Should I invest in virtual tours?

Feb. 23, 2008

I just completed the e-PRO course, and am excited about implementing some of the ideas. I would like to add virtual tours to my listings. However, I have only three residential listings, and none of them is very nice. Seems a waste of money to pay for a virtual tour program for such lousy listings. On the other hand, if potential clients could see what I am capable of doing for them, I might get some better listings. I'd be the only REALTOR anywhere around my home town offering virtual tours. I'm agonizing over virtual tours -- to be or not to be.

Does anyone (beside me) know where Americus, Ga., is? Let's chat. BTW, I'm 73. Tried retirement twice and didn't like it. Any other seasoned citizens out there selling real estate?
