Here are some of our favorites, spanning multiple relevant niches, no matter what your level of real-estate expertise!
Speaking of Real Estate
(http://speakingofrealestate.blogs.realtor.org/)
Operated by the National Association of REALTORS, this blog emphasizes a combination of tips on how to effectively execute the basis and data provided from studies and surveys ran by the NAR. This blog also features insightful posts and videos from a variety of contributors, including both guests and NAR managers.
Zillow Porchlight
(https://www.zillow.com/blog/)
It can be helpful to read material your customers will likely find on their own to better empathize with their concerns and be able to answer questions more effectively. Zillow is a popular website among homeowners, and their blog spends a lot of space catering to aesthetic concerns such as staging and light home improvements. It does also offer solid story columns relating the experiences of people in the market, though.
