  <p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Let me be blunt. Most home buyers can be cheap. Not frugal, not careful with money. Cheap. They don’t just want a good deal—they want a </span><em>great<span> </span></em><span>deal. They're a salesperson’s worst nightmare. </span>If you’re a buyer’s agent, you’re probably already dealing with difficult homebuyers 20 times a day.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As a real estate agent in Singapore, I got to see just how frustrating it is to work with difficult people. Most homebuyers who showed up to my office came armed with well-intentioned but laughably inaccurate articles that promised them “Million Dollar Listing” apartments on “2 Broke Girls” budgets. I must have spent 30% of my time debunking real estate myths and patiently explaining how the real estate market really works.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen" style="text-align: justify;">That’s why I decided to put together this guide on how to educate your “unrealistic” buyers or renters quickly and easily. If you do it right, you just might get an evangelist for life.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"></p></div>

  <h2 class="wp-block-heading nitro-offscreen" id="Talking-Points">1. Come Up With Memorable Talking Points &amp; Repeat Them Often</h2>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Let’s face it, dealing with difficult homebuyers can be a grind. One way to manage their unrealistic expectations quickly and easily is to come up with a few short, memorable, and ideally emotion-packed talking points and repeat them as often as you can.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Think about when you first heard a talking point like, “Those who list, last,”—how easily you remembered it and how often you’ve repeated it. The reason a phrase like this has such an immediate and memorable impact on new agents has to do with a concept that neuroscientists call<span> </span><a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29080018/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">neural plasticity</a>. It’s basically a fancy way of saying there are ideal conditions for learning and retaining a new idea. If you want to educate buyers quickly, then you need to come up with a few talking points that help create ideal conditions for neural plasticity.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Here’s how: According to Stanford neuroscientist Andrew Huberman, urgency and focus are what you need to help someone learn something new. So come up with talking points that create both. That means short, memorable, and emotion-laden talking points, delivered directly and candidly.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">After an afternoon with me, my homebuyers probably heard me say this at least 10 times: “Your apartment can be affordable, nice, or in a great neighborhood. Pick two.” Was it cheesy? Yes. Did it help educate my clients quickly? Also yes.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Here’s a significantly less cheesy but equally effective talking point from Alexander Boriskin, an agent in Manhattan and The Hamptons who regularly sells eight-figure listings: “It’s certainly a buyers’ market, but fire sales are very far and few between.”</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Here’s another from Manhattan agent Kemdi Anosike:<em><span> </span></em>“Compromise is a must. You don’t always get everything on your wish list, and that is OK.”</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Here’s one from Jodie:<em><span> </span></em>“There is no perfect house. On a scale of one to 10, shoot for an eight.”<br />
Just remember.<span> </span><em>Urgency + focus = learning.<span> </span></em>So take an hour or two and see if you can distill your market knowledge into a few short, memorable talking points that will teach difficult homebuyers a lesson quickly.</p>

<p class="nitro-offscreen">Some homebuyers you take on just don’t want to listen. They think because their hairdresser’s friend’s nephew got a two-bedroom in SoHo for under $1 million a month, they can too.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">But no matter how off the mark their expectations are, you run the risk of turning them off with your perceived pessimism. And the reality is some buyers will shop around until they find an agent who tells them what they want to hear: “Of course there are 2-bedrooms in SoHo for under $1 million! Let’s meet up on Saturday and we can see some. By the way, how’s your credit?”</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Instead of risking these starry-eyed buyers ditching you for someone who promises them rainbows and unicorns, why not generate realistic prospects with lead magnets that also educate them? Putting together a well-written and researched new homebuyer’s guide as a free download on your site will take you all of a weekend. You can even tailor it to specific neighborhoods and price points. Or better yet, target your specific niche to attract your ideal clients.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Then set up a landing page on your website and drive some traffic to it with pay-per-click ads on social media. The prospects you get from lead magnets like this will already have your advice in their heads<span> </span><em>before</em><span> </span>they call you.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">If you already have a website, check out our<span> </span>guide to landing pages here. If not, you might want to check out Real Geeks. Real Geeks’ property search tool not only gives your leads a smooth search experience but feeds their info directly into your customer relationship manager (CRM) so you can track their interests easily.</p>

<p class="nitro-offscreen">One of the biggest mistakes new agents make is waiting around the office all day for the “perfect lead” and dumping everyone else into crummy drip campaigns. Is your phone ringing off the hook? Are you so busy that you can’t be bothered to meet someone who might net you six figures or more in commissions over the next few years? Of course not.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Whenever you get a new lead, the first words out of your mouth should be something along the lines of, “What time on Sunday can we go see the listing?” This will not only help you build relationships with top-of-the-funnel leads, but will give you the perfect opportunity to educate them as well.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Come up with three to five listings that roughly fit the homebuyer’s criteria and budget, and one that’s exactly what they want but far out of their budget. Take them on a tour of the places in their budget, which they’re going to hate, then take them to the expensive place but don’t tell them the price until they get excited.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Remember:<span> </span><em>Urgency and focus</em><span> </span>are what you need to teach someone something new. It is much, much easier to create these conditions standing in a home and looking at the kitchen than it is in a marketing email.</p>

<p class="nitro-offscreen">Of course, if you’re not spending enough time studying the market and the economy and how they work together, all the snappy talking points in the world won’t help you. Even unrealistic buyers can sniff out agents who are not well-informed. The minute they talk to someone who actually knows what they’re talking about, your buyers will ghost you. And for good reason. Why would anyone want to work with a professional who doesn’t know their trade?</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Instead of trying to fake it till you make it, educate yourself.<span> </span><em>Constantly</em>. There’s simply no excuse for not knowing your market and the local economy inside out. And if you want to work in a luxury market, chances are many of your leads will work in finance and know way more about the market and economy than you do. Why should they even bother talking to you? You’re not bringing anything to the table.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">To stay up to date with your market, subscribe to local news sources that cover real estate—ideally sources that only cover real estate. Inman can be a great source of information for the market in general, and if you’re in a big city like New York or Chicago, The Real Deal and Crain’s should be in your inbox every morning. RISMedia is another great real estate news source.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Also, make sure you’re getting the latest data from your real estate association. Our very own Kate Evans breaks down the<span> </span>National Association of Realtors’ housing data every month<span> </span>and offers free infographics and talking points for both homebuyers and sellers.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Learning about the economy and how it affects your market is just as important.

<p class="nitro-offscreen">It’s just good practice to have your buyers create a wish list. Then, sit down with them and discuss the importance of each item on the list. Make your buyers sort these items into what is a<span> </span><em>want</em><span> </span>and what is a<span> </span><em>need</em>. Having this conversation will help when you start looking at homes that are out of their price range. And you can refer back to this list over and over, redirecting them from their idealistic, starry-eyed dreams<span> </span>to the reality of their budget.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Obviously, what happens is that gourmet kitchen they said was a need will eventually become a want. The list will change over time to be more reflective of their current reality. And in these moments, you can remind them that if the house they settle on doesn’t have everything they want, they can save money, build equity, and trade up in a few years. And you’ll be more than happy to help them with that when the time comes.</p>

<p class="nitro-offscreen">Honestly, I don’t know why we expect clients to understand what we spend every single day studying and practicing. It’s not their job to know the market or to understand how real estate works. That’s<span> </span><em>our job</em>. So, first, practice patience with difficult homebuyers. Use all your active listening skills here. And never condescend. That’s the fastest way to lose a buyer.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Jodie typically likes to use visual aids when she talks to homebuyers. She uses a lot of infographics, especially in her<span> </span>buyer’s presentation. For example, she uses the one above to demonstrate the relationship between location, features, and price. Use visuals to get the point across and teach your buyers about the process of buying a home from beginning to post-closing.</p>

<p class="nitro-offscreen">Many buyers will come to you after looking at their dream homes online. Which means they haven’t talked to a mortgage broker yet. They’re coming to you with stars in their eyes and a dream in their hearts, but the loan originator can quickly pull them back to reality with a pre-approval letter. Encourage your buyers to get their finances straight first before you start showing them houses.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">You can explain to them<span> </span><strong>the last thing they want is to fall in love with a house they can’t afford</strong>. So, once they get that budget set, they’ll be forced to stay within it. You can also direct their attention to not only their approval amount, but how much they will pay per month on their mortgage. Just because they’re approved for a $500,000 mortgage does not mean they want to (or can) make that payment each month. Most often, buyers don’t take into account the other items (property tax, insurance, HOA fees, etc.) that will come along with that monthly payment.</p>

<p class="nitro-offscreen">I’m sure we’ve all heard the advice from our elders, “Never pay the asking price for a house!” I don’t know where (or when) this little tidbit came from, but I still hear it from clients, usually right before they try to get me to write up a lowball offer on their dream home, thinking we’ll just negotiate the price. But honestly, even if it was true once upon a time, this is terrible advice for today. Your buyers need to know that they’re working from old data.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Now I’m not suggesting that you insult them by telling them they don’t know what they’re talking about. They may have gotten that information from their dad or a trusted friend. You have to be tactful when you explain that today’s market is far different from the market in which [insert family member who bought their house in 1984] purchased their home.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Your buyers have probably been inundated with “advice” from friends, family, coworkers, and colleagues on the “best practices” for buying real estate. But the truth is, practically everything outside of “find a good agent” is outdated, untrue, or misleading.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Take their comments in stride and let them know, in a loving way, that their friends and family don’t do this for a living and their advice is not accurate in today’s market. Encourage them to lean on one family member or friend they trust to seek counsel outside of yours, but tune out the rest of the advice noise.</p>

