Well, the Richmond Times Dispatch has announced this Sunday that they are "changing the format" of the real estate section, and moving many of the sections to other parts of the paper. Just another sign of the times in the apparent demise of print media. It definitely is a mixed blessing (not the death of print media, but the change in format of the section). It sounds like they are going to make it like the "Celebrations" section, and have much more paid content, and much less "real" content. Unfortunately, I hate that section, and I don't even open it unless I know someone who is getting married that weekend.

The facts are, the world of real esate, as everything else, is changing, and we all have to keep up. You'll see more open house announcements via realtor.com, and other web sources, as well as other media that we may not even have yet, but most of this is going to help the consumer, so that's definitely good news for you!
