“The slow season.” Online agent advice about what to do during these months (make a huge marketing push, nurture your sphere, etc.) is pretty much what they recommend during the busy season, right? But what about settling in, reading some real real estate articles and learning some new tricks for the spring?
Sometimes, it’s okay to make like a bear and trudge through the snow until you find a cozy cave in which to crash for a time. Sometimes, you have no choice.
Whether you plan on trying to drum up business or you’re considering kicking back, we hope you’ll take some time to learn something new, helpful or just fun.
We’ve rounded up seven blogs that post high quality real estate articles you might be interested in following. Our criteria for which ones made the list was pretty simple.
The blog has to offer value, whether that’s new insights, education or humor. If a blog has a paywall or is overly enthusiastic in its use of pop-ups (in other words, annoying as hell), it didn’t make the list.
For a harder working real estate website, be sure to consider LeadSites.
Our top 7 blogs for the slow season – with some real estate articles to get you started:

Real Estate Daily
This one helps keep up with news as well as offering insights few other sites do. The real estate articles are quite short, though, often leaving us wanting more.

Lighter Side of Real Estate
Sure, you’ll find basic consumer-focused posts and agent advice at Lighter Side of Real Estate, but we go there for the laughs. There is some seriously funny real estate humor going on in the “Humor” section.
Only thing we don’t like is that the page anticipates you’re leaving (even when you’re not) and an inescapable pop-up pops up with no navigation function. Your only choice is to refresh the page or move on.
