Jun. 11, 2007 - Tech Savvy Agents Have an Advantage in the New World Of Real Estate

There's no doubt about it.  In the competitive world of Real Estate in a hot market like the Triangle and Cary NC Real Estate Market I have a distinctive advantage!! My background in Business Development, working with customers, understanding consumers wants and needs, and how to "Get the Word out" have helped my business tremendously. 

I have the abiltiy to do things that agents that have been in the business 30+ years do not.  I'm tech savvy, internet conscious, and know how to find real time information on properties that make me a better agent.  I can write a contract in my car on my HP Tablet PC Laptop (see my previous blog on this tool), get signatures, and print or fax the contract to the LA/SA with my wireless printer ON THE SPOT!!! The Triangle Area has some of the most sophisticated and educated workers in the country.  Why not use the Tools of the Trade they use to provide them with a distinct advantage!   Attached is a link to HP's website educating Realtors about the benefits of going mobile which you can find here. 

Why would we ever go back to the old days when agents didn't have the tools we have today?  I know my clients do their homework.  They go to the web and see who has a presence. 

They ask questions like these?

Who does their homework? Who knows the neighborhoods? Who knows how to negotiate the best deal?  My clients know I've got what it takes and choose me time and time again because of my expertise and background.  They know that, in a competitive market like the Triangle's, I have real time information on properties to negotiate the best deal when there are multiple offers on the FIRST day!!

Thanks for visiting and hearing my voice.  Yes, that's my voice and my opinion.  I'd love to help you find the best home for you and your family in the Triangle.  Visit my website or Email me at Tracy@TracySantrock.com for more information.
