PickyHomes.com is the alternative answer. It definitely solves the problem of where to go for Real Estate and to whom. Affordable to Realtors too.

Although we remain neutral in this battle, PickyHomes.com is the alternative answer to Redfin’s ongoing battle. It definitely solves the problem of where to go for Real Estate and to whom. Affordable to Realors too.

Joel-
Thanks for the link. I’ve been very impressed with Facebook for awhile — they have massive potential in my mind and the classifieds (marketplace) was a great add-on. The thing they have over craigslist is a form of a reputation system (profiles).

Joel, I like this post a lot. You’re right the MLS is the original social/business network. Real estate needs to return to those days of cooperation a little bit more. That’s why we keep getting hit by the media, government, etc.

My head is spinning at all the change….I just answered 2 questions at Trulia voices thanks to your article this week on the subject. Will keep an eye on it. Where is this all headed? Still trying to figure that out so I can write my own “real estate 2.0″ article. By the time I decide what to write you will be writing about RE 3.0!#!!#@!

Social networking only works when it is first and fore-most people-centric. So making a social networking site listings-centric may prove unproductive for agents.

It has been done already. In NYC for instance a site called OLR.com (On-line Residential) is where brokers market their listings, and most of them don’t bother using the Manhattan MLS.
