On the flip side Trulia Voices is a great way for agents to actively interact with consumers who are interested in home buying or selling for free and for agents to demonstrate their knowledge to the millions of Trulia visitors. As the community grew, we saw that agents wanted to ask advice, socialize and ask each other questions, we didn’t have a place for them to do that. We responded to the requests from the members, it’s really that simple. This is just one of the many updates that you will see coming on Trulia Voices on 2008.

I share your frustrations with the Trulia Voices though. It would be nice to have a forum where 'real' consumers ask 'real' questions, and only 'true' professionals can respond with 'truthful' professional answers.

I think that much of this stems from the motivation of many of the consumers searching for property on Trulia are doing so specifically to avoid real estate professionals. Even when they use the forum to ask questions, they are predisposed to be wary of the answers of agents. Unfortunately, many of the agents to little to change that attitude with their answers. It is good to have professionals like you on there giving well-thought genuine answers. We'll see how Agent-2-Agent changes the atmosphere over at Trulia. . .
