Helping Agents Market for Good
Today is National Breast Cancer Awareness Day, part of the larger Breast Cancer Awareness month. Breast cancer affects many women and their families; a woman has a 1 in 8 risk of developing breast cancer during her lifetime. And that’s exactly why Trulians are doing our part to raise breast cancer awareness and to support Susan G Komen for the Cure. For every Trulia Pro premium marketing subscription purchased through the end of the month, Trulia will donate the first month’s fee to Susan G Komen for the Cure . Just use code PINK at billing to make sure your money is donated to this fantastic organization. In addition, Trulia has donated on-site ad space to the cause and has launched an employee donation program. Other ways you can do your part to support breast cancer awareness and help find a cure: Donate to a national cancer non-profit or to a local cancer treatment center Encourage women to check with their doctors about when to begin regular mammograms – then to have them! Write your member of Congress to say that early detection and treatment programs be included in any national health care legislation. I’m happy to say that my mom is a breast cancer survivor. Let’s all do our part to make sure more women are survivors, too. Agents: what other causes do you support in your local area

The Real Estate Scientist
Redfin is launching tonight The Real Estate Scientist , an initiative to use empirical techniques to improve the way our agents and clients buy and sell homes. We’re releasing our first report, which provides seven recommendations for home-sellers, and training our agents on the findings, which should allow us to have more informed conversations with our clients. We developed this research because the housing downturn has made it harder to sell our clients’ homes. This in turn has made us more introspective about how we can use our special powers – our computer science background and our consumer commitment – to be the best brokerage, not just the best real estate website
