Be determined and consistent as a realtor
As a realtor, if you want to grow very fast, you must be aware that closing deals it’s important but not so easy to screw up. Every hurdle encountered just serves as a stepping stone for you to leap higher.
As they said, consistency is the rule of the game, If you want to win deals it’s important you know that in this game consistency is key in achieving that.
This doesn’t happen by accident, it can only happen when you screw up a solid marketing plan and strategy to fuel up your sales funnel.
You must adopt a winning character no matter how you stand in front of the face of challenges.
I know, some clients can be challenging to work with.
This is true.
I’ve already had all these problems and they were sometimes very stressful.
Some of which will come from your clients and will only help you do well as a realtor.
Build and maintain a relationship
As a realtor, if you want to become successful you must learn to do one thing.
That’s networking.
Networking is the biggest asset in real estate.
In fact, it’s by far the most selling secret weapon.
By now, you’ve heard about “downlines”, and having a lot of them with the right mindset might just be the miracle that will launch you into making crazy sales.
I know, because I understand it worked so well.
But, in the case of networking, it’s all about who you know and who you don’t.
The ability to build and maintain relationships isn’t optional, it isn’t a skill but it’s a selling secret model in real estate.
One thing I noticed is that realtors are too busy to schedule themselves up.
Two reasons:
- It’s either they don’t have time to do follow up sequence
- Finding hard to generate qualified leads
All that realtors do is use pictures in front of these audiences to get more eyeballs but it won’t make them buy.
That doesn’t take away your ultimate goal, which is, to make more connections and build a lasting relationships.
Don’t look at the input of the time, drop your pride, but look at the bigger picture of the reward.
Here’s one thing more.
As a realtor, the best way to build and maintain relationships is by listening to the needs of your clients.
You have to pay deep attention and be soft on them.
And try to avoid this:
Realtors who focus on financial gains cannot discern the rules of the game. They won’t get loved.
But a realtor should be less of a salesman and more of a property guide.
Be Tech-savvy
Having an online presence is a must-have for realtors as it makes marketing easier.
The reason for this, it’s technology.
Technology is the reason that consumers change the way they buy.
Because of this, you need to find your way around a computer and the internet.
Get on social media and create a profile on your favorite social media platform.

Set goals
You have to set a realistic goal.
Can you prove and guarantee it?
Here’s why.
The real reason is that we did a survey that shows that only a few realtors have a set goal written down.
If you can create time to physically write down your goals, you will more likely to achieve them.
You should add goal setting to your business to-dos.
Setting goals is important for realtors who want to succeed, as they give you a way to track and measure your progress.
How can you screw up if your business is improving if you don’t set goals to measure the height of your success?
It’s important to have set goals and they should be specific, measurable, actionable, realistic, and time-bound.
By doing this, your success is guaranteed.
The ability to negotiate and pay attention to details
When you’re trying to build, maintain and negotiate deals, you’ve to stay sharp and well-composed.
You have to be a good listener as it helps you understand the needs of your clients and how you can help solve them.
Asking questions during conversations is needed as it helps you gain clarity about what their needs are.
Negotiation is the most important part of your job as you need to churn out these three techniques:
- Payment structure
- The goal of the project
- What kind of investment does your client wants
These are important to screw up at the early stage.
Have a mentor
Get yourself a mentor who is experienced enough to educate you about the process of selling land or house property.
Doing this will give you a deeper understanding of the title of each document, what it meant, and how it works.
