Real Realtors 027 | Facebook and Realtors

Hello podcast listeners. Before we get started, a reminder that you can visit my website MarcGuzman.com to view all my homes for sale and my rental properties. I usually have many apartments but as of today, I have more home listings than apartments. So refer those family and friends needing housing.   Facebook has been all over the news lately, but not in a good way. The recent revelations regarding Facebook and Cambridge Analytica has thrown the future of the social network in limbo. In addition, Facebook has been hit with a housing discrimination lawsuit based around their ad platform and real estate brokerages. If you are one of the many realtors or property managers who uses Facebook to conduct business, you might be wondering how Facebooks legal troubles could impact your business. Today, we welcome back Melodie Mills, Digital Specialist and founder of Mills Media, who specializes on using Facebook for business, to explain the Facebook's situation, as well as what you can do about it.
