Today I’m going to talk to about something very weird that is happening here.
So, here it is. If you are a Realtor in Dominican Republic you are facing a strong competition because it’s almost impossible to get any exclusivity agreement with the property owner. The properties ends up being for sale by more than 3 or 4 different real estate agent company at the same time. But, there is something even worst than that. And that thing is a consequence of that popular habit. Since there can be more than one Realtor trying to sale a property, then some other can fake being interested in buying or renting a house advertised by another realty company to get some informations about it without having to travel and get the informations on their own.
Being aware about that, we are going to implement a special feature on our property listing web site (DRListings.com) so that the IP number of any person making an inquiry will be stored for review if needed. Wew wew wew I see some people saying “Hey it against the personal privacy!”. Not really, the only thing that an IP number can tell is that a person was “seen” by our server as coming from a given IP number so in no way we will be able to track, hack or gater any other informations from that peson. If you have any argument against that feature, just comment on this post and try to convince me not to do it!
