How real estate agents can earn FAST money doing Leases

By
Real Estate Agent with Agent Referral Network

How to get a ton of new leads daily for leases in Orange County.

It is not rocket science, but doing leases can earn big dollars for the right real estate agents. In OC, you get between 2.5 and 3% of the lease term, which means big money with great volume.

So, a while back, I decided to so some local rental websites. (Example: http://orange-county-rentals.com). I had the websites and never did anything with them. I even ignored the calls that came in from them.

A friend of mine knew of the websites and wanted to partner for property management and rental company. He has an agent that said he would take on the challenge of handling all the rental leads in Orange County. I took out a week of my time and created an application that would spin off 350,000 unique ads I could place on various websites over the next several months.

After spending a tremendous amount of time on the project (and money), I launched. HOLLY COW!!! You could not image how busy it got in literally 24 hours after launching the marketing.

  • 35 Phone Calls
  • 7 online showing requests
  • 10 more info request

THIS HAPPENED ALL IN 1 DAY

So, the agent after less than 24 hours, said he CAN’T TAKE IT!!!  It was more than he can personally handle.

Here is real statistics for the traffic.  I use a url-redirect system to see click through and it tracks by ip address and where it originated from. I also installed zopim (live website chat) on the site as well.

Lease OC

In OC, the average lease amount is $2,800 paying 2.75% on the term of the lease. (12 months).  So if you lease a property, you can expect an average check for $924.  That’s great income considering with leases, you typically show 3 properties max and to multiple potential tenants at the same time.  If you do a couple a week, you are making great income and unlike when representing a buyer or seller in a 30 to 90 escrow, you get paid in days typically. Also, the smart agents will convert them into buyers down the road when they are ready!!!

So in order to turn my frown upside down, I decided to go a different route since the partnership was not going to work and I do not want to wait for him to take the time to put a team in place.

Each city has a separate subdomain for it.  Example: http://irvine.orange-county-rentals.com/ would be for the city of Irvine. Average Rent in Irvine is $3,005 per month. 

So if you are an agent that is ready to start doing leases or enhance your current lease business, then you will want what I am offering.

I will handle all marketing, generate leads and brand the city (cities) of your choice for a flat fee per month.  Pricing will vary upon how many cities you want, how long you are willing to commit (month to month, quarterly or annually, the average lease price and quantity of leases closed in the past 12 months. 

When I say brand, this means: update the subdomain site with your logo, your contact information, a couple paragraphs about you and the services you provide. I will also on the property management site, update information for that city page on the site as well branding you there too. I will ensure all contact, more info request, showing request, etc. are emailed you. So you get renters and property management for a low rate, which includes the most aggressive marketing strategies available to real estate agents

You get the site branded for you, all the marketing (I will put up hundreds of ads daily) and exclusive leads all for a low monthly price. Based on city and terms, between $40 and $70 per month. No other fees. This is all inclusive.  I guarantee results.  If you do not see leads within the first 30 days, then you can get a full refund and get all your money back.  I have sites for multiple counties in Southern California, and can easily set up sites and marketing for any county in California.

If you would like to know more, please let me know.

First saw the 2.5% and almost laughed until I saw the average rental prices... Nice! We average about 1500/mo and get 4.5-5% so a lot of folks don't play that game because of the lower commissions but you have a winner there with the higher numbers and quick turnaround too! congrats on your new niche!

Nice job Rose. Do you only do websites for California? I'd be interested in possibly getting a few sites for the Nashville area.
