The memorandum, quietly posted on a website associated with the global commercial real estate company CBRE, says that the Palisades fire created a "blank canvas for redevelopment" at a site "ideally positioned for a transformative residential or mixed-use project." The memorandum describes the current single-family residential zoning as "favorable" for developers.

When a home is listed on the MLS, that property information is immediately available to virtually every real estate agent in the market who is an MLS member, and by extension, to every serious buyer working with an agent who has access to the MLS. By extension, literally all online real estate portals buyers and sellers have come to enjoy pulling their data from it.

With Valentine's Day right around the corner, many successful real estate agents across the country will be doing what they do every February: dropping off chocolates, flowers, handwritten cards, and in a few ambitious cases, cherry pies, on their clients' doorsteps. And weirdly it works. Not because chocolate makes people sell their house. Not because cherry pie unlocks listing inventory. But because Valentine's Day taps

As interest rates ease and buyer demand returns, real estate agents face a critical moment to reestablish visibility and trust before clients are ready to transact. Winning listings in a rebounding market requires agents to show up with purpose, be consistent, and be where clients are looking for information about buying.

The ad campaign You're not you when you're hungry debuted as a Super Bowl ad in 2010 and featured Betty White. My personal favorite is the Marcia Brady version from 2015.

While these remain essential to effective property marketing, the agent's personal brand has become just as influential a factor in their success as the listings they represent. Strategic public relations efforts can be a powerful tool in an agent's arsenal, helping them expand their reach, showcase their expertise, gain credibility, enhance their reputation and attract new clients and business opportunities.

It provides one central hub where buyers can learn everything about your home - photos, videos, floor plans, neighborhood guides, and even community events - without clicking away to competitor listings.

The real estate industry has always been about visibility. Whether it is a luxury high-rise in Manhattan, a suburban property in Long Island, or an up-and-coming development upstate, success depends on connecting properties with the right audience at the right time.

That means agents, brokers, and property managers who prioritize digital visibility are the ones closing more deals and expanding their portfolios.

According to DelPrete, in the 30 days prior to Compass filing its lawsuit against Zillow in late-June, barely a week before the policy went into effect, the Robert Reffkin-helmed firm's exclusive inventory was declining an average of 0.3% per day, and in the 30 days after the lawsuit was filed, it rose an average of 0.1% per day.
