| My cold call experience after a month. Posted: 20 Feb 2021 08:29 AM PST I've done it for over a month. Monday through Friday, I call at least 30 numbers from a dialer. Takes me about 20-40 minutes depending on the amount of numbers I call. I do not call DNC listed numbers. Without going into too much detail, my plan was to cold call to build an army of follow ups and relationships for when people will be ready. And that's exactly what happened. Currently, I'm sitting with a very large number of people that'll be ready in 2-24 months. It's actually insane how much potential clients are out there. I get at least 1 lead a day doing it. In combination with my open houses, I anticipate come spring to be very busy. Hopefully they continue to answer my follow up calls. I did get a listing appointment, but then he cancelled. I wasn't surprised because the seller had some confusing history selling his home before and all of them leading to cancelled. But you can get people who are ready to go right away, but it's rare. This is definitely more for setting up a database for your CRM to do follow up calls, which I do think is the right way to generate clients. It just keeps the pipline going. [link] [comments] |
| Pending sale, now buyer’s want to bring in a contractor. Why am I getting bad vibes? Posted: 20 Feb 2021 08:46 AM PST Buyers have been trying to find more faults with the house ever since the inspection report came back saying we need to " repair or replace" practically every system under the roof. The inspection even had us replacing new fixtures that were clearly new! They wanted $49,000. We offered 10k and now they need to bring in a contractor to measure for their dream en suite bath etc. I think they are really looking to find additional issues to use as leverage against us for another price reduction. Of course they are hinting they'll have to walk if not allowed in. So what are your thoughts about having this guy and buyers back in the house? Pour on the advice. Thanks [link] [comments] |
| Should I become a real estate agent while being in a military household? Posted: 20 Feb 2021 06:20 AM PST Hello. I'm currently in the VA ANG. I live in GA with my boyfriend who is active duty military. We just got PCSed here so we may be here 2-3 years. Possibly more if the military says so. I know each state has different requirements for becoming a real estate agent, but I want to be a real estate agent. Would it be worth the effort to become one if I'm possibly moving every 3-5 years? Also, if anyone is a GA real estate agent, do you have any advice or helpful tips to becoming one? [link] [comments] |
| What lead generation have you done? Posted: 20 Feb 2021 07:27 AM PST I have been looking into becoming a realtor. I've talked to a local realtor and done the research on getting a license. Before I actually go about getting licensed I want to do aome research into lead generation. Besides cold calling, door knocking , and lead gennerating websites what other ways have you used?

| Posted: 20 Feb 2021 10:59 AM PST Hey so I'm doing a class to get my real estate license. I live in and I'm getting my license for Arizona. It's a 90 hour course, all online. I'm doing the class and it's all very simple concepts and then there's the vocabulary for the very specific terms that are used. I understand the concepts and all of the questions and progress checks thus far are based around concepts and don't use much of the niche vocabulary, however I am taking it on myself to learn all the vocabulary in its entirety and completeness, even perhaps above what is expected. Im spending like 3 times the amount of time as the lessons on learning all the exact terms, I'm retreading all the chapters at least twice. I'm just wondering if I'm overthinking it, I mean obviously I will keep putting in a lot of effort as there's a lot on the line with real estate and I want to serve people the best I can, but as real estate people what do you guys think? What knowledge do you use most on the course and state tests and what do you use most in the practice of real estate management? Thank you all in advance <3 [link] [comments] |

| Advice for Being Your Own Buyer's Agent Posted: 19 Feb 2021 04:00 PM PST I'm planning to put an offer in on a withdrawn home. There are currently tenants in the home who, if my offer were accepted, would have their lease expire two months after closing. I'm pretty savvy with rentals, but not so clear on the nitty gritty details of transferring a lease once the home is bought (for example, does the security deposit get transferred over to me, etc?). My plan is to do inspections and negotiate from there. I have a feeling there are going to be some repair issues (there's a couple of spots on ceilings and below the existing bathroom that may indicate water damage, so I'd like to get those checked out). My partner couldn't be the in the basement because they believed they smelled mold and were having a reaction. My brokerage would collect 5% on this transaction. (EDIT: Of the total 2.5%, so it ends up being somewhere around $500). What was your experience with buying a home where you represented yourself? Is there anything in my particular situation that you think I should be careful about or watch for? Thank you! [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 19 Feb 2021 02:49 PM PST Is it common to work for a brokerage that doesn't provide leads? What do you use for lead generators? [link] [comments] |
| Has anyone ever heard of a career coach/therapist hybrid? Posted: 19 Feb 2021 04:13 PM PST My success is wound up w my self-esteem, so I'm sure there are overlapping areas of expertise. Any recommendations? [link] [comments] |
| Food & Beverages at Open houses? Posted: 19 Feb 2021 04:52 PM PST Does anyone serve food and beverage at their open houses? Even pre Pandemic, most visitors wouldn't accept anything. I would try Pre-package trail mix or bars, bottle water, soda, candy without much success. I've stopped doing it and it doesn't seem to bother anyone. Anyone having success with this or other give-aways? [link] [comments] |
| Question about joining Keller Williams Posted: 19 Feb 2021 06:45 PM PST So, in mid-summer 2019, I applied to a Keller Williams ad on indeed. I met with people from the "education team" and was convinced to get licensed through one of their sponsored RE schools (at a discount) and ended up signing some paperwork. The way someone explained it to me, whatever I had signed, meant that "I will be a 1099 w/ KW once I am licensed and everything is good to go"...ok great! Fast forward to now, all I have is my completed coursework. (COVID, and life happened) I still need to study up and pass my test. But here's my question: is there anyway to back out of this? Can I get licensed and join an independent team as an assistant? I would first like to slowly get a secure salary position in real estate at least for a year before jumping head first into the business. I have nothing against Keller Williams, I just don't want to feel obligated towards them after I'm licensed. How does this work? Any advice is appreciated. [link] [comments] |
| Representing a buyer on an offer for a new construction home Posted: 19 Feb 2021 06:41 PM PST Hoping to get some advice. My first time making an offer for a buyer on a new home that was just built and ready to move in. I know in real estate everything is negotiable but what does the buyer usually ask for on a a new construction home that's ready to move in? Is asking them to pay closing cost and title policy standard and home warranty? What else? Want to make sure I ask for everything that should be asked for and not sound crazy. Thanks. Edit: Texas property is $350k [link] [comments] |
| What are you posting on social media? Posted: 19 Feb 2021 05:28 PM PST New realtor here. It's important to me to have a presence on social media, but I'm not quite ready to create my own content yet. As I only have buyer clients at this point, I have no listings of my own to post. Those who are active on social, what are you posting and where do you find it, and what kind of engagement have you received from prospective clients? [link] [comments] |
| Any TX lenders you all can recommend? Posted: 19 Feb 2021 04:21 PM PST Realtor, but looking for mortgage lender recommendations. Had worked with Guild Mortgage out of SA and had good experiences, but the lady that I dealt with left the company and I don't know where she went to. Using local offices at the moment, but tired of the small companies whose personal problems become my problems if that makes sense and would prefer a serious company that for lack of better phrasing, "gets shit done". Thanks in advance. [link] [comments] |
