Recently while attending an all day webinar I learned even more ways to utilize Twitter for lead generation in real estate. One recommendation was to find tweeples (or people that use twitter) who are searching for homes in your area. There are endless possibilities for what groups of people you may want to follow, but chances are you want to stay in your geographic area. Now there is a simple way to find those twitter users.
A new Twitter application called GeoChirp uses Google maps to pinpoint the most recent tweets from a zipcode. You can set it to search within a 1 to 50 mile radius.
The example given on GeoChirp’s website states:
if you want to search for people Tweeting about ‘Golf’ in Richmond, Virginia, you can just select the area in the map, set the radius within 1-50 miles of that area, enter the keyword “Golf” or any other related keyword and BOOM you have all the people Twittering about ‘Golf’ in Richmond, Virginia.
So you just set the location, set the filter and see the results. This is a powerful tool and can connect you to hundreds, even thousands, of potential home buyers in your area.
