If you aren’t doing the kind of business you want…it might be time to change

If you aren’t doing the kind of business you want…it might be time to change

I believe someone once said The definition of insanity is doing the exact same thing that you have been doing and expecting a different result. How does this affect you?

You can sit and whine about “how bad the market is” or you can start taking some action and some responsibility that things aren’t like they used to and more work is needed to generate the same or less business than before. So what can you...

Need Help Picking The Right Property Management Software?

My brother and I love software. There are times though when you just dread having to make sure you evaluate the software that you need. I mean who really wants to spend the time visiting website after website and comparing different pieces of software. Before anyone starts telling me all of the different sites available that compare software let’s talk about a few industries that it is hard to find software for: Construction Industry Medical Software Retail software All of these industries... 

This Just In… Generate More Leads

This Just In… Generate More Leads

In case you didn’t know it you need to be generating more leads than ever before. Most of us are facing a sinking budget or we are at a $0 budget so now we have to generate more with even less and unless you love making “cold calls” then the options you have are winding down. I would suggest that the only way to avoid having to leave real estate is to work on generating as many leads as you can with the lowest budget possible. So let’s cover a few things that will allow you...

REO Buyers Aren’t Liars They Just Need to Be Asked the Right Questions

My brother and I hear all the time “Buyers are Liars” and these days we hear “REO\Bank Owned Buyers are Liars”. Ready for the truth? They aren’t lying so much as they aren’t telling you the whole story. I know you might be thinking that is the same thing but stay with me here for a minute. REO Buyers are primarily looking for one and only one thing: The greatest deal that they are ever going to get in their lives! Just about every buyer who is interested in buying... 

Who cares if you were “Top Producer” get over it and start selling today

Who cares if you were “Top Producer” get over it and start selling today

That’s right I don’t care if you were a Top Producer and I don’t care what you sold last year. The reason is you can’t use that to sell homes this year. Just because something worked last year doesn’t mean it is going to work this year. By the way I don’t even know what a Top Producer is anyway so get over what this means and just start getting back to business. Why am I saying this? Well my brother and I have been doing a few training seminars on “12 ways...

No one likes being told what to do

No one likes being told what to do

Remember when you were a kid and your parents told you exactly what you had to do? You didn’t like being bossed around, told what to do, and having absolutely no power whatsoever. It was a feeling of helplessness. If you didn’t feel that way I envy you because my brother and I did and we always stuck together to see what we could get out of. As an adult no one likes being bossed around. Sure every once in awhile someone has to tell us how to do something that we asked them for but we...

How about working with a motivated buyer who actually wants to get things done? There “buyers” out there who are really just browsers and then there are buyers who just want to get something done. Some of these people are searching all over the Internet, newspapers, & driving around town to find the house they want and they still don’t have an agent yet! Why don’t these people have an agent? Sometimes these people don’t have an agent yet because they think they don’t...
