Here are some frequently asked questions about creating your own website.

2. Why don't I just use my broker's website?

Adding your listings and promotional material will establish your web presence.

However, this online presence will do little to distinguish you and your services from other agents in your office.

If you work with a large national or international real estate company you will be presented much the same as hundreds, if not thousands of other real estate agents.

By creating a real estate website that promotes you...and only you...not only can you distinguish yourself from the competition, you will have total control over what appears on your own unique website.
