TURN YOUR LISTING INTO YOUR OFFICE!

If any of you agents are like me, then you work out of home most of the time. Working from home is fine but to me is no different than working out of an office because you can get distracted at either place. At home my angels/devils may make alot of noise and at the office other agents make alot of noise which is fine sometimes because you may come across an agent who may have a buyer for your listing or vice versa but working out your listing especially if it's vacant is great because you can meet clients or potential clients. While you're there be sure to put your open house signs out that way you get the right distractions plus you're giving the listings more exposure especially if you're working on a Tues, Wed or whatever but if you're going to be at a desk anyway then turn it into a open house. You can get a small folding chair and table and keep those in you vehical at all times so you're ready to go to work you have what you need and if you're wireless it's perfect. So for those who have no listings I'll be more than happy to let you sit on mine and If I'm out of your area ask your colleagues I'm sure they will have no problem letting you hold an open house for them.

I like this idea. In fact, a recent sale I did the buyer and seller side due to being at the property just hanging out. I was sitting in my car on the phone and the buyer came up. She was looking at the property so I get out of car and said to her would you like to see it. She bought it. So you do have a good idea. Great Post.

I have a strong opinion on the subject.  Instead of sitting at home I can sit at the office on the computer and maybe pick up a walk-in client.  If I sit at a listing I may sell the home or pick up a walk-in client.  I do not like to sit at home on the computer except after hours.

Good point if you're the floor time agent. My office has 200 agents so if I'm not the floor time agent I may not get the walk in but at the open house I'm usually by myself

More agents are using this theory of having someone else sit in on their open houses.  It works for new agents with "no business" yet and for your sellers who want an open house done on their home.
