Zip-code based marketing in real estate

Zip-code based marketing in real estate
Published by: smith 2010-03-16

Welcome to:hznm.com

How can I contact the top five real estate agents use zip-code based marketing strategies? Any such agent must have a website address formatted *[zipcode].com, .net, etc. Bonus points if you can identify any agents that market to more than one zipcode. I do not want a list of agents that have zipcode numbers on their sites, as zipcode numbers are on every address in the US. I want the agents that extensively tailor marketing to very specific zip code areas, in an attempt to "build-community" around a zip-code area. Again, I need the contact information for such agents.

Yes! And, ideally, if the primary mission of the company is real estate, not zip-code based sales in general, that's worth bonus points. Thank you!

Hello again. I'd like to ask a favor. Please have a look at: http://shop92802.com/index.php?page=real_estate and let me know if this is the type of site you have in mind. If it is, great. But if not, please let me know as specifically as you can why it falls short, and what additional features would make it a viable site for your needs. Thanks a lot. pafalafa-ga

Hello 98008guy-ga, I'm looking into your question, and from a preliminary search, I'm finding that a great many real estate firms make use of zip-code based marketing tools, and even more tightly-focused geographic information from census tracts and census blocks. However, very few (if any!) seem to have an exclusive focus on just a single zip code. Can you do a few things to help clarify how to best answer your question: 1. Can you provide a link to an example of the type of site you're interested in, so that researchers can become a bit more familiar with what it is you're after. 2. Can you have a look at the following link: http://www.firstteam.com/neighborhoods/neighborhoods.asp and let us know how well or how poorly this meets your needs. First Team is one of the top real estate firms in the country, and they have a focus (as you can see) on neighborhoods in Southern California. However, the site (as you can ALSO see) isn't strictly defined by zip code. 3. And can you also look at: http://www.92024.com/ which is a zip code based site with a real estate component, but I don't know if it's the type of thing you're after. I just want to get a better sense of what will and won't meet your needs. Thanks. pafalafa-ga

I'm not looking for real estate agents or brokerages that have websites with the ability to lookup properties based on zip-code criteria, as virtually all real estate database search engines allow zip-code based searching. I'm interested in ANY zip-code based marketing approaches for a number of products, services, and merchants (ex: www.92024.com). However, I'm mostly interested in the marketing of real estate services specifically. If the researcher could find a site such as www.92024.com, but instead having a more narrow focus with compelling, real-estate oriented information and services - that's what I'm looking for. Such a site would probably be used to promote the services of a real estate agent within a brokerage, though it is possible that a brokerage would have such a focus in a large metro area.

I neglected to include my search strategy, which consisted of: --searches at www.whois.sc for domain names based on five-digit numbers, or that had "zip-code" or "zipcode" in the name. --Google search for: wealthiest zip codes to identify zips for further investigation as potential web sites.

Hello again, 98008guy-ga, Thanks for getting back to me. I'm glad you liked the shop92802 site, because there are a bunch like that, and I've listed them below. A few general observations: --California seems to be really big on the zip-code-based website...you'll see a lot of them in the list below, and far fewer from other states. Perhaps this is the influence of Beverly Hills 90210! --No 98008.com, alas. --Only a small number of sites appear to be very focused on real estate, and again, these are in California. I've lumped these together, below. --There are many defunct sites with a zip code/real estate focus...I've listed a few of these as well, FYI. If anything here is not clear -- or if you need additional information -- just let me know, and I'll be happy to assist you further. Good luck in your ventures. pafalafa-ga ========== shop92805.com Anaheim, California shop92802.com Anaheim, California shop48413.com Bad Axe, Michigan shop15010.com Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania shop91505.com Burbank, California shop91502.com Burbank, California shop93012.com Camarillo, California shop93010.com Camarillo, California shop91709.com Chino Hills, California shop93612.com Clovis, California shop55016.com Cottage Grove, Minnesota shop92629.com Dana Point, California shop30097.com Duluth, Georgia shop55024.com Farmington, Minnesota shop93710.com Fresno, California shop55033.com Hastings, Minnesota shop55076.com Inver Grove Heights, Minnesota shop92620.com Irvine, California shop91011.com La Canada Flintridge, California shop91214.com La Crescenta, California shop92651.com Laguna Beach, California shop90028.com Los Angeles, California shop55425.com Minneapolis, Minnesota shop55402.com Minneapolis, Minnesota shop91020.com Montrose, California shop92660.com Newport Beach, California shop92663.com Newport Beach, California shop55057.com Northfield, Minnesota shop91325.com Northridge, California shop93950.com Pacific Grove, California shop91101.com Pasadena, California shop08540.com Princeton, New Jersey shop91701.com Rancho Cucamonga, California shop91730.com Rancho Cucamonga, California shop91737.com Rancho Cucamonga, California shop91739.com Rancho Cucamonga, California shop55066.com Red Wing, Minnesota shop55068.com Rosemount, Minnesota shop55102.com Saint Paul, Minnesota shop55107.com Saint Paul, Minnesota shop55110.com Saint Paul, Minnesota shop55118.com Saint Paul, Minnesota shop55125.com Saint Paul, Minnesota shop55128.com Saint Paul, Minnesota shop91340.com San Fernando, California shop95060.com Santa Cruz, California shop95062.com Santa Cruz, California shop93065.com Simi Valley, California shop55075.com South Saint Paul, Minnesota shop55082.com Stillwater, Minnesota shop91604.com Studio City, California shop91040.com Sunland, California shop91342.com Sylmar, California shop91042.com Tujunga, California shop91786.com Upland, California shop91784.com Upland, California shop95687.com Vacaville, California shop95688.com Vacaville, California shop90602.com Whittier, California shop28403.com Wilmington, North Carolina ========== Of course, there are other zip-code based sites besides just the "shop" sites.

Searching for localities at this Via5 site: http://12527.via5.com/regions/index944a.html will take you to what appears to be several hundred (maybe thousands) of zip code based sites. For instance, clicking on: Pennsylvania =====> Bucks County =====> Bedminster =======> takes you to the 18910 site for Bedminster, PA: http://18910.via5.com/ Some of the Via5 sites require a password to enter, like this one for 92661: http://www.92661.com/ I'm not sure what the password-sites are all about, but you can see the contact info for Via5 at the bottom of the 92661 site, if you want to call them for more information. ========== And lastly, there?s nothing really here at these sites, but I listed them anyway, FYI... http://www.zipcodebusinesses.com/ http://www.zipcoderealty.com http://www.81435.com/ http://www.10577.com/ http://www.10021.com/ http://www.33149.com/ ========== Again, let me know if you need any additional information.