<p class="nitro-offscreen">One thing your buyers probably haven’t been told is how emotional buying a house is. With all the advice coming in, you might think someone would have mentioned the emotional roller coaster of buying a home,<span> </span>especially for first-time homebuyers.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">The best way to address this is to first give your homebuyers a heads-up. Let them know that buying a home is emotional. Explain to them that their judgment will be clouded by their feelings.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Next, after you’ve told your buyers they will be tempted to buy based solely on their emotions, lay out your strategy to combat making irrational decisions. Go back to their wish list with their wants and needs lined out.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Sure, everyone wants to buy that gorgeous house with a pool in the backyard, but was a pool even on your list? It’s definitely not a priority. So, do you really feel comfortable tacking an extra $500 per month on your mortgage payment?</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">As the real estate agent, part of your job is to continue to ground your buyers and make sure they’re not sinking themselves. Bring them back to reality whenever you need to. They’re<span> </span><em>counting</em><span> </span>on you to do that for them. It’s your responsibility to remind them of the end goal, to help them cross the finish line. Don’t let them get into a situation where they will end up having to sell in two years because their payments are more than they can handle.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">You may feel like the wet blanket, but it’s important for homebuyers to have someone looking out for their best interests. Dreaming is fun. But getting tied to a house you can’t afford is a nightmare.</p>

<p class="nitro-offscreen">Shattering your clients’ homebuying dreams is a tough part of our jobs as agents. One way to make this challenge easier is to start with a solid foundation. When you build a trusting, compassionate relationship with your clients, you’ll have an easier time telling them those truths they may not want to hear.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Don’t start off dashing their hopes right away. Start by being that comforting, empathetic ear. Listen to their dreams and feel their excitement. Don’t make promises you can’t keep, but let them dream first. Then, gently bring them to a reality that will let them have a piece of that dream. Show them a path that will help them get as much of what they want as possible. Be a knowledgeable, creative problem-solver, sharing their enthusiasm for finding them the right home.</p>

<p class="nitro-offscreen">If you’re a newer agent, then before you start effectively educating anyone, you’re going to have to learn the meaning behind that old joke about how to get to Carnegie Hall. If you don’t already know, it’s actually very easy:<span> </span><em>Practice</em>.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">The first few times you try to deal with difficult homebuyers, you’re either going to sound a bit unsure, you’re not going to have the right talking points, or you’re not going to be very well educated on your market or the economy.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Don’t sweat it, though. Even the best agents in the world started out right where you are right now. The big secret is that many of these agents aren’t even very talented or smart. In real estate, hard work and practice will beat out talent any day of the week.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">You can start practicing dealing with difficult homebuyers right now by running scenarios with your fellow agents and practicing what to say in different situations. Study your market every day and know your stuff so you’re prepared for any questions thrown at you.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">If you want to build the kind of strong relationships that lead to years of referral business, then never stop learning, come up with some talking points that create urgency and focus, and practice, practice, practice.</p>

  <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why I’m the Right Person to Help You Find Real Estate Buyer Leads</h2>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">As a veteran agent and real estate coach, I talk to agents every day who want to boost their buyer lead generation game. Also, I’ve been in your shoes, working hard to drum up business. Take it from me: Buyers are fun to work with, and drumming up buyer leads is easier than you might think. The good news is that you already have the tools you need to be successful—and you can start today!</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading nitro-offscreen" id="Host-an-Open-House">1. Host Open Houses</h2>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Of course, you should always consider hosting an open house when you have a listing to market—it’s a tried-and-true way of promoting and selling a property. But it’s also the perfect opportunity to capture real estate buyer leads. Who comes to an open house (other than nosy neighbors)? Buyers!</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Think of these events as opportunities to not only put your listing in the best light, but also your brand. Introduce yourself to every potential buyer, collect contact information, and always! always! always! follow! up! You’d be surprised at how often “just looking” becomes “ready to buy.”</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Don’t have any listings at the moment? Offer to host open houses for fellow agents at your brokerage. You’ll be their hero for freeing up their weekend<span> </span><em>and</em><span> </span>you’ll be in the perfect place to capture valuable buyer leads.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading nitro-offscreen" id="Be-the-Community-Expert">2. Be the Community Expert</h2>
<div class="wp-block-image nitro-offscreen">
<figure class="aligncenter size-full is-resized"></figure>
</div>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Want to connect with more local homebuyers? Become<span> </span><em>the</em><span> </span>community expert. Use your website and social media to showcase all of the goings-on in your community. I have a friend who sends out a monthly newsletter to all of her contacts with a list of local events, from high school football games to oyster roasts. It’s so comprehensive and thorough that the whole community relies on it and calls it “Debbie’s list.”</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">But, I’ll be honest: This is a time-consuming strategy that doesn’t bring in leads immediately. So if you want results faster, consider a community website from Parkbench. With a Parkbench website, you can become the source of information for all the exciting events in your area more quickly, and almost all of it is populated for you automatically.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Parkbench works best for community-focused agents who prefer to nurture relationships rather than purchase leads. Check the Parkbench website for availability in your market (they only allow one real estate agent per area). It’s a great way to build relationships with the most influential people in your community.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading nitro-offscreen" id="Convert-Your-Renter-Clients-Into-Buyer-Leads">3. Convert Your Renter Clients Into Buyer Leads</h2>
<div class="wp-block-image nitro-offscreen">
<figure class="aligncenter size-large is-resized"></figure>
</div>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Consider this:<span> </span><a href="https://www.jchs.harvard.edu/sites/default/files/reports/files/Harvard_JCHS_Americas_Rental_Housing_2022.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">44.1 million people rented</a><span> </span>last year and a majority of people lease or rent before they own, especially if they are new to town. Tapping into that massive base of potential buyers is an excellent strategy for sourcing real estate buyer leads.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Not only can you market to this demographic efficiently (via strategies like sending branded flyers to apartment communities), you can work with renters to establish a long-term relationship. If you’re an agent who demonstrates professionalism and trustworthiness during the renting process, you’ll be their first call when they’re ready to buy a home.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Want to learn more? Check out this video detailing our comprehensive strategy for targeting renters as future buyers.</p>

<div class="wp-block-image nitro-offscreen">
<figure class="aligncenter size-full is-resized"></figure>
</div>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">I’m often asked if buying leads is worth it. One of my favorite things to say to my real estate coaching clients is, “There’s no such thing as a free lead.” You might pay with your time, your effort, your checkbook, or you can pay with a combination of all three. One way or another, you’re going to pay for the leads you get.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">If you are considering purchasing leads, take a look at Top Producer Social Connect. It’s like hiring your own team of experts to craft your social media ads to generate leads, which are automatically sent to your customer relationship manager (CRM).</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading nitro-offscreen" id="Look-for-Any-Excuse-to-Throw-a-Party">5. Look for Any Excuse to Throw a Party</h2>
<div class="wp-block-image nitro-offscreen">
<figure class="aligncenter size-full is-resized"></figure>
</div>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">According to the<span> </span><a href="https://www.nar.realtor/research-and-statistics/quick-real-estate-statistics" target="_blank" rel="noopener">National Association of Realtors</a>, more than a third of all buyers used either an agent they knew or an agent who was referred by someone in their personal sphere last year.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">While there are plenty of ways to stay top of mind with your sphere of influence (SOI), one of the single best ways to connect with your contacts—and meet<span> </span><em>friends</em><span> </span>of your contacts—is a party.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">There are plenty of excuses to have parties for your sphere of influence—anything from a Kentucky Derby viewing party to a celebration at a brewery after some community service work. Think of all of the creative ways you can get your collection of contacts together. One of my favorites: Throw a housewarming party for your recent buyer clients!</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading nitro-offscreen" id="Interact-With-Buyers-on-Social-Media">6. Interact With Buyers on Social Media</h2>
<div class="wp-block-image nitro-offscreen">
<figure class="aligncenter size-full is-resized"></figure>
</div>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">So often, real estate agents look at social media like any other marketing outlet. Write your copy, post your pictures, buy ads, then sit back and wait for the buyer leads. So what does social media engagement actually mean?</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Real estate buyers on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and even TikTok are looking for more than just static posts—they’re looking for interaction. That means you need to engage with the content that<span> </span><em>they</em><span> </span>post. Comment, like, share in your own story, reply to comments, and be part of the larger conversation.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">This also means demonstrating your knowledge. If you’re the local real estate expert, share interesting facts, give a brief lesson on a timely topic, or answer questions online. I have a top-producing Realtor friend who is incredibly active on a Facebook group focused on local history. He’s a go-to source for local legends, and new buyer clients are constantly finding him right there on social media.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Find what you enjoy, and then join and participate in discussions. Is there a cooking group that posts interesting recipes? Share some of your own! Love dogs? Find the local pup hashtags and hangouts! It might be time consuming, but it’s a surefire way to boost your return on social media investment.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Too busy to spend your time on social media engagement? Consider<span> </span>Agent Crate, one of our favorite social media template providers<span> </span>for the real estate world. Our own industry marketing expert, Emile L’Eplattenier, called it out as the platform that offers the best value for money in terms of the competition.</p>

