Indirect Referral: Sold Our Home & Off to Arizona

For over four years, I've sat open house almost every weekday in Sun City West.  During that time I've had the opportunity to meet a number of really nice potential buyers.  Unfortunately most of these people needed to go back home and sell their house.  Today I received this email from a buyer that I showed properties to almost 2 years ago.  They have seen all of the Arizona West Valley retirement communities and decided on a home in Sun City West.

"Well, finally we sold our home here in Tennessee. Our closing is July 28th. So much to do & now for sure I won't be bored. We are flying out to Phoenix this Saturday to purchase our home in Sun City West. We know that our realtor, Leolinda will find us our retirement home. We will keep you all posted."

This email was sent to their friends and family as well as myself.  The email was addressed to almost 20 email addresses.  Wow, I am "their realtor"!

Good job, that was a patient 2 years.   Now as long as they don't wander off and buy a for sale by owner on the wrong side of the tracks......

Hi Leolinda,

Good for you!

Do you have referral connections (outbound) for others when they wind up at your open houses? You know there are alot of great connections right here in the Rain. You might consider that when meeting out of the area buyers.

Leolinda,

Congratulations.  You must have done a great job to keep them as clients and then to have them speak so highly of you.  After you sell them a home, and I bet you do, ask them for a testimonial.

It's days like these that make one grateful for doing the right thing all the time, regardless of immediate payback. It's obvious that the information you provided and time you spent with them in the past was really meaningful.

Gary, it has been my experience that I won't have to ask for a testimonial, they will ask me if they can write one.  :-)

Vickie, they told me another agent haphazardly showed showed them property.  They thought that the agent treated them disrespectfully because they still needed to sell their house.
