- Description
- 30 Year Veteran in the business. Background in New Construction development and sales. Now in the business of sales technique training and coaching. Specializing in course development for new agents.
The Wonderful World of Real Estate
The Real Estate World is going through major change. As a 27 year veteran I try to immerce myself in that change. New agents come on board in my company today with links to running loops of advertising their product on utube and experienced agents find it difficult to use virtual tours, websites and more than one picture. Ultimately our job must be kept in perspective. If we take on the job of listing a property, our job is to expose that property to as many qualified buyers as we can. If the seller can get more money by having pictures taken early or late in the day to take advantage of refracted light, if we need to take a little time to turn on indirect lighting in a room rather than overhead to set a mood for an Internet picture, we need to realize, the buyer, on average 25 years to 30 years old, will come look at that home, if it is attached to a map, and has pictures. That buyer, 24% of them according to Century 21 will actually find the home they wish to purchase online! Maybe we as agents, trainers, coaches, mortgage people, need to get busy doing what today's technology is providing, maybe we should give buyers all of the information and resources they would like to have access to online, and maybe we should realize, nothing much has really change except the mileage we drive. People purchase by comparison, this is a complicated transaction and they do feel more comfortable using us than not, and lets give them the control they want, let them take the wheel, and help them on their mission of home ownership. We are valuable if we keep our skills sharp and our minds open.
Areas of Expertise
I am a sales technique career coach in real estate. My background is in Real Estate since 1980. I started my career working for the number one Century 21 Firm in New England and became the top agent. Most of my success came from getting involved in New Construction development and sales. Today, I am very proud to work for the number one Century 21 Firm in New England! I coach and train new agents. I also manage our new construction subdivisions. I run a Principles and Practices school and I develop and train real estate agents with the purpose of getting success fast. A very needed thing in a 100% commission career! As an experienced top agent, much of what I share is my own expertise, but I have been trained and continued to by mentored by Ralph Williams of Bottom Line University in Texas. Ralph was the top agent in the entire Century 21 system his first year in Real Estate and is the most amazing sales technique coach I have ever learned from. Our agents have the opportunity of working with Ralph Williams and to be honest it is his mentoring that has really been the behind the scenes success in our company and our training.
