Take a look in areas dealing with holiday homes and especially luxury vacation homes.

Buyers and sellers have figured out that they are the ones paying for all that overhead. Remember the listing books? They were the first thing that computers and the internet killed. Next will be the large firm. Real estate agents are no longer the guardians of the data, but instead have become an assistant in the process. Those who aren't willing to make the change, will be forced out by the ones who recognize that the roles have shifted. It's hard to believe that with the exponential growth of real estate online, there are still agents who don't have an internet presence. The days of large firms in big offices is over.

Real estate agents are no longer the guardians of the data, but instead have become an assistant in the process. Those who aren’t willing to make the change, will be forced out by the ones who recognize that the roles have shifted.

It’s hard to believe that with the exponential growth of real estate online, there are still agents who don’t have an internet presence.