<div class="wp-block-image nitro-offscreen">
<figure class="aligncenter size-full is-resized"></figure>
</div>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Do you… Zillow? Well, your buyers do.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Just to put it in numbers, Zillow gets more than<span> </span><a href="https://ipropertymanagement.com/research/zillow-statistics" target="_blank" rel="noopener">93 million unique visitors</a><span> </span>per month, and the majority of them are buyers who are browsing real estate listings. So maybe it’s time to let Zillow work for you. The Zillow Premier Agent program not only puts you in the spotlight, it also offers other great perks, like featured placement in the Zillow Agent Finder and access to Zillow’s Live Connections program.</p>

<center class="nitro-offscreen"><a class="thirstylink button" href="https://www.zillow.com/premier-agent/contact-us/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Visit Zillow</a></center>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">P.S.: Zillow has a program, Zillow Flex, in select markets. Rather than paying for their services upfront, you pay a percentage of your commission.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading nitro-offscreen" id="Try-Demographic-Farming">8. Try Demographic Farming</h2>
<div class="wp-block-image nitro-offscreen">
<figure class="aligncenter size-full is-resized"></figure>
</div>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Instead of focusing on a certain neighborhood, as geographic farming does, focus on a specific demographic, such as seniors, first-time homebuyers, or members of the military. Of course, if you want to attract a certain type of real estate buyer, you’ve got to do more than just know their demographics. You need to know who these clients are as people.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Chevy Chase was onto something in “Caddyshack” when he said, “Be the ball.” Think like your target demographic. What questions or hesitations will these buyers have? What are their interests? What keeps them up at night? What problems do they have that you can solve?</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">The better you know your potential buyers, the better agent you will be for them.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Ready for some razor-sharp targeting in your farming efforts? SmartZip is an all-in-one listing and lead farming tool with a proprietary algorithm that aggregates data from more than 30 top data providers nationwide. This data includes property data, behavioral data, consumer data, and demographic data. Combined and fed into the SmartZip algorithm, it paints a picture of the candidates most likely to move in the coming months.</p>

<div class="wp-block-image nitro-offscreen">
<figure class="aligncenter size-full is-resized"></figure>
</div>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">You became a real estate agent for many reasons, but I bet one of them is that you like helping people and your community. Giving back to an organization you care about helps you contribute<span> </span><em>and</em><span> </span>network.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Working with local schools, for example, is a great way to get yourself in front of prime-time homebuyers: families with children. Schools need sponsors and fundraising, and students need volunteers and mentors. This is a great way to both serve your community and get in front of people who are in that peak housebuying demographic. But don’t limit yourself. Consider communities of faith, sports leagues, nonprofits, and of course, animal rescue organizations.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">There’s a hugely successful brokerage in my town that sponsors rec sports, which means every season there’s a bunch of adorable five-year-olds running around, playing soccer in jerseys with their brokerage’s branding. Some agents even volunteer to coach. Parents take note, and that’s their first call when they’re ready to buy a house with a backyard big enough for a soccer goal.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading nitro-offscreen" id="Use-Old-fashioned-Mail-to-Reach-Entire-Communities">10. Use Old-fashioned Mail to Reach Entire Communities</h2>
<div class="wp-block-image nitro-offscreen">
<figure class="aligncenter size-full is-resized"></figure>
</div>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Direct mail marketing is still an incredibly effective and<span> </span><em>efficient</em><span> </span>strategy for generating real estate buyer leads. But you need to be thoughtful about your design in order to stand out. Send out a calendar for the year, populated with holidays and local events, and I bet that postcard ends up on the refrigerator, keeping you top of mind for months to come.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">If you’re looking for a direct mail option that is easy to use, has tons of design options, and won’t break the bank, check out ProspectsPLUS!. Choose from one of their 250 real estate-specific templates, input your personal information, and make sure the copy reflects your community. Now you’ve got yourself a real estate lead generating machine.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading nitro-offscreen" id="Make-a-Short-Video">11. Make a Short Video</h2>
<div class="wp-block-image nitro-offscreen">
<figure class="aligncenter size-full is-resized"></figure>
</div>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">It’s no secret that video dominates internet content. Considering that the average attention span on the internet is measured in seconds, not that many people will read your 1,000-word blog post about why you’re the best buyer’s agent in your city. But many, many more of those people will watch you say the same thing on Instagram or TikTok.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">And while it may feel overwhelming to break into video content marketing, know this: Google prominently features YouTube in search results, which gives real estate agents with good video content a chance to outrank behemoths like Zillow.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">I have a good friend (and Realtor) who hosts helpful question-and-answer sessions every week. He shoots his videos when he’s in the car or on a walk so they’re casual and not high-tech. He is authoritative, provides thoughtful answers and insights, and has built a social media following in the tens of thousands. When buyers are ready to start looking for a home, this guy, who has been advising them through Instagram for months, is their first call.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Just remember that no matter what form your videos take, make sure they are authentically you and that they capture (and keep) your audience’s attention.</p>

</div>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Whether you’re looking to double-dip a transaction or want to shore up some goodwill with your sellers, finding potential buyers for properties you’ve put on the market makes your job as a listing agent much easier. And as the market shifts in 2023, this is only going to become more important.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Your first strategy should be to ensure the home’s visual marketing assets are top-notch. Get<span> </span><a href="https://www.yasserkhan.sg/blog/real-estate-photography-tips/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">professional photos</a><span> </span>taken, make sure you’ve got<span> </span>great video content, and consider investing in<span> </span><a href="https://www.yasserkhan.sg/blog/virtual-staging-software/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">virtual tour technology</a><span> </span>too.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Next, verify that your listing appears just how you want it to on popular third-party sites like Zillow and realtor.com. Though these sites pull their data straight from your MLS, you always want to double-check how they look. Finally, get proactive by placing ads on social media targeted to likely buyers in your community.</p>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">When your listing sells, you might even be perfectly positioned to help any buyers out there who didn’t get their offer accepted on your listing.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading nitro-offscreen">Over to You</h2>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Anyone can generate a few buyer leads, but if you want to be successful, you’re going to need a steady stream of leads every week. Keep in mind that your buyer clients will eventually turn into sellers too, so investing in your buyer lead funnel<span> </span><em>now</em><span> </span>creates opportunities for multiple transactions down the road.</p>

<p>Looking to buy real estate leads? Well, you’re in luck because there are plenty of companies that want to sell them to you. However, it can be challenging to find the lead generation company with the right strategy for your business. Real estate isn’t a one-size-fits-all industry, and your paid lead generation plan shouldn’t be either. That’s why I’m not just recommending one top pick, but rather eight of our favorite places to buy real estate leads. </p>
<p>For this buyer’s guide, I used my experience as an agent, coach, and tech expert to review dozens of paid real estate lead generation companies. I analyzed them based on lead gen strategy, price, usability, scalability, and customer support.

However, it can be challenging to find the lead generation company with the right strategy for your business. Real estate isn’t a one-size-fits-all industry, and your paid lead generation plan shouldn’t be either. That’s why I’m not just recommending one top pick, but rather eight of our favorite places to buy real estate leads.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For this buyer’s guide, I used my experience as an agent, coach, and tech expert to review dozens of paid real estate lead generation companies.

<p>Of course, buying leads shouldn’t be your only strategy for business development. According to the National Association of Realtors 2023 Member Profile, 65% of agents reported that none of their business came from online leads. The reason why most Realtors don’t use online leads varies, but one to certainly keep in mind is <strong>the amount of follow up required to convert</strong>. In the same report, 68% of agents noted they do not use a<span> </span><a href="https://www.yasserkhan.sg/blog/real-estate-crm/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">customer relationship manager (CRM)</a>. <strong>A CRM is going to be key to following up with your leads and keeping your activity consistent to generate business. Real estate has a long sales cycle, and keeping in touch with clients and leads will definitely increase your conversion rate.</strong></p>

<p>Market Leader uses strategically placed ads on Google and social media to drive traffic to one of two places: either a home valuation page for listing leads or a personally branded, IDX search-enabled landing page for buyer leads. In order to use the tools on these pages, visitors are required to register for an account and input their contact information, which then gets passed directly to you.</p>
<p>If this strategy probably sounds familiar, it’s because a lot of competitors (such as Top Producer and Real Geeks) use the same approach. However, Market Leader has a crucial differentiator: guaranteed lead volume. If you make the payment, you’ll have at least the number of leads they projected for you—it’s just that simple. For agents with a fixed marketing budget looking for a straightforward way to buy guaranteed leads, this may be a great option.</p>
<p>For agents looking for even more leads, Market Leader also offers their “Network Boost,” a way for agents to receive around 40 leads each month for as little as $350 per month. They create and post custom ads on social media for you and deploy automated follow-up tools to start the nurture conversation.</p>

These agents know exactly how many leads they need on a monthly basis to ensure paid lead generation is profitable for them. Market Leader makes that possible with its guarantee. Also, the Social Boost add-on may get you even more leads without the need for personalized follow-up.</p>

<p>Using vast amounts of consumer, demographic, and market data, Offrs identifies the top 30% of your target market that is most likely to buy or sell a home in the next 18 months.

