Mark Bartikoski on Listing Syndication

RE/MAX Results agent Mark Bartikoski is no stranger to the listing presentation table. Mark has been with RE/MAX for over 20 years.

We spoke with him last week about how he is using listing syndication to gain clients and his perception that with the change in Edina Realty’s stance on listing syndication that their agents are “bringing a knife to a gun fight”

“Using listing syndication in my listing presentations is an important tool and it has certainly helped us get many listings away from our competitors.”

“In working with expired listing clients, this is information that they never knew. Obviously an Edina Realty agent doesn’t sit down and tell you you’re not going to be on most of the biggest real estate related websites on the Internet. And clients are frankly quite surprised by that.”

“ I think it all comes down to exposure – the more exposure the better. And if you list with EdinaRealty.com, you’re not going to be on some of the biggest sites on the Internet… This information should be incorporated into every RE/MAX agent’s listing presentation. If you’re going to be competing against an Edina [Realty] real estate agent, there should be no question that RE/MAX is the way to go.”
