While we have always been extremely good about keeping our listings updated with agent information, one simple practice we recently implemented has saved us countless hours. More importantly, we have saved other agents the same amount of time in unnecessary calls, emails and frustration.
Every morning with my coffee (a must have), I update our active listings with the date and status in the private remarks (for agents) of the MLS. The date is the most important part because it lets other agents know that this is the status TODAY, not the last time I had time to update my listings.
Now, instead of the phone ringing off the hook with questions like "Are you sure its active? How many offers do you have? Where do we need to be?", we answer them every day in our private remarks.
May 16 Update: Active, multiple offers received. There is still time to submit. Email Nancy@TheOCExperts.com for disclosure form before submitting offer. Call or email (preferred) with questions, but we do not disclose number or amount of offers. Thanks for showing!
Hope this simple tip helps some frustrated listing agents out there.
Have a great day!
