Realtor.com -vs- ActiveRain.com

After mulling around in the rain network for the past 3 days, I have come to realize that this network of Realtors, Lenders and affiliates has become quite valuable to me.  I am already getting referrals and doing business with others that are in and out of my area.

                                

The amount of resources available here, and because the knowledge of the Real Estate Industry is “SO WELL”  represented here, do you think that consumers will catch on and come here to ActiveRain.com to find their Realtor? Thousands of consumers go to Realtor.com to search and find proerties for sale, do you think that one day, Buyers and Sellers will come here to find their Realtors, Lenders, Title Companies etc?

I know I would. How big will ActiveRain really get and is there capacity to grow as large as realtor.com?

Seems to me a site like this can offer so much more than just looking at a list of houses. This seems to offer more value to the consumer who is shopping not just for a house, but for a great Realtor.  In my past 3 days as a newbie, I have discovered a fantastic network of not just good agents, but some really great people.  It’s not just a blogging spot for the bored, this is really great stuff.

I’m hooked and sold, what’s next for the future of ActiveRain?
