    Default DallasRealtor.net for sale, spot #1 on google

    Note the realtor Trademark, so you have to be a realtor to own this... (ideally in dallas)

    Dallasrealtor.net

    keyword "Dallas realtor" and soon to be also "dallas realtors"
    spot #1 on google
    spot #1 on bing
    and spot #1 on yahoo


    site gets about 1-3 leads daily, would guesstimate about 2-4 closings a month would come from site.

    Dallas average is about $200k, so $12k - $24k in commissions monthly, though not looking for anywhere close to what the website and name are worth.

    The only group that can legally use that domain would be the Realtor Association of Dallas.

    An individual realtor can NOT use that domain, it's against NAR's terms.

    Realtors can only use the term Realtor in their domain name accompanied:
    1. Full Legal Name
    2. First Initial and last name
    3. First name and last intial

    So Jon Smith can have a domain
    realtorjonsmith.com
    jonsmithrealtor.com
    jsmithrealtor.com
    realtorjsmith.com
    jonsrealtor.com
    realtorjons.com

    They are VERY diligent about enforcing this. They have automated crawlers that search for improper domain names and if they haven't contacted you yet, it's just a matter of time before the site is shut down.

    Sounded like a really good deal but the information provided by USGlobal would make it not worth the risk. Good luck with everything.
