FREE REAL ESTATE WEB SITES This is a no-obligation offer. Just fill out the form and your free 15 page real estate website is up in just minutes. You can join the handshake program (also free) and you will immediately have listings from other agents in your area to display on your site. It really does not get easier then this. You can click here to request your website set up if you have not already done so. Once you have selected a domain name, you will need to purchase it. There are a number of vendors. For ease of use and pricing, I like $5.99 Domain Names at 1&1 includes Free Private Registration, 1GB Email, Website Builder. No hidden fees. It will take about 24 hours for your name to become active. OK, now go get a virtual fax number. This has more benefits then I can possibly list here not the least of which is file management. Your faxes are emailed to you, allowing you to eliminate the need for worrying about not receiving all the pages of a contract or your fax machine running out of paper. Plus, when the transaction is complete, you can burn all the files to CD or DVD and not have to keep storing all those paper files. Need more convincing? You can be sitting in a restaurant and receive a fax through your phone (I've done this). No more running to the office to review an offer. Oh yeah, the first 30 days are free. At this point, you should have a web address, a website, and a virtual fax number. You are ready to order business cards. VistaPrint has an offer for 250 free business cards, all you pay is shipping. This is a great offer if you do not mind the small advertisement on the back. They also have extremely reasonably priced business cards you can design yourself or use their templates. I have been using them for years and have never been disappointed. You now have the basics to get your online real estate career started.If you are interested in offering more for your clients, click here for part 2 of New Agent Jump Start. |
