Selling a home? Thanks to the web, your job just got a little easier…
New website, postlets.com (currently in beta), streamlines the process of placing classified ads across multiple websites. Here’s a list of the sites they currently work with to eliminate those reduntant practices of yesteryear:
craigslist
backpage.com
LiveDeal
Google Base (automatic submital)
Oodle (automatic submital)
Trulia (automatic submital)
Propsmart (automatic submital)
Real Estate agents have lost some of their value with a site like Postlets; but they may not be the only ones who may need to be concerned. Listings are created in one of three categories: cars & trucks, rentals, and real estate.

Don’t worry about a steep learning curve; they claim the service is so straight-forward that even a monkey can use it, but I don’t suspect we’ll see many listings from Chiquita any time soon.
I’ve also scanned their privacy policy and it seems that they are playing fair, here are a couple of snippets that I thought might be cause for some minor concern:
If at some point Postlets sells all or a portion of its assets, or merges with another entity, user information is an asset that may be transferred or acquired by a third party. We will notify all affected users of any such transaction, and users will have the opportunity to retrieve their user information and cease usage of the service…
Postlets will never sell, rent or share your personal information with any third parties for marketing purposes without your express permission.
I’m looking forward to having an excuse to use this valuable new site. It’s a truly useful tool for real estate agents, for-sale-by-owners (FSBO’s) & anyone else looking to syndicate their products.
