real estate: Pricing Strategy - Which Do You Subscribe To, If Any, And Why? - 07/27/08 07:34 PM
Pricing Strategy - Which Do You Subscribe To, If Any, And Why?
$349,877
$349,900
$350,000
Where do you price your listing? What is your reasoning?
Our understanding, and the "history" of our pricing strategy goes a little something like this...
When we first entered the real estate business, we were taught to price our listings at $349,900, for example. That's because the MLS Book was still in use, and the computerized MLS was "fairly" new. We were told that if we priced it there, then it would show up "before" the other listings, priced at $350,000, in the MLS Book. If ours … (7 comments)

real estate: TOP STORY: Rates Creep Up - 07/14/08 06:59 AM
TOP STORY: Rates Creep Up
A recent survey and a rate increase could mean more competition for homes
Recent indication is that first time home buyers are getting tired of sitting on the sidelines. According to a recent online poll taken by the National Apartment Association, 17 percent of renters plan to make the jump to home ownership in the next year; 41 percent of the 2,041 respondents planned to be home owners within two years. Only 31 percent planned to still be paying rent five years from now.
Another factor that could very soon contribute to an increase … (3 comments)

real estate: What Interest Rates Really Mean - 06/09/08 08:18 AM
What Interest Rates Really Mean
The Fed did this! The Fed did that! Rates are up! Rates are down! Aaaagggh! Okay, now exhale. In turbulent economic times the media can't wait to report what interest rates are doing. Pundits prognosticate, forecasters forecast and soothsayers sooth. When should you buy a home based upon interest rates and when is it the right time?
The fact is that interest rates, while important, have little impact when it comes to buying a home. Alright, alright, I'll admit: it's important...but it's not a deal-killer.
There is a fixation on what rates are doing. A … (0 comments)

real estate: We Do...Do You? - 05/30/08 05:28 PM
What is it that we do?
We do at least an hour of focused lead generation every morning that we work! Our "Power Hour."
The idea is simple. Each morning between 9 am and 10 am, we start our day with an hour of focused lead generation. The results are simple too: we close more deals and make more money.
We are trying to reach our past clients and sphere of influence (SOI) personally. It is no longer good enough to simply leave a message on their voicemail.
When we get them on the phone, we:
Thank them for their past business and support. Let them … (1 comments)

real estate: How Do I Attract More "Perfect" Clients? - 05/29/08 08:24 PM
Have you ever had a "nightmare" client? Someone who makes it really difficult to do your job? Someone who makes it hard to smile when you're dealing with them? Someone who causes you a LOT of stress? Someone who maybe even makes you second-guess yourself?
No matter what your business, if you interact with the public, then you probably "bump heads" with your clients on occasion.
So then, how can you minimize that friction? The answer is by attracting more "perfect" clients.
The next question, then, is how do you do it?
Define what you want. As an example, this is how … (4 comments)
