as we live in the US (and are looking to buy in BC). Plan to visit BC in April and so want to start the communication soon.
Also, if anyone out there has some feedback about the folks at Rennie Marketing, pls. let me know.
Lastly, is there a good website/blog out there that details current condo prices, going rates, etc. for downtown Vancouver.
Thanks for reading.
