(Tweet this article!) If you haven’t heard of Pinterest by now, I HIGHLY recommend checking out this new site that allows you to make virtual pinboards of items you find interesting – from recipes to crafts to fashion and more. I’ve been a member of Pinterest for several months now, and besides the fact that I’m sleep deprived from spending all night pinning my favorite items and browsing other’s boards for my next project idea (seriously, it’s my latest online addiction), I think this platform provides a unique opportunity to the Real Estate Industry.
Pinterest and real estate seem to be a natural fit. Pinterest has proven to be a great resource for those looking to design their dream kitchen, find DIY home improvement projects and browse boards for other inspirational ideas for interior decorating. And because Pinterest visits increased 4,000% in just six months landing them in the top 10 most visited social sites in Nov. 2011, this is one site you need to get on board with (no pun intended).
The above image is an example of how one member is using this social platform to their advantage. For more info check out Reinhart Realtors on Pinterest! They’ve done a great job inspiring their followers with pins ranging from restaurants in their area to housewarming gifts to master bathroom ideas and more.
