Sellsius co-founder joins Trulians

Rudolph D. Bachraty III of Sellsius fame has joined Trulia as "social media guru." Bachraty told Inman News today he is "100 percent" with Trulia and is no longer involved with the Sellsius blog or real estate portal. He also said he will maintain his broker's license but won't actively broker properties. Sellsius co-founder Joseph G. Ferrara said he will continue to crank out posts at the Sellsius blog and maintain the SellsiusRealEstate.com listings portal.

Other big real estate companies, such as Move Inc. and Zillow, have hopped on the blog-wagon, too, snatching up (at least temporarily) big-name bloggers like Dustin Luther and Vanessa Fox (see Inman News).

Bachraty and Ferrara say today's announcement is proof that blogging opens doors.
