buyer: Home Buyer Stocking Stuffers (Holiday Tip #6) - 12/15/17 03:18 PM

Hey ActiveRainers,
Going out of your way to send a few quick, personalized home buyer updates (i.e. - listing suggestions that accurately fit their dream home expectations) will underscore your admirable commitment in landing them what they're looking for. 
Delivering HD Photos, accurate listing details (right down to the best schools nearby), critical neighborhood info, and every last option that's up their alley doesn't hurt either. ;-)

buyer: Home Staging: Make It Or Break It. - 12/12/17 01:40 PM

Hey ActiveRainers,
I decided to open up a topic that's already been extensively covered (yet unyielding in it's importance): essential home staging tips. 
We all know staging can (seriously) make or break a deal - thus, our need to underscore proper advice and empowering guidance.
When you have a quick moment, feel free to check out the infographic I created below. I'd love to hear your feedback and find out if there's anything in particular I missed in terms of preparation and coverage.
Do you agree and/or disagree with any/all of these?
What did I leave out that you find imperative in the process?

buyer: Black Friday? Black Winter! (Save $, Boost Listings) - 11/20/17 01:17 PM

Howdy ActiveRainers,
Ever wish Black Friday sales weren’t just a one day thing?
We feel the same way. That’s why ours extends through winter.
Let’s face it: the busy, expensive holiday season is followed by taxes soon after.
You need at least a couple of months to stock up on funds after holiday expenses (gifts, food, etc.), with an added peace of mind that your online marketing presence is as strong and effective as ever.

That means 2 free months of:

buyer: Politics aside, this is just bad news for your homebuyers. - 10/03/17 12:41 PM
Howdy ActiveRainers,
Quick question - how do “changes that would make homebuying less attractive” sound?* Yeah, not so pleasant. I know.
Yesterday I came across this headline: “The California Association of Realtors says the Republican Tax Reform Plan will eliminate the incentive for people to buy homes, shrink the middle class, and raise taxes on hundreds of thousands of California homeowners.” *
Irrespective of your political party affiliation(s), this (especially the parts about diminishing homebuyers’ motivation to purchase homes, and increasing taxes on homeowners) is pretty unsettling news, to say the least.
Inventory is already low. Your homebuyers, in particular, should (no, make that NEED to) feel energized and … (3 comments)

buyer: Homebuyer "Double Whammy" SOLVED. - 06/07/17 01:03 PM
 
Tim here, with some good news, and some bad news (re: your homebuyers).

- Bad news: The National Association of Realtors' chief economist reports that: "Prospective [home]buyers are feeling the double whammy this spring of inventory that's down 9.0 percent from a year ago..." (Source: https://goo.gl/gVkFSR) 
- Good news: there's an efficient and calculated way of providing homebuyers with every resource they need to secure their dream home (believe us, it's out there) AND ensure they turn to you when they're ready to sell, down the road.

From HD Photos, Videos and personalized MLS searches that meet their standards, to instant listing alerts and an easy-to-use … (2 comments)

buyer: Sellers Want Your "Complements", Today. - 01/23/17 05:13 PM
 
 
 
Hey ActiveRainers,

Tim here - with a quick heads up. This Tuesday, January 24th is National Compliment Day. Now, literal compliments are nice and all - but things that "complement" what your sellers and buyers need in life are even better. Agreed? 

So, send a compliment, a complement - or both. 
Here are the essential resources you need to complement your leads and clients.

buyer: Your Sellers Need To Lighten Up. - 12/20/16 05:47 PM
Hey,
 
Heads up: this Wednesday, December 21st marks both Winter Solstice (shortest day and longest night of the year) AND Look on the Bright Side Day.
Coincidence? I think not.
Your leads and clients will be deprived of extra daylight, which might make them extra cranky – especially if it’s chilly out.
So, what can you do to brighten their day?
You’re not God. You can’t manipulate the sun.
But you can provide a special type of brightness (the best and only kind that truly matters).
Get buyers and sellers turning to you this winter (and well into 2017)
with these quick, enLIGHTening tips (pun obviously intended).

Thank you,

Tim
Director of Marketing

February is almost over.  (Time flies, eh?)
Now is the time you should be getting noticed for the March and April Real Estate Rush
The real estate springtime rush is almost here- which means you need make sure your pipeline is fully nourished for spring.

This means you have about 1 month from today to let your past clients and leads know that you are their agent. … (0 comments)

buyer: Don't Fall Into This Dangerous Trap - 07/23/14 08:29 AM
Do You Have A Shortsighted View
on Marketing? Capturing the low-hanging fruit, the people ready to make a move, is a no-brainer. Why not just concentrate on those? It's an easy trap to fall into.