<p>Armed with this information, you can market to these likely clients, driving your conversion rates and the quality of your interactions through the roof. On top of the quality of their leads, they are the only predictive analytics company that guarantees a certain number of leads: 30 leads per month in your targeted ZIP code and 90 leads within five ZIP codes if you upgrade to the premium package.</p>
<p>These are all recent changes to the Offrs platform; they spent months listening to customer feedback, simplifying some offerings, and enhancing others. We’re excited about this new chapter for Offrs and are hopeful that it’s not too good to be true. Trust that we’ll be following along and updating this guide in the near future!</p>

<p>REDX is an outbound real estate lead marketing system that collects and disseminates data, such as property details, FSBO and expired listings data, and contact information for buyers and sellers in your community. They categorize and prioritize this data in VORTEX, their proprietary customer relationship manager (CRM), for agents to use in their outbound prospecting efforts. I also like their Power Dialer, which keeps your phone calling so that you can be up to four times as efficient with your cold calls.</p>
<p>The great thing about REDX is that it works well for budget-conscious agents ready to push up their sleeves and prospect via phone. In fact, this is the most cost-effective tool on this list. However, you need to be prepared to take control of your own lead volume.</p>

<p>Somewhat similar to Market Leader, Zurple generates real estate leads with community-specific buyer and seller landing pages designed to capture lead information. These landing pages offer something of value (a home valuation or an IDX search) in exchange for contact information. Zurple takes it a step further by advertising on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Google to drive traffic to these pages.</p>
<p>Zurple differs from others using this strategy because its analytics and automations are so strong. Zurple provides advanced behavior reports about visitors’ activity on your lead magnet pages. This might include lists of the properties they’re looking at and alerts for behavior that might indicate they are ready to make a purchase. Zurple also offers automated communication tools, such as email drip campaigns, to make sure your clients are hearing from you at the most effective moments.</p>
<p>If you’re a tech-savvy agent looking for analytics, Zurple could be perfect for you. Their integration with Facebook and Google Ads can be a boon if you have a strong online brand. Plus, the automatic follow-up tools in Zurple also make this an easy choice for agents who aren’t using their CRM to its highest potential.</p>

<p>Parkbench is a real estate lead generation company that provides agents with a highly personalized community website. Using this custom website, Parkbench’s team of marketing experts coach agents to create valuable content with an emphasis on video.</p>
<p>Your site will feature the best and brightest of your local community. The neighbors and local business owners you profile on your Parkbench site will likely share your content, and your clients will visit to stay up to date on what’s happening in your market. These relationships in the community turn into excellent referral sources. So you’re not actually “buying” leads, but using Parkbench to build a referral network that can be a lead-generating machine.</p>
<p>With the emphasis on video and building your brand, Parkbench can work really well for agents who are already social butterflies. Take your natural storytelling ability and pair it with Parkbench to level up your community engagement and generate local referrals, which tend to be easier to convert!</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading nitro-offscreen">My Take on Buying Real Estate Leads From Parkbench</h3>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Parkbench is a great choice for agents who are natural storytellers and have a well-developed (or quickly developing) brand reputation in their local community. If you’re closing less than 30% of your transactions as a result of referral and repeat business, Parkbench may be the perfect tool to increase your referral generation. Keep in mind that you’ll need a solid follow-up strategy in place to make this work.</p>

<p>Zillow places advertisements for participating “premier agents” next to listings on its platform. When a consumer selects you, they fill out a quick form with their contact information and Zillow sends you that information. Most of these leads are going to be buyers who are near the top of the funnel.</p>
<p>While Zillow likely gets the most homebuyer traffic on the internet, these placements aren’t always exclusive. Most of the time, premier agents appear along with other premier agents who are paying for the same ZIP codes. Potential leads generally select the agent with the best reviews, so making sure yours are glowing and numerous is crucial.</p>
<p>Zillow Premier can work well for agents who are available to follow up with leads quickly and continue to nurture their funnel. Because Zillow leads tend to be near the top of the marketing funnel, they will require some work to convert.</p>
<p>Note that Zillow Premier is a different program than the pay-at-closing Zillow Flex option.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading nitro-offscreen">My Take on Buying Real Estate Leads From Zillow Premier Agent</h3>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">I firmly believe that everyone should at least have a free account on Zillow—it’s a great place to collect reviews and start getting active leads. If you want to take it a step further and buy real estate leads, Zillow Premier Agent is a good choice, but it’s competitive. You’ll need to be quick and effective in following up with new contacts. Time is particularly of the essence because these leads aren’t exclusive.</p>

<p>A family-owned company, zBuyer maintains a strong commitment to customer satisfaction that some of the larger software companies just can’t match. Plus, it has an excellent track record of supplying valuable, verified leads.</p>
<p>zBuyer uses cutting-edge analytics to uncover early indications of interest in selling or buying. Targeted potential sellers are offered a chance to discover their home’s worth and potentially a cash offer on zBuyer’s website, HousingNow.com. The site acts as a listing service similar to Zillow, where buyers can browse listings. However, potential leads have to input their information to actually view the listings.</p>
<p>These leads must also confirm their interest at several points along the way, verifying their intent, which results in higher conversion rates. zBuyer then provides the agent with the lead’s contact information in real time to the zBuyer app, email, and to your CRM of choice. While the leads aren’t exclusive, zBuyer says they will only share a lead with six agents total, so if an area has that many agents already active, it will be sold out.</p>
<p>For agents looking for leads that have been vetted and verified, zBuyer could very well be your answer. Their offering is similar to others on this list, but they do put their leads through a vetting process before passing them off to agents. Their customer service is also top-notch, which is something to consider when spending hundreds of dollars on leads.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading nitro-offscreen">My Take on Buying Real Estate Leads From zBuyer</h3>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Frankly, it’s hard to come up with reasons not to give zBuyer a try if you’re looking to buy leads. It’s one of the more budget-conscious options that also sources its own verified buyer and seller leads. And if it’s not working out, you can cancel at any time. I’ll bet that if you employ some solid follow-up and lead nurturing, you’ll find zBuyer to be a powerful partner in the lead generation game.</p>

<p>Catalyze AI is a new predictive selling software developed in 2021 to find inherited properties that are likely to sell. The company claims a 40% lead prediction rate. Put another way, they state that, “Roughly four out of 10 property leads sell within 12 months.”</p>
<p>The company says they use more than 400 million data points to make their predictions. Their model is a bit different from others on this list: They guarantee 30 inheritance listing leads in two package tiers. The pricing is transparent, starting at $360 per month. The higher-tiered plan is $450 per month, which provides listings valued over $1 million. There are no setup fees and their plans are flexible—your leads are delivered monthly and there is no contract.</p>
<p>If you have experience with probate leads and a fixed marketing budget, Catalyze AI may be the answer for you. It’s also a good choice for agents looking for a straightforward way to purchase leads with no contract or setup fees. However, keep in mind that inherited property sales can be different than a normal transaction. You may need more patience and advanced nurturing skills to convert these leads.</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading nitro-offscreen">My Take on Buying Real Estate Leads From Catalyze AI</h3>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Overall, Catalyze AI is a fairly new software offering. They don’t have much in terms of reviews or blog posts. Another item to keep in mind is that inherited property leads can be niche. It can take patience and some strong follow-up with these types of leads. However, inherited property is a strong segment of the market that is continuing to grow as properties get passed down. Since there is no contract required, this might be a great opportunity to see if this niche is right for you.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading nitro-offscreen" id="FAQ">Buying Real Estate Leads: FAQs</h2>
<p class="nitro-offscreen">Rightfully, a lot of agents have questions they need answered before forking over their commission to buying real estate leads. Here are some of the most frequently asked questions we hear about paid lead generation services. If there’s something we haven’t covered, feel free to drop your question in the comment section below.</p>

</div>
<div id="is-buying-real-estate-leads-worth-it-content" class="close-accordion-content mb-40 nitro-offscreen show">
<p>Yes! I always say, “There’s no such thing as a free lead.” You might pay with your time, your effort, your checkbook, or you can pay with a combination of all three. One way or another, you’re going to pay for the leads you get.</p>
<p>If this expenditure results in a net positive for your business—meaning you make more money than you spend—it is absolutely worth it. If you spend $500 a month on direct mail marketing and receive a $2,500 commission from it each month, you would absolutely say that the postcards were worth it. The same is true for paid lead generation tactics.</p>

<p>When looking at purchasing real estate leads, each agent is going to be different. Only you know your working style, your personality, and your business. Keep in mind that driving consistent results is the key. You might have to try out a couple different angles before you find a paid lead generation strategy that works best for you. One of our veteran contributors and coaches, Sean Moudry, has outlined a great<span> </span><a href="https://www.yasserkhan.sg/blog/listing-marketing-plan/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lead generation selection formula you can use to tailor your approach—including a downloadable worksheet</a>.</p>

<p>Buying real estate leads can quickly get expensive. While it can be a great piece of the lead generation pie for some agents, these leads also tend to be harder to convert—remember that low conversion rate of roughly 1%? You’ll need a solid follow-up strategy. Many agents try buying leads and give up when they don’t see immediate results. These leads are going to require you to establish trust and authority with them and maintain consistent communication to see them convert.</p>

<p>Real estate leads that you’ve purchased are traditionally going to be higher up in the marketing funnel. You can also think of them as being in different buckets: Hot leads are those you’re sure are going to convert and are lower in the funnel. Warm leads are the ones you’ve been talking to for a few months that have expressed interest in the next year. Leads that you’ve purchased are usually cold.</p>
<p>More than likely, you’ll need to nurture these leads into converting. There’s a sweet spot in real estate where people are thinking about buying or selling, but haven’t yet talked to an agent. That’s where you come in!

<p>The majority of real estate businesses have some form of paid leads as a part of their marketing strategy.

