Change from Google Voice to 1-800 number

[Gian Franco Saglimbeni]

Hi, I have Google Voice for my business, but I'm thinking on change to a 1-800 number to look more professional. 

Should I do it?

It depends who your customers are. If you a RE agent and your customers are home buyers/sellers they are more comfortable with a local area code phone number and don't like 800 numbers.

Thank You Sammy.

One of the business I have is a property management, is a small operation but I'm trying to give a good service. I don't want to give the tenant my personal number and Google Voice gave me a Area code far away from my location, that's one of the reason. Also I understand that the 1-800 can improve my business credibility.
