G Dewald: Just something that my colleagues and I noticed...but worth looking into the intention (or lack of) behind it. Debbie: Your MLS will actually drop the listing? Do they fine the agents for not including pictures? How does the agent population feel about this? Krista Miller Windermere Real Estate Bay Area
I was just having this conversation with a colleague yesterday after reading the article. In my opinion it is the lazy agent that doesn't include pics. HOWEVER, an interesting note: a leading brokerage in our area (Berkeley) has begun to intentionally NOT put pictures (ooh, funky grammar) up on their listings until after about 4 days of being active. I am not really sure why this is, but can only surmise that they are hoping people will go back to their listings?? Is this crazy or is there something to it?? On related note, I do these walking tours of my listings. One sold to a guy living out of state who saw the online tour and purchased it sight-unseen. Not smart in my opinion, but I was representing the seller so hey...works for me! Jay, I second what Erika said about your article! Krista Miller Windermere Real Estate Bay Area
