Hey there Members & Friends! Happy Pre-Labor Day Weekend! I was thinking about two important services that might be very valuable to you! PAY YOUR INVOICE The HAR Website now has a featured button on the top of the website that allows you to pay your invoice/fees etc via Credit Card online...

Social Media and Your Real Estate Career

Your clients and you are crazy about Social Media these days and as a REALTOR®, we have to be careful in what we post and how we do it.  I am blogging to you about some advertising issues that I have personally viewed on REALTOR® pages business and or personal and also a little advice on posting. ADVERTISING ON SOCIAL MEDIA Advertising on Social Media is no different than advertising in the newspaper.  If you remember this, you will understand how to post correctly.  One of the most common mistakes I see is missing required information according to the Illinois License Law and you don't want to make this mistake, because the penalties can financially be high and you could lose your license in some cases.   What needs to be in your post?  Your Company Name and Your Name... If the listing is not yours then you must say "Listing Courtesy of That Agent and Company Names".  Simply it is no different that placing an advertisement in the Newspaper.  REALTOR®
