Will my attending Blog Orlando help sell your home?

I am spending the day at Rollins College attending the Blog Orlando un-conference. Why would a Realtor spend a Saturday listening to presentations about blogging, building blogs and tech stuff? Can any of this help sell your home?

I believe 100% that it can help sell your home. A big part of marketing is product placement and if I can continue to learn how to blog effectively, my blog or blogs should gain traction with the search engines which should translate into visitors who are interested in real estate and once they are here, maybe, possibly they will want to buy a home.

That is the goal anyhow. Make sure my blogs content, design and SEO is proficient to attract interested readers. Selling your home and many others should be the end result.

As an added plus, I am enjoying blog Orlando.

Are auctions selling homes?

It seems each week I come across an advertisement about an upcoming real estate auction to be held in a particular city or neighborhood. I receive at least 1 call or email a week announcing an upcoming event and asking if I would like to participate.

Are real estate auctions a viable way to sell property in this market? Are they just another in a long line of gimmick marketing that rises up when markets go south? While I read about upcoming real estate auctions, I cannot recall seeing anything afterwards that mentioned the success of failure of the auction held.

Will an auction sell a home faster than a real estate agent can? Is the final auction price at or below market value for the home? If the homeowner had listed the home at or below the market value, I would suspect that they would have just as good of a chance to find a buyer as they do holding an auction for their house.

Are auctions selling homes? I am not sure, but will continue to try and find out.
