iKarma for Real Estate

Wednesday, December 19th, 2007

We have had a large number of realtors begin to utilize iKarma, so I wanted to give everyone an example of how using your reputation can be a great thing in real estate.

 With a market that just has fallen significantly, many real estate agents have had a hard time recruiting new clientele.  Personally, I think a lot of this has to do with the large influx of new realtors who are not fully knowledgeable about the market as a whole.

 The thing is, there are many agents who have great track records and are above the rest in their respective markets.  The biggest problem is that since this is often a one time sale business, it’s hard to get those clients to spread the word about their agent.  Using iKarma, several realtors have begun to realize the potential of using their reputation to secure a future sale.  Visit our real estate section for several examples.

To give a more specific example, lets look at a how utilizing iKarma has advanced the career of a Palm Beach real estate agent by allowing her to spread her reputation.

Sandy has been an active agent for several years, but even in a declining market, she has enhanced her business. Her reputation has been the biggest reason. The Palm Beach real estate market has been declining, but Sandy’s business has been increasing. She has made an active effort to spread her reputation via the internet and through word of mouth.

Recently she sold a multi-million dollar home in a wonderful community called Jonathan’s Landing. When we spoke with her, she credited much of her ability to sell in this exclusive community to her experience and reputation.
