Akron: House for sale gaining lots of 'Facebook friends'

AKRON -- Selling items on the Internet is certainly nothing new.

An Akron realtor has embraced the social media craze by taking advantage of Facebook to help sell homes.

Tuesday evening, the realtor invited hundreds of potential home buyers via Facebook to see the available house in person.

The realtor admits the home has not sold yet but it is getting "friended" by several people and potential buyers.
