Because of the equal access to most Internet sites, sellers of real estate do not need the costly, conflicting and ineffective services of a listing realtor.
The posting and sharing of information about your real estate on the Internet is easy and usually free. There are so many different sites a seller can and should place their property on. Even online Internet newspaper advertising is dirt cheap and affordable by any seller.
So much has changed over the last 10 to 20 years that it is now possible for anyone to effectively sell property over the Internet. The days are long gone when Realtors had complete control over the sales process. The National Association or Realtors has struggled to maintain this stronghold over the marketplace but the free exchange of information over the Internet has made this goal completely futile. With the only exception of access to the Multiple Listing Service everything has changed as a result of the Internet. Bigger and better changes are still to come that will completely change the entire sales process even more. With or without the blessing from the Realtor community change is coming to be sure.
Gone are the days when Realtors had the only access to listing information. The Multiple Listing Service use to print weekly books that only Realtors had copies of. This assured Realtors that buyers and sellers had to seek out information from a Realtor. Now the information is just a click away.
The National Association of Realtors just cost the taxpayers of this country millions of dollars in their failed attempt to limit equal access to virtual real estate offices. This failure only highlights the need for an open MLS structure.
The National Association of Realtors last bastion of control remains in their control and limits they impose on the Multiple Listing Service. This too shall change. The Internet and fresh ideas for its use will enable these changes for the better.
In my new book LISTING REALTORS ARE OBSOLETE. USE THE INTERNET TO SELL YOUR PROPERTY AND SAVE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN COMMISSIONS I explain many of the changes and conflicts of interests that take place and have a negative impact on the sellers of real estate and how so many Realtors are actually counterproductive and harmful to the Seller's cause.
I have more than 25 years experience in the Real Estate Industry as a Broker, Builder, Developer and Investor. I have bought and sold many, many properties directly without the use of MLS or listing Realtors. In fact I have sold entire subdivisions with very little involvement from the Realtor community and I can show you how to use the Internet to sell your property without wasting your money on a listing Realtor.
Sellers do not need the negative outdated services of listing Realtors. I will show you how to work directly with buyers and cooperate with the type of Realtors that are entirely worthwhile, the buyer's Realtors. My 12 PRINCIPLES FOR SUCCESSFUL ONLINE PROPERTY SELLING is available online for free at http://www.AskJamesJoseph.com so be sure to get your free copy.
My mission is to bring about the needed changes in this industry and reestablish control for the Sellers once more by educating sellers and property owners how to perform many of the simple steps to selling on their own.
