11 Things Your Buyer Presentation MUST Have Post NAR Settlement

 

Quick question:

What is in your buyer presentation right now?

With the NAR settlement just around the corner, you need to address what you’re doing about it. One thing you need to do is have your buyer presentation dialed in.

Here are 11 things to include in your buyer presentation post NAR settlement:

1. The Search Process: This can't just be you searching the MLS. Buyers can do that on Zillow or realtor.com. Go further by curating listings, hand-selecting the best fits, and commenting on each one. Be involved in the search process daily.

2. No Stone Unturned: The best listings sometimes don't hit MLS. Look at for-sale-by-owners, expired listings, and network with other REALTORS on coming-soon listings. Canvas neighborhoods to find potential sellers.

3. Research Process: Dive deep into any specific home you're interested in. Check permits, architectural plans, disclosure statements, plat maps, aerial maps, assessed values, and neighborhood trend lines. Interview...

92% of FSBOs End Up Working with REALTORS. Here Are Pro-Tips To Win Their Listing

 

Why do people try FSBOs instead of listing with a REALTOR?

The answer might surprise you…

A lot would assume it's all about commission, but only 40% of sellers do it for that reason. That means 60% don't!

Another interesting fact: Only 5% of people will never use a REALTOR. The othere 95% are open to it.

In fact, did you know 92% of FSBOs will end up working with a REALTOR?

The question is: Will it be you or your competitor? You need to reach out to them. There's a 4-6 week incubation period for most FSBOs. So, commit to working with them for that time.

When calling them, use this magic sentence: "I'm not calling to list your house. I respect your decision to sell on your own."

This will bring their defenses down. Then, ask to come by and take a look at their house. No pressure to list. It's about incubation and relationship-building.

If they decide to list with you, be ready for that conversation. Walk through the house, take notes, and casually ask if they might work with a...

How to Convert “For Sale By Owners” into Listings with these Proven Follow-up Strategies!

           

Congrats on meeting with a "For Sale By Owner." But what comes next? How do you stay engaged with them over the typical four to six weeks it takes for them to decide to list with a REALTOR—something that 92% of them eventually do?

Allow me to share a handful of strategies to maintain contact during this critical phase. It all begins with obtaining their permission for follow-up. Consider something like this: "While I'm not here to ask about listing, I can provide valuable insight on your competition. Want to know which listings are your peers' top choices? I'll send you the info, and I'll even pinpoint your strongest rival.”

Another approach is offering a full Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) or, as we term it, a Total Market Overview (TMO). If they mention having received CMAs already, you can explain the difference by saying, "I offer a TMO—Total Market Overview. It covers the national, state,...

Crack the Expired Listings and FSBO Code with these Cold Texting Strategies

             

Hey there, I've got a winning strategy for dealing with expired listings and for sale by owners:

Cold texting.

In today's age, people often ignore unknown calls. So, why not consider a more effective approach? Cold texting can be a game-changer, and adding a personal touch through video texts sets you apart.

Let's talk about expired listings. Craft a concise cold text, incorporating a hyperlink for more info.

For example: "Hey, I specialize in unique home-selling strategies. Want to chat? Check out my real estate resume here." (This link could lead to your LinkedIn or Instagram profile, even a Google Doc or a dynamic success portfolio.)

Alternatively, for a video text: "Thinking of relisting your home? Planning to interview new agents? Take a quick look at my marketing plan." This is especially impactful if you have a comprehensive 50-point marketing plan like the one in my coaching program. Showcasing...

Getting Your Foot in the Door with Tough FSBOs (Try This Script Today)

       

Let's say you have an active, qualified buyer who wants to live in a certain neighborhood. But you've shown them everything and can't find what they're looking for.

One technique to try is to identify any for sale by owners in that market that are either new for sale by owners or what I call "legacy" for sale by owners. Meaning, people that were on the market three, four, five, six months ago, even as much as a year ago.

We give you some great techniques to do that over erealestatecoach. But then the question is, what do we do once we are making the call to these for sale by owners?

What do we say to let them let us in the door? I'm going to give you the script that I'm going to put it down below. So you have it. And if you like this script, and you'd like to see more, I can share with you where you can find more of these scripts. But here is the script:

"Good morning. I noticed you have a home for sale in Laurelwood. And just wondering if...

Legacy For Sale By Owners

What is a Legacy FSBO?

This is someone that put their house on the market but then they got cold feet, or they got tired, or maybe frustrated so they removed their yard sign and threw in the towel.....but they forgot to remove their listing from all the places they may listed their home, places like FSBO.com, and others. (Google FSBO's in your city for a complete list of sites that may contain Legacy FSBO's)

This provides you with a unique opportunity to reach out to these potential sellers. For instance you might say something simple like:

"Hey, I just was doing some deep research in your neighborhood this morning and I noticed you had your home on the market last June. Just a quick question, would you still consider selling to a cash buyer? Would you still consider selling for the right price? Would you still consider selling to a qualified buyer? Because I've got a really strong group of buyers that are out in the marketplace looking right now. If you've ever considered, still...

đź’ˇ Three Ways to Use Other People's Listings as a Lead Magnet

The number one way to attract clients is with high quality inventory. So what happens when you are low on inventory?

Borrow a Listing

Of course you can borrow one from your own office colleagues, which is a common technique, but you can also borrow cooperating agents listings as well. To expand this concept you might target some of the top teams in your market and give them a phone call by saying:

"Hey, I'm looking to do some open houses this weekend, I know you have some great listings. Would you be open to allowing me to do an open house on one of your listings?"

You might be surprised to find that even though they have buyers agents sometimes these buyers agents are already busy, or they don't have enough manpower to do all the open houses they need to based on their listing inventory.

For Sale by Owner Open Houses

Another opportunity, which is really outside the box is to call For Sale by Owners in your market with this quick script:

"I have an out of the box question for...
