A short guide for the
Internet consumer
When you're on the Internet, you don't have time
to waste on endless searches for useful real
estate information. You want to get things done
quickly and without hassle. So chances are you'd
like a real estate agent who
- Answers e-mail promptly and
professionally.
- Respects your on-line privacy.
- Offers home listings and other
Internet tools to help you find or
market a home.

Enter the e-PRO.
An e-PRO is a REALTORョ who has successfully
completed the e-PRO training program for real
estate professionals. Endorsed by the National
Association of REALTORSョ, the e-PRO course
teaches professionals the nuts and bolts of
working with real estate on-line: Web sites,
e-mail, on-line tools, and most of all, what
today's consumer really wants.
What does all this mean to you? There are
several benefits of working with a certified
Internet professional.
More privacy
Are you reluctant to give out contact
information through the Web for fear of being
pestered or spammed? e-PROs understand. They've
learned the Web isn't just a place to do
business; you need information from someone you
can trust.
That's why e-PROs respect your privacy. They
respond quickly to your questions, but don't
send you unwanted communication. And they
protect your personal information.
Less Hassle
Tired of struggling to find information? e-PROs
are more likely to have access to the latest
Internet utilities, making your life easier.
These tools may include:
- On-line home tours
- Instant access to comprehensive
neighborhood data
- Extensive property listings
- Immediate e-mail notification of
just-listed homes meeting your
criteria
- Referral networks and on-line
forums, where e-PROs can quickly
find information覧even potential
buyers覧from other e-PROs
- Newsletters on current real
estate conditions in your area
- Electronic faxes sent to
you by e-mail
- Advanced software, PDAs, and
laptops to find you answers on the
spot
|
The result: you get more information, more
easily. With electronic files, you have less
paperwork to deal with. And since your agent
uses e-mail, you can even eliminate phone tag.
The e-PRO streamlines your entire
transaction, from showing to closing.
Less Expense
An e-PRO's access to advanced technology can
save you considerable expense. You have more
tools to find or market your home, so you're
likely to get a better price. With on-line home
tours, you reduce in-person showings覧and the
costs involved. And by using e-mail, you save
money on long-distance calls and fax charges.
Relocating? An e-PRO is ideal for you. With the
tools to do your research electronically, you
can make a decision on a home the first day
you're in town覧or without traveling at all. You
and your family save on travel costs. And after
you've decided to buy, monitoring the sale by
e-mail saves you even more.
Should you use an e-PRO? Yes覧especially if
you're an Internet user. In this fast-paced age,
technology has become a necessity. An e-PRO is
someone who has recognized and responded to the
needs of the new consumer. If you choose an
e-PRO, it's a safe bet you'll get the kind of
service you want覧and need.
