Reality Check: Tweet & Sell on Twitter

“Twitter” used to be a word associated with bird sounds or general excitement, but now it’s synonymous with a high-flying social media service based at Twitter.com. Oprah, actor Ashton Kutcher and CNN have recently nudged Twitter further into the national conscience, but the publicity was hardly necessary. Unofficial figures for the free service that bills itself as a place for friends to connect estimate monthly users in the millions.

The networking potential of the hot new medium is not lost on Naples real estate broker Mark Weber. The owner of White Sands Realty reports he has been posting “tweets” on his site for about three months and has good results.

“I’ve heard from people from various parts of the country and even from a man in Greece,” the Naples realtor says. “I like the immediacy of it and the opportunity to create a global presence.”

Weber’s Twitter site, NaplesProperty, includes a short biography, family photo, some quotes, real estate advice and, at one point, a virtual tour of a $16.4 million sold property that has drawn a lot of response, he says.

“Twitter is as much about giving your knowledge freely as it is self-promotion,” he says. “It’s truly an interesting balance, siding on giving. Then, every once in a while, when you need to promote something truly worthy, your followers will listen to your request. A good, but unwritten, rule is that for every self-promoting tweet, you should give seven tweets of unique, free information.”

For example, Weber recently informed followers about a new addendum to real estate contracts concerning Chinese drywall and supplied a link for those who want more information.

“Tweets are limited to 140 characters,” he explains, “so you have to be concise and plan your content carefully.”

Followers, as they are called, can access Twitter through their cell phones or computers. Those who have a registered site can also forward material received. Weber says he likes his heightened profile and the increased prospects for new business.

“There may be potential home buyers out there with whom I’m making a connection, or fellow professionals with whom I can forge mutually beneficial,” he says. “One guy in California contacted me about referrals, and a couple seeking a local condo also found me through Twitter.”

Naples Real Estate Values on the Rise?

Naples Real Estate Values on the Rise?

I know, I know, I wouldn’t believe a Realtor either if I didn’t see the statistics for myself. But yes, there are communities in Naples, Florida where home prices have actually increased over the last year.

If you listen carefully enough, the statistics are whispering to you that prices may be ready to increase across the board and you will miss the opportunity to buy at prices that may never be this low again.

According to Zillow.com, home values in Pelican Bay in Naples, Florida have risen 3.9% year-over-year and 7% quarter-Over-quarter as of May 31, 2010. See the chart to the left showing the dramatic upswing in Pelican Bay property values.

The increase in Pelican Bay real estate value has a lot to do with sellers. Sellers willingness to slash prices to get sales last summer is a thing of the past. As inventory has dropped and sales have increased, current sellers are holding strong. They are not willing to drop their prices as much to make a sale. Seller stances like this are one of the first signs of a bottom in the market and a brighter future for the entire Naples real estate market.

At White Sands Realty, we have also seen increasing values in new home communities like Marbella Lakes where home buyers have seen an increase of over 6% in home values over the last year.

As more and more communities in Naples like Pelican Bay and Marbella Lakes see small increases in value, Naples real estate as a whole will begin to turn the corner to recovery – if that hasn’t started already.

Don’t miss the boat! Start your search for all Naples homes and condos for sale today at www.WhiteSandsNaples.com
