    Hey guys,

    I'm looking to pick your brains a little...

    What are some things that Real Estate Agents do on a daily basis?
    Where do they go?
    What websites do they go to?

    I have asked a bunch of my colleagues who are in this field but am wondering to see if I get any new answers from fellow DP'ers.

    Much obliged!

    There are may sites available in which you can search for real estate forums and thus you can find the traffic.

    I've also come across quite a few social networking sites especially for real estate agents. Try searching for these as the ones I've seen had pretty high traffic and PR.

    Well the more internet savvy and motivated R.E. agents and brokers spend some time reseacrhing, hanging out in forums and also learn on NYSAR, search on MLS and go out to show clients properties. The less motivated less internet savvy R.E. agents and brokers others only know how to do a couple of things - and that's search for properties on MLS (Multiple Listing Service) and drive around showing properties

    There are sure to be some well read, high traffic blogs in that space you could start commenting on and networking through.

    A lot of real estate agents have realty news sites as their homepages, so I would start there.

    If you are marketing to RE Agents, make sure that you market to mortgage brokers, RE appraisers, loan officers for banks.... get all the ancillary positions as well.
