Postlets vs vFlyer…Which to Use for Your Real Estate Listings?

Real estate agents are always asking me which to use…vFlyer or Postlets. I say BOTH!

Postlets is free and vFlyer has a subscription fee. So for a small fee each month (plus your time to enter your listings into each system) you can get your real estate listings “shot gunned” (syndication) to lots of other real estate sites.

When your broker syndicates to real estate sites, as soon they are in “contingent” or “pending” status, the feed updates the status and your listing will no longer be marketed. If you do  your own syndication, your listing will stay on the internet a little longer and you will be able to generate more leads. (Plus, if you are a Trulia Pro member, you can brand the listing syndication properties long after the broker syndication feed has been removed.)

Both create .html code which can be used to post your listing to Craigslist and Backpage. Unfortunately, a lot of my clients are telling me that their ads using this code are being flagged when their “ugly ads” are not. So, if you are posting and this happens to you – this might be why and you may need to find alternatives for your ads.

  1. I use both but need to discuss the posting to the eClassified sites with you. I am seeing a trend with my ads that are flyers being flagged and removed but yet my boring ads are not. Have you heard this from others?

    Yes – I am hearing that from other agents. Keep posting more of your regular ads and let the syndication do it’s job.
