I am getting prepared for a presentation at next week’s Virginia Association of Realtors’ Convention. The audience will be the Policy Board (archived: 2009) (they’re “important”) and whomever else decides to stop by. For those of you who are real estate bloggers – fresh or veteran – what mistakes have you made?
Likely one of the topics will be required disclosures on blogs – covered here before. Should Realtors have to disclose their licensee status in every single post? (I’m a Realtor)
Here is my biggest mistake that I can recall – I deleted a comment three months into blogging (archived: 2008), and haven’t made the same mistake since. Unfortunately, the comments didn’t come through (archived: 2008) when I moved to WordPress. The caller found my blog, castigated me, I deleted his comment and then re-posted it after having immediately regretted my impulsive decision. Lesson learned.
