Stay off the ‘net: New Augusta Real Estate listings sent straight to your inbox!
Caroline Ashe Your Source in Augusta, GA Real Estate October 1st, 2007
In my effort to provide the top website in Augusta for real estate services, I’ve never stopped trying to improve. I’ve been frequently updating the real estate content and information, with the aim of improving the usefulness of the site itself; and working on the ‘back-end’, to provide more functionality for my clients.
After all I don’t call the website Elegant Augusta Real Estate because I sell high-end homes, I call it Elegant because I provide the best service. Whether I am helping you with a $50,000 transaction or a $500,000 transaction, my desire is to provide you with the absolute highest quality real estate representation in Augusta.
That motivation applies to my online home as well, and we implemented a major update to NorthoftheSavannah.com recently. As many of our registered users found out over the weekend, the website now sends new listing updates to saved searches by email. Lets say you have a saved search titled, “Evans GA real estate between $200 – $250 with 5 bedrooms” with those particular features included in your search criteria.
Once your search is saved on NorthoftheSavannah.com, every day that new listings fitting your search criteria are posted on the GAAR-MLS, you will be sent an email with information on the new homes. The email includes a photo and a quick summary on each of the newly listed houses fitting your search. When the best homes in the area come up for sale, you can be right there to move quickly! How awesome is that?!?
You will only be sent one email per day, unless of course you have multiple searches saved on the site and more than one search has new listings. If there are no new listings, you will not get an email.
Each of the new listings will have a MLS # heading. That number will be clickable and take you straight to the home details here at the website. And of course, at the bottom of the email is a clearly visible ‘unsubscribe’ link. The important thing is that you leave an email address you check frequently so you can receive the listing updates!
I hope that you will find this new feature useful. The competition doesn’t sit still and I don’t either. Continuous improvement is what it’s all about and I want to do the best I can do for my clients.
I hope you enjoy the website, and if you have any questions, please give me a call anytime!

Our clients love that feature, almost like fast food. Made to order. lol
I really wish there was that sort of system for commercial real estate. I’d love to have a commercial IDX on our website.
At a recent meeting a realtor told me about a website that has helped him and other realtors sell homes quickly. Its kinda like ebay – 321gone.com It has a countdown counter and is comprised of motivated seller listings. It’s a fresh idea that is well overdue in the real estate industry and it now has Georgia as one of its searches.
Our MLS has a feature similar to that but it’s very clunky and difficult to use. I’ve hired a programmer who is basically building our own version as well as a client management/drip email system which should be significantly more user friendly. We should have the new features built into our site within the next month.
