So what are five reasons why someone should list their home in today's spring market, spring of 2025? I'm going to walk you through these reasons, and you can share them in an email, a newsletter, or your own video to your clients.

First, interest rates have come down from their highs. We're not at the peak anymore. In the past few weeks, rates have started to dip because there's talk of a potential recession. While a recession isn't great for the economy, it can actually benefit real estate by lowering interest rates. Buyers are catching onto this and becoming more active—more loan applications, more market activity.

Second, buyers are still out there. Despite everything happening in the economy, the job market, and beyond, people still want to own homes. Over 90% of American adults want to own a home—they're just trying to find a way to make it happen.

Hey guys, I want to give you a strategy as we head into the busiest season of the year for listings—February, March, April, and May. This is when the most homes hit the market, so it’s the perfect time to ramp up your efforts.

I’ve got two strategies that can help.

1. Create a Real Estate Resume

A real estate resume highlights your background, skills, education, and successes. Keep it simple—just a one-page document. You can use Canva, where you'll find plenty of great resume templates. Pick one, customize it, and build out your real estate resume.

This approach conveys authenticity and seriousness, distinguishing you from agents solely focused on humor or gimmicks.

By showcasing your dedication to your profession, you establish credibility and foster genuine connections. It's not just about being funny; it's about meaningful engagement. Th...
