Great comments everybody, and please keep them coming! After we get some more feedback, I'll consolidate everything and see what appears to be the best route to take.

Thanks!

I could write a book on this, so I'll make it short.

Brent I think you should use YOUR profile only for things you have written.

I think you should publicize the MFI fan page for the following reasons:
-Promoting MFI (which is a business) through a profile is a Facebook term of service violation.
-Pages communicate by “updates” which show up the same as a profile as far as fans are concerned
-Fans are given the option to opt-in as a fan without giving access to their personal profile (leasing agents may not want to friend someone in the industry) - being a fan is 1 sided.
-Fan pages allow application add ons which make it easy to integrate other marketing efforts (RSS feeds, flick photos, events)
-Admins of pages can see visitor statistics – post quality and interactions for the week.
-Facebook ads may be purchased (pretty cheap) to promote fan pages
-Pages allow more flexibility with content creation - usual wall, discussion board, video and photo uploads.

I know I am more inclined to read through things that come from a personal page. I would go that route if I were you!

I had the same problem for my account versus my properties account so I deleted my personnel account(opened a new one for only family and friends)and sent a message on my property account for networking, community and residents this has actually helped a lot plus every time I comment it pushes the property more.
I use my fan page to promote and my property page for communications I have found more folks are willing to be fans than friend when it comes to promotions.

Hope this helps
