advice: FSBO HELP? COLD CALLING - 02/16/09 02:37 PM
Good Afternoon,
 
Today I spent the morning out cold calling and trying to make things happen, Calling FSBO's, knocking on doors and calling past clients and asking for referrals.
 
One thing I noticed I need improvement on is calling on the FSBO's.  How do you get the most out of calling on them?  I know you can't expect a listing the first time you call and its all about catching the owners at the right time. 
 
So I just want to hear some past success storys or advice from everyone?

Once again I've had some real great advice from all of you but the one that really caught my eye was this and thought I would Share it with other.
 
Get a lender, inspector, appraiser, etc. to sponsor a first-time home buyer seminar.  They put up the money and you put it together and you're the Realtor for the Q & A.
  
Although I think it is a great idea and I have already contacted a lender and they love the idea as well, we are having a little trouble finding a way to market it and get people … (2 comments)
