Lately I’m seeing lots of online “advice” for agents who want to market listings on Craigslist. Many real estate agents are increasingly relying on Craigslist—and with good reason. It’s popular among homebuyers and, according to agents, delivers what agents want… qualified leads!

If Craigslist is in your area, don’t wait! Post all your listings there. The formula for success is: post the listing, but with a link to all the details and photos ON YOUR WEBSITE. This will drive prospective buyers to your website, where they can become familiar with your site and continue their house hunt—perhaps even register to see more listings.

All of us at Market Leader are big fans of Craigslist for real estate marketing and now our products have integrated tools to help you post and manage all your listings on Craigslist—and capture those leads through your website.
