Listings are the key to your success! The Real Estate Market in North America has improved greatly over the past several months. The increased demand has been fueled by lower interest rates. Resulting in a rapidly shrinking inventory, making listings more difficult to get.
Front End vs Back End. There are two parts to every transaction. The “front end” of the transaction is everything that happens prior to the listing agreement being signed, like prospecting, lead follow up and prequalifying the seller. The “back end” is everything that happens after the listing contract is signed such as the servicing of the listing, negotiating the contract and seeing the transaction to closing. The past several years we experienced a back end market. It was easy to find a leads and listings were plentiful. The past few months we moved into a front end market.

Where are you spending your time? Homes are selling and closing quickly, however salable listings are more and more difficult to find. Less time is spent on the back end of the transaction and you must now focus on the ways and means to find that motivated seller.
It’s a numbers game. There is a direct correlation between the number of people you talk to and the results you get. Here’s the challenge, when inventory is low, expired and cancelled listing levels are low as well and For Sale by Owners have more success and need the help of a real estate agent a little less. When the market changes, be prepared to change with it.
How can you talk to enough people every day and continue to list salable listings? The answer… Just Listed – Just Sold calls! Just listed- just sold calls are warm calls. As a professional real estate agent, you offer valuable information to the prospect related specifically to them and their biggest asset…their home. Everyone want to know about the real estate market. How many times a day are you asked “how is the market?” By making warm just listed – just sold calls, you can build your business by taking the market to the consumer. Recently, we did a survey of 589 top producing agents who will close more than 50 transactions this year, and asked where there business came from. These agents identified over 35 different sources. The best two sources…Calling past clients and center of influence at 28% and Just Listed Just Sold Calls at 13%, followed by Expired at 11% and FSBO at 9%. That’s right **
What is your attitude about just listed- just sold calls? Are you excited and motivated about making these call or do you have the mindset that everyone will be rude and they don’t want to talk to you? The truth is that most of the prospects you speak with are generally nice and are interested in what you have to say. Remember, these are warm calls because you are sharing a topic that is meaningful to the prospect…real estate information about their area. Check your energy and enthusiasm to get the best results; no one wants to talk to someone who is negative. Here’s a top producer tip…when it comes to attitude, the energy you deliver mirrors the response you get. **