<p>Yes, there are brokerages that offer this. However, we encourage you to try putting together a plan to do it yourself before going all-in on someone else doing it for you. When you rely on your brokerage for leads, you end up sharing your opportunities with every other agent who is doing the same thing. Those leads are going to be much fewer than opportunities you can provide for yourself.</p>
<p>Also, make no mistake—you’re not getting those leads for free. Your brokerage is paying for them by charging you more in fees or a higher commission split.</p>
<p>When you pay for leads yourself, you get to do it on your own terms, and the long-term opportunity for success is much higher. Plus, if you leave your brokerage and still have clients that came from that company, it can get messy.</p>

  <p><span data-tt="{}">Yasser Khan earned less than $1,000 in his first year as a full time property agent. With no money for the $2 train fare to his Broker's office, he was forced to walk 25 kilometers on foot. Worse, he got evicted at midnight with his wife and baby son by the roadside. Desperate, he bought a $16 Sales book and took massive action. That single investment in himself gave him an OBSCENE ROI of $160,000 in just 11 months. Today, Yasser is on a mission to make the real estate great career again and helps ambitious agents quadruple their commission income within 90 days. </span></p>
<p><span data-tt="{}">Yasser Khan is a real estate coach at <a href="http://yasserkhan.sg">YasserKhan.SG</a>, trainer at <a href="https://propertyagentuniversity.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">PropertyAgentUniversity.com</a> and the author of <a href="https://propertyagentsecrets.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Property Agent Secrets Book</a> who teaches Realtors how to make more Money, have more Time and enjoy more Freedom without all the B.S. plaguing the industry today.  </span></p>
<p>Yasser Khan’s approach to coaching is highly personalised, holistic, no B.S., and for “<em>PROS ONLY… amateurs not allowed</em>.” He believes that true success means winning in every single area of your life (like Financial, Family, Social, Physical, Mental, Spiritual and Fun).</p>
<p>When Yasser isn’t coaching, he loves playing GOTY PC Games with top-of-the-line Razer products and being a kid again with his 3 naughty children (actually, boss babies...), traveling to and across scenic Pakistan, enjoying hot &amp; spicy food, taking pictures of the Milky Way with his favourite Canon DSLR and reading up all about Dinosaurs (especially T. Rex)</p></div>

<h3 class="mt-0">1. Learn How to Prospect on LinkedIn</h3>
<p class="author-meta"><span class="font-weight-bold">Beverly Ruffner, Real Estate Coach</span>,<span> </span><a href="https://www.beverlyruffner.com/" target="_blank" alt="BeverlyRuffner.com" rel="noopener">BeverlyRuffner.com</a></p>
<p>“Instead of trying to prospect for leads on Facebook or Instagram where you have to compete with cute kitten videos, why not use the platform that was specifically designed for professional networking? I am, of course, talking about LinkedIn. The one social media platform agents still seem to ignore.</p>
<p>“If you want to get better leads this year, then learning how to prospect on LinkedIn will help. It puts you in front of professionals when and where they actually expect to talk business instead of where they go to relax.”</p>

<p>“Market Leader owns one of the largest and best home valuation sites online: housevalues.com. Homeowners use the site to check the value of properties they’re interested in selling. Market Leader then sends those exclusive leads out to agents who claim their ZIP code. This is one of the best ways to generate seller leads at the beginning of their buyer journey before other agents have a chance to pitch them.</p>

<p>“OK, let’s stop beating around the bush here. Competition for the low-hanging fruit leads in pretty much any farm area is usually fierce.</p>
<p>“If you want to get and close more leads, sometimes it can help to think outside the box. Do you want genuinely motivated leads? How about leads that have a court order to sell their home? How about leads who really, really, really want to move?</p>
<p>“If you’ve got reserves of patience and empathy, then working divorce leads might be the perfect lead generation strategy to close a few more deals this year. There’s even a designation—RCS-D<span> </span>(Real Estate Collaboration Specialist – Divorce)—that you can get to show potential divorce clients that you know your stuff and mean business.”</p>

<h3 class="mt-0">4. Learn to Scale Your Lead Generation With a Smart CRM</h3>

<p>“Most people think getting started is the hardest thing to do in real estate. But most people have never tried to scale a successful real estate business. Trust me, it’s much, much harder. I should know. Ten years ago, I scaled a brokerage to 100 people, but it didn’t last. The problem was that there were only so many hours in a day, and our leads and clients needed us ASAP, 24/7. Mere mortals couldn’t keep up … then the recession hit.</p>
<p>“Luckily, now it’s 2022, so we have apps like Zurple that use patent-pending software to analyze a lead’s behavior to figure out when they’re ready to transact, BEFORE they’re ready to transact. Even better, they generate those leads for you so you can actually focus on closing. It’s the software I wish I had 10 years ago.”</p>

<p>“You should be generating leads while you sleep—and you do that by building a compelling and memorable personal brand. A personal brand is not just what people say about you when you’re not in the room; it’s how to get people to talk about you when you’re nowhere near that room!</p>
<p>“Your personal brand will generate compound interest on your investments and, over time, the daily deposits you make into your brand turn into a massive lead generation machine that gets prospective leads coming to you, even when you’re sleeping.”</p>

<p>Circle prospecting is one of the best ways to stake out your claim in your farm area. If you want to become the real estate agent in a neighborhood, you’re going to have to get in front of the neighbors as often as possible.</p>
<p>The only problem is that some neighborhoods are already blanketed with door hangers, flyers, and postcards from your competition. With a little creativity, you can beat the competition to the chase before they get their flyers printed.</p>
<p>Working with real estate coach Tom Ferry, Tampa Bay Realtor Christina Griffin came up with an ingenious strategy to reach homeowners in her farm area.</p>
<p>She bought lists of homeowners’ cell numbers, then, after cross-checking with the DNC, used a clever app called Slydial Broadcast to leave them all voicemails advertising her next open house automatically.</p>
<p>The response was immediate and massive. She got 200 leads on her first day.</p>

<p>“Calls to whom? The contacts in your phone. The people you actually know. Statistics show that an estimated one-third of the public does something related to real estate annually―renovations, updates, repairs, refinancing, buying, or selling―and savvy Realtors are there for all of those steps in the work of being the trusted Realtor adviser over time.</p>
<p>“Costs nothing. How to make it happen? Set a doable goal of one call per day. It will get done—and once you do one, you’re likely to make two.”</p>

<p>“Good old-fashioned sales letters. There’s a difference between direct mail and drip mail. Most of the time in real estate, we call drip mail ‘direct mail.’ For instance, sending postcards twice a month to a geographic farm isn’t direct mail—despite calling it that—because it usually isn’t angling for a ‘direct response.’</p>
<p>“To the contrary, it’s more about creating top-of-mind awareness and branding. Direct mail has more to do with organizing a vetted and scrubbed list of ideal recipients and then delivering a calibrated letter—or a few letters in a row—that are designed to get the recipients to take action within a relatively short time frame. Sending sales letters to absentee owners is an excellent way to do it.</p>

<p>“Predictive analytics has been waiting in the wings of real estate marketing for a couple of years now, but it stormed the stage and grabbed the spotlight with the emergence of SmartZip. SmartZip uses artificial intelligence (AI) to parse hundreds of data points from across the internet and from your local MLS to determine which property owners in your targeted geographic area are most likely to sell this year.</p>
<p>“That means rather than trying to market to an entire community, you can focus only on property owners who are most likely to sell and ensure you’re the first real estate agent they talk to. Lock down your territory with<span> </span>SmartZip<span> </span>here.”</p>

<p>“Lead generation is about personal connection. At our office, we have created our ‘Top 50′ program, where we designate the top people in our network who have the greatest potential to bring in one piece of business. From there, we look to meet with our contacts once a quarter face-to-face to learn more about their lives and develop a deeper relationship with them. We also host exclusive parties and events, which we invite our ‘Top 50’ to, including movie nights, parties, and so on. Leveraging your network is a great way to generate leads and in order to get those, you need to build strong personal relationships with them.”</p>

<p>Like every other social media platform, Instagram has been pushing users to create more videos. Why? They want to keep creators creating on their platform, and they want to keep their followers engaged. Video is the best way to do that.</p>
<p>Of course, creating engagement with Instagram Stories isn’t easy and doesn’t come naturally for many older agents. If you want to learn the ropes, check out Eric Simon’s (aka The Broke Agent) excellent article below. Eric built his Instagram account to 350,000 followers using these same lead generation strategies.</p>

<p>“When a borrower starts to miss payments on a mortgage, a lender or loan servicer will often order a ‘broker price opinion’ (BPO) on a property in case they end up having to foreclose, do a loan modification, or short sale. They may do this before it is reported as a late payment to a credit agency, and well before they file a notice of default. This is an early indicator of a homeowner who may need to sell sooner rather than later.”</p>

<h3 class="mt-0">17. Connect With Pet-loving Leads by Sponsoring a Local Adoption Event</h3>
<p class="author-meta"><span class="font-weight-bold">Alisa Cunningham</span>,<span> </span><a href="http://alisacunningham.com/" target="_blank" alt="Realtor, Douglas Elliman" rel="noopener">Realtor, Douglas Elliman</a></p>
<p>“A great opportunity is to approach local animal shelters or rescue groups and offer to sponsor an adoption event. You give them money to pay for renting a space, tables, and canopy shelters, maybe hire food trucks to be there, do advertising for them, and then show up and work the event. People love their pets—most people consider them members of the family.</p>
<p>“Being of service and finding a home for those abandoned pets is critical work and usually appreciated, plus you get to talk to people. Pet lovers bond with other pet lovers. ‘Creating home for you and your pets’ or ‘Finding homes for you and your pets’ or something like that. But you have to be a pet lover yourself.”</p>

