Realtors can purchase displays by area or zip codes. When someone looks up homes in a certain zip code, that agent shows up next to all the listings--regardless if they're the listing agent or not (in most cases not). This showcases the agent as the local expert. these headers and sidebars are prime real estate (no pun intended) on Realtor.com and other real estate websites.

That analogy really summed up the argument and I guarantee folks are going to view working with the listing agent very differently now. I never realized that any agent can purchase the slot near a given listing. Learn something new everyday. Thanks again. Eddy Great article as usual.
