Buying into virtual realty - CNBC TV - MSNBC.com
Do you think Naples, Florida is a great place to have a Real Estate company on the internet? You bet it is! Below is a portion of an article where people are regularly hunting for real estate in the Naples area. And, for him, it's doing VERY well. Take a look:
"Bozzo says his Florida Web surfing is pay off. Over the last four years, he has made well into six figures by buying and selling Florida real estate online, and almost all of it has been sight unseen.
Indeed, a condominium Bozzo bought four years ago for about $220,000 is now selling for two and a half time that amount. One he bought earlier this year for $279,000 is on the market today for $379,000.
Mike Bozzo isn't alone. With the housing market booming, 22 million people are visiting real estate Web sites every month. But before you jump on the Internet and start buying, beware - this is still a risky business, and it's made even riskier by doing it on the Internet.
Bozzo confines his surfing to Naples, Fla. Not just because housing has appreciated 93 percent there in the last five years, but also because he's been going there since he was a teenager and he knows the area."
So, if your into real estate, do you have your own website? And, if so, are you marketing it via the search engines? How do you think Mike Bozzo is finding these sites?
