Hi Matt,

I had talked with you on the phone a long time ago. This is Mert with Falcon Living.

Sorry totally missed this thread, so here is my input slightly late.

Brochures are horrible for the exact reason you mentioned in your own home buying experience. You printed them out and went out on your own to shop for the home. So where is the real estate agent in this process? nowhere.

As far as Connect MLS is concerned, the lead machine, called Dreamtown signs every single lead into ConnectMLS manually (200 a day in number of leads) in addition to their own lead management that pretty much made me realize that automation and lack of realtor involvement in leads simply makes the value of the lead distroyed. A lead management machine should make the client interact the realtor. Without interaction, you got nada. Anyhow this is my two cents. P.S. Can you P.M. me your messenger again. I seemed to have erased it.
