Written Communication Skills

By
Education & Training with Rowlett Real Estate School

Letters, e-mail, flyers, and other forms of written communication are often the first impression licensees make on members of the public. Bad grammar and misspellings may reflect poorly on the licensee and the brokerage firm. Written communications skills are even more important for writing a contract provision. An ambiguous clause may result in a lost sale, a lawsuit, and disciplinary action by the FREC.

Written communication skills may be enhanced by taking courses at community colleges, by reading books to improve writing skills, or by purchasing a book of ready-made real estate letters, such as Power Real Estate Letters, by William H. Pivar (Dearborn Real Estate Education). A dictionary, a spell-checker, and a grammar checker on a software program are minimum requirements for achieving better written communication.

It's not all about selling a home. I have to work on my communication skills too.

Ah Cap Wayne, written communication is becoming a lost art,,,proper writing, spelling, grammar...??? has become such a rare commodity that people seem not to recognize or care about the difference anymore...this is very concerning to me.  Thanks for bringing it up.
