Know the Benefits of Working with a Real Estate Team
Working with a real estate team does provide numerous advantages, especially as a new agent. The advantages of joining an existing real estate team include:
- Connecting into solid business systems
- Connecting into lead management systems
Most teams will have an administrator and staff in place to ensure your real estate career is off to a great start. This will allow you to see that growth sooner, as opposed to being on your own.
Some of the drawbacks of being a solo real estate agent can be:
- Being unclear about your daily tasks. Without having a team structure, some agents tend to flounder around by not knowing what it exactly is that they should be doing on daily basis.
- Not knowing the business. It helps having a support system when writing a purchase agreement or filling paperwork to ensure you’re advising your clients correctly and working within the confines of the law.
If you are working as a solo agent and you’re thinking about joining a team, we would love to speak with you – even if you just would like to know more about the business! Stay tuned for more videos educating you on starting your business or learning some tools of the trade.
Thanks and have a great day!
Prospecting is the Life-Blood of Your Real Estate Business
Welcome to our recruiting blog here at Peterson Goff in Sioux Falls. We're just going to be sharing tips on how to make real estate agents more consistent with their business and teach them how to get better results out of their deals.
The major thing with prospecting is that you have to do it consistently. The hardest part is probably just staying on top of all this work.
One of the best ways around this is just to shave out a certain time everyday that you can devote to prospecting. You have to treat it like an important appointment that you're not going to miss. Devote 1-3 hours for this everyday, and you will start seeing results.
It's undoubtedly true that technology has changed our business. However, there is no replacement to getting on the phone and calling someone. Technology has made it easier for agents to find people and get in front of them, but you cannot forget about person-to-person communication. There is no technology available to enhance face-to-face communication, and you need to hone this skill. Often times you will have to call someone more than once, so you will need a lot of practice with prospecting for clients.
Hopefully this information has been helpful. I know it was short, but if you need to contact me with any questions or comments, then please feel free to do so. I am always here to help you here in the Sioux Falls area.
We would love to arrange a time for you to sit down and chat with us.
