5 Real Estate Blogs You Should Be Following

The internet is a vast resource, filled with countless outlets of information for realtors and real estate agents like you. But time is precious, and our email inboxes can only hold so much until we start to mass unsubscribe from the various mailing lists we found ourselves on over time. So how, with the little time we have between creating listings, setting up open houses, and showing homes, can we keep up on the latest news and trends in the real estate industry? There’s no need to sacrifice sleep – simply subscribe to these five real estate blogs!

Inman – www.inman.com

Hosts of some of the most popular real estate conferences each year, Inman focuses their blog content on real estate advice, tech, and news. Realtors and real estate agents flock to their blog to stay updated on the latest trends and news in the real estate industry. From marketing advice to the newest apps in real estate (we know how much real estate agents love their phones!), Inman is the ideal destination for agents, no matter their experience level.

Curbed – www.curbed.com

Specializing in localized content in more than 10 cities across the country, Curbed offers unique perspectives in popular housing markets. They cover anything from affordable housing proposals in Los Angeles to the impact of smart homes on the cities they’re built in. But they don’t limit their readership to only residents of San Francisco, New York, or Philadelphia, to name a few – their national coverage brings a fresh look at topics ranging from architecture to home tech to the fab-or-not tiny home trend.

Whether your clients are considering becoming landlords for the first time, or your focus is more in commercial real estate, BiggerPockets is the perfect resource to add to your reading list or bookmark bar.

Whether you’re looking for a mortgage calculator or a blog post about mortgage rates, realtor.com should be one of the first real estate destinations you visit.
