I always use Trulia, and occasionally Zillow. I've heard of Hotpads, but these other sites are a great resource for users looking for real estate and this page is definitely going in the favorites list! Rich, thanks for the great list.

If I were told today that I'd be relocating to Los Angeles, how would I possibly know where to look for housing? Would I simply spend a lot of time looking at all of the available housing in Los Angeles, and attempt to rate its affordability / value without going there, or speaking with someone who might give me some guidance? It seems to me that local resources are the best for anyone moving to a foreign place. Larger sites have value insofar as they might suggest trends and average pricing.

We can't get too wrapped up in just what other agents are doing. We need to reach the people that will be our customers.As you said "As working agents, did you know about the other six sites listed?" I imagine many, including myself, didn't! This is an excellent reminder of the “social” in social media. We can’t get too wrapped up in just what other agents are doing.

I have been doing a lot of research on this. Can't yet refute totally what you are saying but thus far it does seem to show she is correct. The author was quite thorough.

ALL of the listings. For comparison it would be fun to see how many properties are listed on the local MLS, as well as how accurate the other sources are.
