Like so many agents, Rick was unhappy with his old website.  So, he got an XSite.  Little did he know that he'd be one of the three big $23,000 winners in our 23rd anniversary giveaway. Needless to say, he’s ecstatic. But that's not the only thing he's happy about these days.  His XSite is also giving him a better web presence than ever.  Here's his story:

“I wasn't satisfied with what they offered, so I called and told them I was going to find a new website company if they couldn't improve their listings and make them more professional looking.  They actually told me to call a la mode.  That says a lot.  Now, I have other Realtors calling me to sell their houses and I take it as a great compliment."

Rick Furmage's site

"My XSite is just far more interactive with my website visitors.  It makes me look like a credible professional.” He went on to say, “I love the listings tools.  I can tell you I walk into listings presentations much more confident than before.  When I pull out my laptop and show a seller all the photos and how professional the house looks on my website — I edge out my competition time and time again."

"When it comes to buyers, it's the photos, photos, photos.  They come to my site to look at the listings because of the unlimited photos and they're all clean and clear and professional looking.  And it actually helps save me time too because I'm not showing houses they're not interested in because they can preview the house on my website. Buyers appreciate that too — it always leaves a bad impression on the agent when they show a house the buyers don't like at all.  My online listings just really work for me."

"Just one of the important things on my XSite that I didn't get elsewhere — Listings XChange. It's so nice to easily share listings with other agents and you never know where those buyers are going to come from.  It's a fast, easy way to get more exposure."

Congratulations Rick!  And we're so happy to hear that he's thrilled with his XSite.  With his winnings, he's going to take his family on a Florida vacation and will be investing more into the business.
