Top Ten Real Estate Blog Posts 2012
Last week I announced that the Tallahassee Real Estate Website was being overhauled, and one of my first objectives in this process was to determine the most popular real estate blog posts.
I scoured my different analytics applications and have selected the ten most popular pages on our real estate blog in 2012, based upon unique visits to each page.
The most active page was not a big surprise, as many people use our Tallahassee Property Search Tool, but some of the other pages were not ones that I would have guessed.
Popular Real Estate Blog Pages
The following list shows our most popular real estate blog pages during the 2012 calendar year. Please note that some of these pages were written in prior years, but still pull in a lot of readers.
10. Real Estate Forecast 2012 - Every year I write a real estate blog post to forecast my expectation for the coming year. My 2012 forecast was published in December of 2011, and I forecasted 3,200 home sales in Tallahassee for the coming year. The actual number of homes sold in 2012 was 3,260!
9. Using The Lease Agreement In Home Buying - Readers flock to our real estate blog posts on creative financing, and many referred to using a residential lease agreement during some portion of the creative purchase of a home. The lease is important in creative home buying as it allows the buyer to occupy (or use the property) prior to closing.
8. Real Estate Scam Hits Joe Manausa Real Estate - The internet is a wonderful resource for finding information, just know that not everybody out there is acting in good faith.

5. Homes For Sale In Southwood - I find it rather remarkable that our fifth most active page last year was the property search tool for Southwood. You can always choose this link for the most current information on real estate listings in Southwood.
