calling realtors

Ive been reading your town your real estate profits and been doing all the action steps even before i read the next chapter and i was doing ch 3 where dean tells u to call realtors in ur area and ask them to give u a professional opinion of where ur local real estate market is. Ive talked to five real estate agents and they all have been very receptive over the phone and gave me some good pointers. Like dean says action=results= opportunity at ur front door. i called this one realty office and the receptionist said a realtor who works with investors would call me back and she did. We talked and she seemed interested to work with me even though i didnt tell her the types off mstrategies i use. She said what types of homes are u interested in and price range and i said sf anywhere between 50000-80000. What im trying to get tois does anyone think this would be a good agent to use to implement deans strategies like assigning contracts even though i didnt tell her that on the phone? Any advice, thanks

Calling realtors

I have dealt with agents for 4 years in 49 states. There are plenty of them out there, but not that many that are of use to us. It really helps to be up front with them on what you are doing. That seems to change the mood greatly.

We are only interested in agents that are either currently investing in r.e. or are already working with investors and understand that we do a minimum of 30 offers a month and all of them will be 25-30% less that list.

Once they have heard that they will fall by the wayside. The agent we are looking for only represents about 4% of the total agents out there with a license. We do not train new agents or an old one for that matter. We really don't have time and our offers should be streamlined.

What I mean by that is your agent should be able to do your offers in minutes. We want a tech savvy agent.

Regards,

Randy Bailiff

Be yourself

When you talk to realtors/buyers/sellers/etc., TELL them upfront who you are, what you do, etc. just like the 30 day to Quick RE Cash book says to do. The 1st time you talk with realtors, you don't necessarily need to go into TMI with them, but just enough for them to understand. If you're honest with them in the beginning, it will go a long way. The same goes for everyone else you talk to.

Read 30 Days to Real Estate Cash

If you don't have it, you need Dean's latest book, "30 Days to Real Estate Cash". The script to use is in there, as well as giving the realtors tasks to do. Work with the one(s) who get back to you with the right information.

I am going through it now.
