Marketing for the Realtor

By
Mortgage and Lending with Flagstar Bank

With the world of real estate taking a dramatic turn over the past year, referals are your best source of marketing. Many Wholesale Brokers look out for their own pockets and rely on Realtors to feed them loans each month. Of course, buying leads is a huge part of many with the refinance business gearing up. Personally, I would never invest in a Lead Program. I am not big on cold calling a client either. I want my service to speak for itself and I always get referals from my previous clients.

HOW I HELP MY REALTORS....

I work with some great Realtors and refer as many qualified clients to them than they send me. I beleive that investing in them is the best marketing that I can get. What do my Realtors get from me besides service? How about an expensive fruit basket delivered to my Borrower at work with referal cards in the basket that has the Realtor's name and contact info listed, not mine. I insure that each Borrower gives the referal gift to all their fellow employees from the very beginning. Does this work? Darn right it does. It is a small price to pay to insure the success of my Realtors. They sell more homes, I close more loans, I help my families and establish a relationship with that Borrower, Realtor and their friends and co-workers.

Invest $150-$200 per deal and market your Realtors!! This may be the best year ever for you too!!!

If there are any Realtors that want this type of service and the availability to sell a home to over 95% of their clients, give me a call or shoot me an email. I am a 24/7 Loan Officer that has direct Lending from a Bank and licensed in all 50 States. You will see the difference!!!!

I like the "market your realtors" strategy.

That's like the old saying, if you help others get what they want, in the process you'll get what you want.

Interesting that you suggest personal marketing. It's to opposite of what most people are doing. I like it.
