  5. Discuss ColoProperty.com
    Discuss with James why you should use ColoProperty.com to check any properties you find on other websites before contacting James about them.

    Websites like Zillow, Realtor, Trulia, Redfin, etc can have inaccurate or delayed data.

    ColoProperty.com is the direct interface to our local MLS and so it is the most up-to-date website for checking property status, pricing, etc.

    If you're going to use other websites, please check ColoProperty.com before emailing James about it to make sure the info from those other websites is correct.

  6. REAL ESTATE BROKER: Setup automatic property search emails
    Have your Real Estate Broker set you up to receive automatic property search emails with properties that match your criteria.

    Usually this means telling your Real Estate Broker:

    • Cities you'd consider (or in some cases parts of specific cities)
    • Attached, detached or both
    • Minimum beds and bathrooms
    • Price max (and maybe a price minimum)
    • Garage requirements
    • Any other requirements that Real Estate Broker can set up a search for

    Mark this complete once your Real Estate Broker has started to send you automatic property search emails.
