endeavor11 0 Report post Posted February 23, 2010 In my area (socal), I am finding that 90% or more rental ads in Craigslist are either listings by realtors or property management companies. Is this what you guys are experiencing as well? If so, where are you guys finding FRBO leads? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MichaelC 160 Report post Posted February 24, 2010 Yes, the Realtors and Agencies have overrun Craig's List, unfortunately. The site has at least broken down for sale listings between FSBO's and Brokers. Not so for FRBO's, so we have to weed through many ads to find the ones by owner.

Herbster I'm finding out that realtors are also listing in the real estate for sale "by owner" category. No shame for some of these agents. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They have no shame. When I see that, depending upon my mood, , I may report the ad as miscategorized and move on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It appears as if Craigslist will only take down or ghost posts by unlicensed peons like us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