<h3 class="mt-0">18. Use Deep Insight From Zillow My Agent to Convert More Leads</h3>
<p class="author-meta"><span class="font-weight-bold">Chris Linsell, Real Estate Coach</span></p>
<p>“Did you know that even after a buyer contacts an agent, they go back to Zillow an average of 27 times and look at 77 more listing pages in 30 days? That means that even if you answered your phone right away and wowed them, there’s still a huge chance they’ll wind up working with someone else. Even worse, you’ll never even know it. They’ll just stop returning your calls.</p>
<p>“So if you want to 3x your lead conversion, then Zillow Premier Agent’s new feature, My Agent, is for you. It puts only your contact information on every single listing your lead looks at after they contact you.</p>
<p>“Even better, My Agent provides agents with deep insight on which properties they’re viewing, saving, and searching for on Zillow.”</p>

<p>“If you’re going to events where everyone else is just like you, your odds of meeting quality leads are slim to none.</p>
<p>“Instead of going to the same old real estate mixers or networking events, think outside the box and join some non-real estate-related local events. Your next client can be found at a community yoga workshop, a sip-and-paint night, a book reading, or even at a concert.</p>
<p>“Just be careful of trying to ‘sell’ to people you meet. Instead, go to an event you’ll truly enjoy, engage in the flow of conversation, and when you get the ‘what do you do?’ question, give them an answer that truly makes your real estate services shine. Even if you don’t get any new leads, you’ll spend time doing things you love. How can you go wrong?”</p>

Save Time By Hiring a Real Estate Lead Generation Company</h3>
<p class="author-meta"><span class="font-weight-bold">Chris Linsell, Real Estate Coach</span></p>
<p>One of the most frustrating things about experimenting with a new way to generate leads is that you never really know if it’s going to work until you try it. Worse, it may be weeks or even months before you discover it doesn’t work for your farm area, your unique skill set, or even your personality.</p>
<p>Smart agents don’t just hope and pray their new strategies will pay off. Instead, they hire real estate lead generation companies. Real estate lead generation companies combine advertising and lead nurturing technology and highly trained professionals to generate buyer and seller leads for real estate agents, teams, and brokerages. Some generate leads, prequalify them with ISAs, then send them straight to your CRM, while others require a bit more work. To find a lead generation company that’s right for you, check out my in-depth buyer’s guide here:</p>

<p>“One suggestion I offered my newer agents was to go to the mall or shopping center during the holiday shopping season and hand out business cards attached to a candy cane to everyone walking by. No need to wait in line to see Santa to get a candy cane. Spread a little Christmas cheer with the candy canes and, hopefully, pick up a new client or two for the new year. Everyone loves a candy cane at Christmas.</p>
<p>“One other suggestion I had was to print water bottle labels, go to the shopping areas where the crowds line up waiting for the big Black Friday sales events, and pass out water bottles with your brand—business card—on them to the crowds waiting in line.”</p>

<p>Since most of your fellow agents will head for the hills during the holidays, staying in the office can mean easy real estate lead generation. Here are a few tips from Los Angeles’ Acme Realty founder Courtney Poulos on generating leads during the holidays.</p>
<p>“My advice to newer agents who are looking to work through the holidays would be to use the fact that you are present and available during the holiday season as the dominant messaging in your marketing. If you have listings that you are going to be showing during the holidays, have holiday-themed events, such as a holiday-themed broker’s open with spiced cider, or at your Sunday open house, have a jazz musician playing holiday music. You can also take new pictures of the property with some holiday decorations to use in your social media posts.”</p>

<p>“While the current breed of real estate lead generation websites are great, you never actually own one. Instead, you pay a monthly fee and your site goes poof and vanishes if you stop paying. That’s why building your own IDX website with WordPress is an investment that is well worth trying this year.</p>
<p>“Building a website with WordPress that actually generates leads isn’t easy, but as they say, the best time to plant a tree was five years ago but the second-best time is now. You can get started building your site using our ultimate guide below.”</p>

<p>“I don’t just reach out to listings that are newly expired like everyone does, but I dig deeper and pay special attention to the ones that expired a year or more ago that never relisted. I figure that at some point these potential clients wanted to sell, so why not reach out to them to see what their plans are, how they may have changed, and how I could help them meet their objective. If their plan is to sell sometime in the future, I offer to assist them with a strategy so they’re ready to hit the ground running when the timing is perfect.”</p>

<p>“Most people do not think about pitching their listings to news outlets, but it has surprisingly proven to be one of the best strategies for getting a lot of leads extremely quickly. One of my listings was featured in a New York Times article last week, and I have been receiving at least five calls a day since publication—I had three showings just today. It’s amazing to see the response you get when backed by a reputable publication. Not only can I sell a property extremely quickly through the publicity, but I gain a lot of new clients for other listings as well. The response from media coverage has blown me away every time.”</p>

<p>“Too many people believe that the time has passed to rank organically on Google successfully—specifically targeting ranking opinion articles for individual property addresses and then providing ‘the rest of the story’ so the potential buyers can read your opinions of the property’s strengths and weaknesses. This works extremely well with very high-end or historic properties. The buyer gets to hear your tone and gets a feel for your personality as well as some honest insight about the property they’re considering buying.”</p>

Similarly, you can look into becoming a member of a destination marketing organization (DMO) or convention and visitors’ bureau (CVB). Sometimes these are the same as the Chamber and other times they are a separate entity.”</p>

I work with business managers and accountants to share business and guide our clients together to gain wealth through real estate.</p>
<p>“Most people think you buy a house and live in it, sell it, and buy another one, but what if they kept that first house and bought another one, and gained passive income from the first? I have clients for life because they trust I’m guiding them on the right path of when and what to sell based on their needs and income desires in the future.”</p>

<p>With inventory still tight and prices softening slowly, FSBOs are now facing one of the trickiest markets in a generation and most don’t have the skillset to navigate it successfully. Of course, that doesn’t mean they no longer want (or maybe even need) to sell their home. It just means they are much more likely to need help doing it.</p>

<p>“You don’t need to create one, but get involved. For example, create a survey to find out ‘What’s stopping you from buying a home?’ and then engage people individually in a very casual manner. The key is coming up with creative content that makes people want to participate, remaining consistent, and measuring the results. I see too many agents who let these things go if they don’t see immediate results or start getting busy.”</p>

Then, post a steady stream of videos and blogs on all social media outlets—all about those things. If they are active, start running and biking, and posting updates on your activities. If they have school-age children, attend school sporting events, concerts, and plays, and post about them.</p>
<p>“Restaurants, wine enthusiasts, religious events, sporting events, hiking, swimming, and charitable causes—identify your ideal client, then post yourself being involved in the things they do.”</p>

<p>Even if they already love you, everyone loves getting presents, even small ones. That’s why Coldwell Banker agent Heidi Sutter’s system of rewarding referral sources helps keep a steady stream of referrals in her inbox:</p>
<p>“For me, one of the best lead generating tools has been to reward my referrals with a handwritten note and gift card. Doing so has been key for my business and proven to be one of the best ways to connect with clients, friends, and family who are kind enough to refer my services. Here’s my formula:</p>

<ul>
 	<li>$5 gift card and thank-you note at introduction to the referral</li>
 	<li>$10 gift card for gas, along with a handwritten note thanking them for the referral again and providing a quick update on the progress once the buyer or seller signs a contract or lists</li>
 	<li>Hand-delivered $50 gift card to a local restaurant once the client closes</li>
</ul>
<p>“This helps make and maintain a personal connection.”</p>

<h3>1. Understand How Pareto Distributions Work</h3>
<p>Vilfredo Pareto was a 19th-century Italian civil engineer, economist, and sociologist who came up with a mathematical formula to explain power distributions in nature, society, and business. He discovered that in many cases, 20% of most systems produce 80% of the results. You might know this as the 80/20 rule.<br />
You might notice this already in your business. For example, many agents find that roughly 20% of their customers might produce 80% of their gross commission income (GCI). When it comes to lead generation, you will likely find that 20% of your efforts produce 80% of your results. This is why choosing the real estate lead generation strategies that work for you is so important.</p>

<h3>2. Make a Plan That Gets You a Mix of Top of Funnel &amp; Bottom of Funnel Leads</h3>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-10945 lazyloaded" src="https://i0.wp.com/theclose.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/spiral-staircaes.png?resize=675%2C450" data-src="https://i0.wp.com/theclose.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/spiral-staircaes.png?resize=675%2C450" alt="spiral staircaes" width="675" height="450" data-srcset="https://theclose.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/spiral-staircaes.png 900w, https://theclose.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/spiral-staircaes-300x200.png 300w, https://theclose.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/spiral-staircaes-768x512.png 768w" data-sizes="(max-width: 675px) 100vw, 675px" sizes="(max-width: 675px) 100vw, 675px" srcset="https://theclose.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/spiral-staircaes.png 900w, https://theclose.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/spiral-staircaes-300x200.png 300w, https://theclose.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/spiral-staircaes-768x512.png 768w" data-recalc-dims="1" /></p>
<p>While getting customers early on in their home search is important, very few agents have the time to nurture leads forever without generating any income. Quick wins that bring in revenue are crucial for any business. So make sure you have a healthy mix of strategies that get you customers who need to move yesterday and customers who might not move for a year or more.</p>
<p>For example, home valuation landing pages are more likely to attract sellers who are close to pulling the trigger, while cold calling landlords of distressed properties might get you leads that might sell six months from now.</p>
<p>So when choosing a new real estate lead generation strategy, make sure to ask yourself if it will generate more top of funnel or bottom of funnel leads. If you’re busy, then top of funnel leads are great. If you’re struggling to pay your mortgage, then you should focus on quick wins instead.</p>

