REALTORS STRUGGLE TO CATCH A BREAK DURING HOUSING CRASH

Realtors are struggling to keep afloat in the wake of one of the worst housing slumps in recent history. In response to such a downturn, a website has launched which promises to give Realtors a free lunch.



    /24-7PressRelease/ - April 06, 2007 - Realtors are struggling to keep afloat in the wake of one of the worst housing slumps in recent history. According to Dow Jones Newswire the latest housing report showed that new home sales fell 3.9%, the lowest since 2000. Although the top 5% of agents are well positioned to weather the storm, the remaining 95% must struggle to survive.

In December of 2005 a client of Ms. Bistrowitz, president of VirtuallyShow.com, remarked, "we [realtors] must figure out how to pay the bills, put food on the table, keep up with technology and still find the money to market ourselves and our listings . . . we can not catch a break." That got Ms. Bistrowitz thinking about launching a website that would give agents a break. She came up with VirtuallyShow.com a site that enables agents to easily market themselves and their listings for free.

With rising foreclosures, sluggish sales and technological shifts, realtors must figure out how to get more for less. VirtuallyShow.com offers free tours, free web page, free MLS compliant links, and free hosting. "How much more for less can you get than that," states Ms. Bistrowitz.

According to recent CNN.com article "real estate professionals have two choices when it comes to confronting . . . change . . . engage it or pretend it isn't there." VirtuallyShow.com empowers agents to confront the changes without emptying their bank account. VirtuallyShow.com's mission is "To Give Agents a Break" and as such it focuses on making developing technologies accessible to all agent's, not just the top 5%.
