on your Buyers or Sellers contact form, do you require phone numbers to be provided or just the basic First, last name with Email .... and should I require Phone number from now on?

and should I require Phone number from now on?

and risk losing that contact?

I say no, you are lucky just getting an email address. Ask for the telephone number in the first email response.

Provide a field so that those that don't mind will fill it in, but those that don't want to, still will send you email etc

I currently require NO fields, but have fields available for phone and email (whichever type is convenient to the consumer). About 35% -40% of the time they provide phone numbes as well.

It kind of tips my agents off as to how serious they are...we respond differently to those who provide a lot more info than the rest because we know that they are likely at a decision point. (We do respond quickly to all of them...)

Best;
