Narrow Casting to Generate More Listing Leads
We have all been trained to do just listed and just sold campaigns - question - is it working?
Narrow casting is a new twist on old fashioned just listed and just sold canvasing. The technique is designed to narrow the field down to a handful of neighbors closest to your listing or the listing you are attempting to sell. The key is immediacy. Your contact with the neighbors is highly targeted and related to recent activity.
Watch this three minute video to explore three scripts you can use this week to begin using the Narrow Casting technique in your own market.

How to Move Sellers Off the Fence Using the DELTA Script
We are going to wait until spring, or summer, or until we can "get our price"....
Have you had a seller say these words to you? Sellers often wait for what they perceive to be a better time to sell. They believe that by waiting they will have a market advantage or net more money at closing.
But waiting is often not in the clients best interests especially if they plan to move up to a more expensive tier of housing. By using the DELTA script you can quickly and easily demonstrate to a seller that waiting not only delays their plans it can also cost them thousands of dollars.

How to Easily Overcome Zestimates with Buyers and Sellers
But Zillow say's the house is worth .....
At some point you will hear a buyer or seller say these words to you. How you respond can determine if you will gain a client's trust or potentially lose a listing or a sale. Ultimately buyers and sellers are driven by a need to feel confident in their decision making. What they are looking for is clarity and certainty. This is often why they go in search of answers from sites like Zillow and why they sometimes embrace Zestimates.
To be viewed as a real estate expert it's important to define yourself as someone who provides not just information but more importantly interpretation of data. You are the consultant, the adviser, and most importantly the clients advocate.
Watch and learn as Jim uses Zillow's own website against them by utilizing the Zillow Accuracy Chart as well as powerful scripting.
