Well, we had one article in the St. Albert Gazette in early September… but it was buried under what has become the infamous Beekeeper photo (infamous in our little world).
But today. Ah, today. It is good. A normally solemn day (Remembrance Day) was brightened by a very nice article by Bill Mah in the Edmonton Journal.
The article was great. It was honest and accurate and fair, with a not-100%-glowing review from one of our top-rated agents, Bev O’Shea. Nice balance. We’ve been jumping around all day, watching the really great ratings (praising & criticising) roll on in. And the agent profiles. How nice!
The down side?
Ugh, perhaps the best known real estate agent in Edmonton was rated today. His rating is… not the worst, but definitely not the best. I hope that, if he’s really the best in town, some of his happiest clients come on the site and review him. I really don’t want to deal with arguing with anyone about the legitimacy of their reviews.
There are a few other not-so-great ones out there. Looks like we have a potential illegitimate to pull down (the property never actually sold), so we’ll have to get on that now.
Thanks so much to Bill Mah at the Edmonton Journal and Adrian Lam at the Victoria Times Colonist. Our little website appreciates it… and hopefully the clients who can now find top-rated agents appreciate it, too.