<h3>3. Create a Customised Plan That Fits Your Unique Personality</h3>
<p>One mistake that many agents make is trying to push themselves to generate leads using techniques that don’t fit their personality. For example, if you’re an introvert, cold calling FSBOs will probably only leave you frustrated and broke.</p>
<p>Real estate coach Sean Moudry has developed a unique system that tests agents for their personality type using a variation of the Myers-Briggs test to help them find the perfect real estate lead generation strategy for them.</p>

</div>
<div id="What-is-Real-Estate-Lead-Generation-content" class="close-accordion-content mb-40 show">
<p>Real estate lead generation is the art and science of attracting people who want to buy and sell real estate to the Realtors who can help them sell it.</p>
<p>Real estate lead generation can happen online using strategies like pay-per-click (PPC) advertising, over the phone through cold calling, or even in person through networking or door knocking. Real estate lead generation is either done by Realtors and brokerages themselves, or by hiring a real estate lead generation company.</p>

</div>
<div id="What-Are-Real-Estate-Lead-Generation-content" class="close-accordion-content mb-40 show">
<p>Real estate lead generation companies leverage technology, advertising skills, and professional staff in order to generate leads for Realtors and brokerages. There are two categories of real estate lead generation companies: 1. Full-service lead generation companies that run all advertising, prequalifying, and lead nurturing campaigns for you, and 2. Companies that provide websites, customer relationship managers (CRMs), and other tools to help you generate leads on your own. Regardless of which kind of lead generation company you choose to hire, the goal is the same: to fill your pipeline with buyer and seller leads.</p>

</div>
<div id="Are-Paid-Leads-content" class="close-accordion-content mb-40 show">
<p>Absolutely not. In fact, almost all of the top-producing agents we work with generate their best leads through referrals based on the strength of their personal brands in their sphere of influence. Other top-producing agents we work with, like Beverly Ruffner, generate leads through cold calling or other free strategies. However, most newer agents generate leads through a combination of paid and free techniques until they build up a database large enough to consistently generate referrals.</p>

  <p><span>Looking for more real estate lead generation ideas besides cold calling and door knocking? Generating quality leads is how every real estate agent sustains their business, and this requires never ending effort. The fact that good real estate lead generation ideas can significantly impact your business is nothing new.

And this can often be easily fixed by trying out new ideas and ways of getting home buyer and seller contacts, on top of what you are already getting right now.</span></p>

<h2>What’s the big deal with real estate lead generation in 2023?</h2>
<p>Lead generation is the lifeblood of your real estate business. Agents who have a solid lead generation system in place always have a steady flow of incoming clients — and agents without a solid lead generation strategy are always struggling for their next deal.</p>
<p>A lead is just another word for a buyer or seller you’re going to help with one major transaction: a home sale. You want those buyers and sellers to know who you are, what you do, and what you can offer them so that they decide to hire you as their agent. When that buyer or seller leaves behind their contact details, you can now consider them leads.</p>
<p>How do agents find—or generate—leads? First: Marketing and lead generation go hand-in-hand. To generate the best leads, you’ll need to lay the groundwork by understanding what value and benefits you have to offer your clients, and promoting those in the most efficient and effective way. You’ll need to discover what niche you serve best, create an offer to service them accordingly, and then demonstrate to the world what you can do.</p>
<p>There are just about as many lead generation strategies as there are real estate agencies. In the past, agents would knock on doors in certain neighbourhoods and introduce themselves to the homeowners. You could buy lists of expired listings and for-sale-by-owner (FSBO) listings and start cold-calling those sellers. Mail and print advertisements are other forms of lead generation that agents have used in the past.</p>
<p>Today, agents have even more options when it comes to generating leads. The internet has opened up a whole new landscape of possibilities, and agents are generating leads using search engine optimization (SEO) and search engine marketing (SEM), social media, blogs, videos, and other online channels to attract, engage, and nurture leads.</p>
<p>Whether you’re a brand-new or seasoned agent, this guide to real estate lead generation will explain how it works and why it’s critical, share dozens of different tactics for generating leads, drill down into lead qualification and nurturing, and describe how to build a powerful lead generation system using multiple strategies.</p>

<h2>What is the right mindset for lead generation in real estate?</h2>
<p>In the marketing world, a prospect is someone who is interested in doing business with you. For a real estate agent, a lead could be either someone who’s interested in buying a house (but doesn’t yet have an agent lined up) or someone who’s interested in selling a home (but doesn’t yet have an agent to list the property). Or, it could also be someone who wants to rent a home and needs your help.</p>

<h4>There are really four stages in the real estate process:</h4>
<ol>
 	<li>You have to <strong>FIND</strong> prospects</li>
 	<li>You have to <strong>CONVERT</strong> these prospects into customers</li>
 	<li>You have to provide exceptional <strong>SERVICE</strong> so that they become happy lifelong customers (this is the “selling houses” part of your job, but even at this stage, you’re engaged in many other activities to make the actual sale happen)</li>
 	<li>You have to <strong>LEVERAGE</strong> this one customer’s satisfaction so they will give you their repeat business and REFER you to others.</li>
</ol>
<p>The primary reason most agents fail is NOT because they are not good at the technical aspects of their businesses (most are), but rather because they’re not good at finding prospects.</p>

<h4>Purchasing Is A PROCESS, Not an Event</h4>
<p>Purchasing a home is a process, NOT an event. People generally don’t just wake up one morning, without any reason, and go buy or sell a house.<br />
Instead, the decision to buy and sell an item as large as a home takes place over time.</p>
<p>In fact, purchasing anything - even a tiny chocolate bar - is a process and not an event.</p>
<p>While the length of the process, and the thought that goes into each stage of the process, may differ depending on the kind of product that you’re purchasing, the stages themselves are pretty universal:</p>

<ol>
 	<li>You discover that you have a need (e.g. your current living arrangements are inadequate)</li>
 	<li>You then decide to do something about that need (e.g. you decide to sell and/or buy a home)</li>
 	<li>You consider all of your options (e.g. sell your home yourself or use an agent; buy a brand-new home or buy a resale, etc.)</li>
 	<li>You choose an option (e.g. choose agent John Tan to help buy a resale condominium)</li>
</ol>
<h4>What implications does this have on you as a real estate agent?</h4>
<p>Well, as discussed above, like it or not, a significant part of your job in real estate is to find customers.</p>
<p>And knowing that at any given point in time there are prospects at different stages in the purchase process described above, if you want to have a steady stream of prospects calling you to do business, you will need to:</p>

<ol>
 	<li>Make sure you have a way of attracting only those prospects who are ready to make a move right NOW (ready-to-act buyers and sellers)</li>
 	<li>Make sure you have a way of identifying those prospects who will be ready to make a move in the near future (3-6 months) and be able to engage them in a follow-up process before they form a relationship with another agent</li>
 	<li>Make sure all area prospects have top-of-mind-consciousness of the unique and special way you can help them with their home moving needs so when they start to think about moving, they will consider you as an option</li>
</ol>
<p>As a real estate agent, your most effective lead generation strategies will capture more leads at the awareness and evaluation stages of their journey, because that’s when they’ll be weighing their choices and will be the most open to considering hiring you as their agent.</p>
<p>Be mindful that the awareness, evaluation, conversion customer journey applies to customers who know they have a problem to solve—buyers who know they want to buy a house, and sellers who know they want to sell. The buyer and seller leads who haven’t taken that step or made that decision aren’t represented in the funnel, but don’t forget about them! There’s an enormous opportunity to engage leads before they know they have a problem, or after they’ve solved that problem (for next time), by providing high-quality information and advice to them; we’ll share more about how that works later.</p>

<h2>Do the leads come to you, or do you go to them? The truth behind Inbound vs. outbound</h2>
<p>So how do you get leads? Lead generation strategies can be broadly categorized in two big groups: inbound marketing strategies and outbound marketing strategies.</p>
<p>Inbound marketing involves attracting leads to you by creating resources and assets that you think those leads will covet. Think a downloadable checklist or ebook that you promote on social media, or using SEO or SEM to draw search engine traffic to your website. Remember, to count as a lead, the buyer or seller must be willing to provide accurate contact information to you so you can “capture” them.</p>
<p>You might also see inbound marketing called “permission-based marketing”—the idea is that you are asking your leads for permission to talk to them about their problem by enticing them to your website or social media page using the resources and assets you’ve created.</p>
<p>The inbound marketing customer journey looks something like this, and the prospect becomes a lead in the middle of the journey:</p>

