Realtor Websites
I have a unique perspective for designing realto websites. Before beginning my career as a web site developer and designer I spent 12 years in the mortgage profession. I have first hand knowledge of what services you provide your customers along with a complete understanding of the mortgage business.
I can offer a great deal of specific assistance in developing, not only your site content, but it's usefulness and effectiveness for your customers. If you want your web site to contain your current listings (recommended) that can easily be accomplished with a database for easy updates*.
When developing a site for a Realtor I will discuss with the Realtor what
the desired result is from their web site. If the desired result is simply
to provide a web presence - which really is defined as an on-line business
card - then the development costs are relatively inexpensive. If you desire
to generate business from your web site, which is normally the case, then
we can discuss what tools you want available to your site visitors along with
what information you desire when your customers choose to submit your information
form(s). There is always a very fine line as to what is too much information
to require your customers to submit and how much time they are willing to
spend completing your on-line form(s). I would normally recommend 2 distinct
forms, one that is more in-depth and the other which basically includes contact
information and a brief description of what the customer desires. The two
forms give the customer a choice as to what they wish to send to you and how
they want to complete the process. The bottom line for you is you want potential
customers to contact you - from there it is up to you to make the potential
customer a real customer.
It is very easy for an on-line customer to visit several realtor websites, submit several information forms and simply wait to be contacted. What you need to do is to get them "off the market" and your web site should provide you assistance in doing so. You web site needs the following:
- Describe who you are
- What services you provide
- Why the customers should do business with you
- What past customers have said about you - referrals and testimonials
- Where you are able to conduct business
- Several ways for the visitors to contact your company
- What separates your business from the rest of your competition
- Show your current listings
