FSBO Sites Grow as Broker and Franchises Languish

By Victor Lund|2018-05-03T21:25:21-07:00November 30th, 2011|Broker Technology Research, Broker-Agent Information, Main category, Marketing, Strategic Planning|1 Comment

One of the pleasures of working at the WAV Group is the barrage of business questions that we are tasked to answer on a regular basis. Often, the questions challenge conventional understandings about the effectiveness of strategies in real estate. A key strategy discussion among executives at large broker firms and at large franchise organizations surrounds listing syndication to FSBO websites. Syndication strategies that each firm chooses varies relative to local market competition and consumer behavior. I highlighted that last sentence because it is the most important statement in this blog post. Many brokers and franchises are looking at what appears [...]

The new Homes.com

By Victor Lund|2018-05-03T21:25:31-07:00August 18th, 2011|Broker Technology Research, Main category|2 Comments

Homes.com launches a game changer If you look around the real estate industry, there is always a quiet giant tending to its business and moving along steadily without rocking the boat too much. Unless you were on vacation this week, you saw a flurry of press releases, blog posts, twitter posts, facebook messages, and Linkedin message about the release of Homes Connect and the demise of the AdvancedAccess brands. As a consultant, I watched in yearning as Dominion acquired nearly a dozen real estate technology brands. From the beginning, it seemed logical. Dominion was a publishing company, the biggest in [...]

in a recent article from China Daily, there was an amazing fact from The China Statistics Yearbook 2008 revealed. They found that the average home price in Beijing was 23 times a local family’s average income, compared with the international level of four to six times. Do you think they are setting themselves up for a MAJOR fall? Their government has come through with up to 30% discounts on mortgages for first time home buyers, but it doesn’t seem like that will be enough to make those loans truly a prudent investment over time. China is also experiencing irrational property price [...]

Online consumer shopping behavior has changed the way consumers shop for real estate. I am currently looking for a new car. Knowing that car salesmen are notorious for creating a lot of sales pressure by trying to close the deal and negotiate the highest price they can regardless of the competition, I have avoided visiting any car dealerships yet. To start the process I visited automotive.com. While there I looked at every luxury sedan available and learned more about each of their unique features and benefits. Since I am a pretty loyal BMW fan, I then went to the BMWUSA.com [...]