<figure class="w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image">
<div><img src="https://i0.wp.com/assets-global.website-files.com/5e99608fae81cfc99b44bcc1/5f228820afd86c6d6f2015bb_RE-lead-generation-03_inbound-marketing-journey_Placester.gif?w=1170&#038;ssl=1" alt="" class="aligncenter" data-recalc-dims="1" /></div></figure>
<p>&#x200d;<br />
Outbound marketing traditionally involves advertising your services to strangers in the hopes that one of them might need you. One example is cold calling. Another is knocking on doors.</p>
<p>There are some ways in which inbound marketing strategies and outbound marketing strategies can overlap (for example, email and social media can be effectively used for both types of strategies).</p>
<p>The other term you could see associated with outbound marketing is “interruption-based marketing”—the lead does not have a choice whether or not to pay attention to your message because you are sending it to them, not waiting for them to come to you. However, outbound marketing is often perceived by prospects as obnoxious or disruptive to their lives.</p>
<p>Outbound marketing will be most effective if you have some basic knowledge about your target audience. For direct mail or door-knocking, you’ll need to know where they live. For cold-calling, you’ll need to know that they were recently trying to sell a house (FSBO or expired listings). Otherwise, the chances of getting someone as a client with this strategy is close to zero.</p>
<p>Social media will allow you to target your audience even more specifically. You can conduct outbound marketing campaigns on complete strangers (a billboard on a highway with lots of traffic would be one offline example of this type of outbound marketing campaign).</p>
<p>The outbound marketing customer journey looks similar to inbound marketing, but you’ll be using tactics like direct mail, door-knocking, and cold-calling in lieu of blogs, keywords, and social publishing. Those early tactics will turn strangers into website and social media visitors, just like with inbound marketing, and when you have accurate contact information, you can add the lead to your customer relationship manager (CRM).</p>
<p>On that note: <strong>The best CRM is the one that you USE.</strong> Using a CRM will be just as critical to your lead generation success as choosing the best tactics; if you can’t capture and follow up with the leads you’re generating, you might as well not even bother. Make sure you are coordinating all your leads into a single source and tracking their progress through your funnel and their individual customer journeys.</p>

<figure class="w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image"><img src="https://i0.wp.com/www.yasserkhan.sg/wp-content/uploads/crm-for-real-estate-agents.png?resize=1170%2C589&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="1170" height="589" class="size-full wp-image-3368 aligncenter" data-recalc-dims="1" /></figure>
<p>Which marketing strategy should you focus on as a real estate agent? Most of the best agents use multiple forms of lead generation—some inbound and some outbound tactics. It’s also smart to mix up your strategy in terms of digital and traditional or in-person lead generation efforts, whenever possible. We’ll provide several examples of each so you can customize a lead generation strategy that works best for you.</p>

<p>Traditional marketing tactics are tactics that real estate agents have been using for decades—well before the internet emerged. There are both inbound and outbound traditional marketing tactics; exploring these different ways to generate leads and market your services can help you pinpoint the mix that works best for you and your clients.</p>
<p>Some newer agents might want to start with digital marketing tactics before digging into traditional marketing tactics. It’s entirely up to you and where you feel comfortable, but remember: the more ways you learn to generate leads, the more robust and strong your business will become.</p>
<p>Check out: <a href="https://www.yasserkhan.sg/blog/200-ways-to-attract-capture-and-nurture-real-estate-leads/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">200 Ways to Attract Real Estate Leads</a></p>

<h3>Traditional outbound lead generation tactics</h3>
<h4>FSBOs</h4>
<p>With a for-sale-by-owner (FSBO), you know that the seller is interested in their selling because they have listed their house for sale without the assistance of an agent. The challenge is to convince this seller that they’ll have an easier time (and make more money) if they use an agent. And another challenge is that many others agents also target FSBO listings to try to convert them.</p>
<p>However, if a homeowner has had their home listed for months with little to no action, they will likely be more interested in hearing how you can help them. An FSBO lead is a warm lead in the sense that they are ready to sell a house soon or immediately—so targeting them at the right time can be a lucrative and smart lead generation strategy for agents.</p>
<p>To find FSBO leads, check your agency listings, look in your local publications for real estate listings (there might be a FSBO section), on Craigslist, social media (especially Facebook), and real estate portals (especially any sections that encourage sellers to list a price for which they’d be willing to move). There are also companies that specialize in providing FSBO leads to agents.</p>
<p>According to the latest statistics available from the National Association of Realtors, FSBO homes sell for (on average) $60,000 less than agent-assisted homes. You’ll want data like this at your fingertips when you start a conversation with an FSBO lead.</p>

<h4>Expired listings</h4>
<p>An expired listing is a house that was for sale recently, but for whatever reason, it’s been pulled off the market. Maybe the seller didn’t get an offer they liked; maybe the house wasn’t marketed as well as it could have been; maybe the buyer financing fell through and the seller was too daunted to keep going.</p>
<p>You can get lists of expired listings yourself from your agency. Figure out which areas you want to target and start looking for listings in those areas that are about to expire. Make some calls and ask if the sellers are interested in switching agents. It sounds simple, but to be really successful, agents will have to make sure they are keeping tabs on leads in their CRM and following up after the listing expiration date. Depending on how many leads you’re juggling—and how many deals you have in the works—this can quickly get overwhelming.</p>
<p>There are also companies that curate and send you lists of expired listings, which might be something to consider if you have luck with them but don’t have time for detailed lead documentation and follow-up.</p>

<h4>Circle prospecting</h4>
<p>When you get your first listing, circle prospecting is a low-cost but effective way to generate interest in the house for sale and more leads for your own business. Circle prospecting involves sending notices or fliers to the homes within a block or two of your listing, letting homeowners know that the house is for sale and inviting them to learn more on your website or at the open house.</p>
<p>You should always include a way for the recipient to ask you more questions, obligation-free, so include a sentence or two about a free comparative market analysis for homeowners who are interested in learning about how their own property measures up against your listing.</p>

<h4>Target absentee owners</h4>
<p>Ever driven past a home that’s been empty for as long as you can recall and wondered “who owns that place and will they ever do anything with it?” As a real estate agent, you have an opportunity to discover more and possibly inspire them to make a decision about an asset that’s been literally collecting dust.</p>
<p>The best (and least creepy) way to do this is to note the address of the house in question and send a letter there, requesting forwarding to the homeowner. You can also check public records to try to find out the homeowner’s name and address, which might be necessary if the owner lives out-of-town or out-of-state. Introduce yourself, note your experience in selling homes like this one, and offer to answer any questions.</p>

<h4>Think seasonally</h4>
<p>Holidays and seasons are huge for agents who like to leverage outbound marketing tactics; there are all kinds of things you can offer to give away that people will want at different times of the year. This can, and should, go well beyond sending a card with a reminder that you’re still in business. Some agents bake (or buy) cookies for Hari Raya Aidilfitri, others might create a custom Christmas ornament to offer, while others might customize chocolate foils for Valentine’s Day and hand them out.</p>
<p><img src="https://i0.wp.com/www.yasserkhan.sg/wp-content/uploads/hari-raya-lightup-geylang-singapore.jpg?resize=1170%2C780&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="1170" height="780" class="size-full wp-image-3366 aligncenter" data-recalc-dims="1" /></p>
<p>If you like holidays, then coming up with some custom swag or ways to celebrate might be a fun activity to pair with an inbound marketing tactic, such as inviting friends and neighbors to a holiday event that you host. Pumpkins at a fall festival, flags on Fourth of July, eggs at an Easter hunt—those are some of the most obvious options, but your creativity is the only limitation!</p>

<h4>Print ads</h4>
<p>This once-quite-popular lead generation tactic has fallen out of favor among real estate agents, but even though local newspapers aren’t as thick as they used to be, they’re usually supplemented in larger cities by specialty publications like business journals and alternative weeklies. If a local newspaper targets the same group of leads that have worked well for you, then why not place an ad in the real estate section and see what happens?</p>

<h4>Public records</h4>
<p>Be careful with this one, as you don’t want to get a reputation as an “ambulance-chaser” or an unethical agent. Public records document big life events such as marriage, divorce, and death, and oftentimes, people need to upgrade or downsize their housing situation as a result.</p>
<p>That said, please do not use public records to look up people in your area who have suffered a death in the family or are going through a divorce, so you can cold-call them and ask if they are interested in selling their house. Ideally, you should use public records to see whether someone you know is experiencing a life event that has somehow escaped your notice, so you know when to offer your services tactfully.</p>

<h4>Mark milestones for clients</h4>
<p>Do you remember the first home sale you helped usher across the closing table? Your buyers definitely remember signing all those documents and then palming the keys to their new, biggest asset. Agents who help commemorate those milestones by sending cards, gifts, or just reaching out to say “hey, happy homeowner-birthday to you!” prove that they care about the long-term happiness of their buyers, not just the short-term commission check.</p>

<figure class="w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image">
<div><img src="https://i0.wp.com/assets-global.website-files.com/5e99608fae81cfc99b44bcc1/5f2a8bcc2e3d2905a0bf9665_Asset-4.png?w=1170&#038;ssl=1" alt="" class="aligncenter" data-recalc-dims="1" /></div></figure>
<p>&#x200d;</p>

<h4>Meet in person</h4>
<p>Some agents meticulously run through their CRM monthly or quarterly, making a point to schedule in-person meetings with a certain number of leads or former clients. There’s a lot you can discern in person that you can’t over the phone and certainly not over text message or email, and catching up over coffee gives you a good reason to share how you’ve been doing and ask how your lead is getting along.</p>
<p>Maybe you’ll hear that they’re thinking about selling, or maybe you’ll learn how happily settled they are in their current home … but that they have a friend who’s not in the same situation.</p>

<h4>Old-fashioned phone calls</h4>
<p>Although in-person meetings definitely tell you more, calling your leads on the phone periodically to check in on them is a good way to make sure you know what’s going on in their lives. As a result, you can keep tabs on their interest in or timeline for buying or selling.</p>

<figure class="w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image"><img src="https://i0.wp.com/www.yasserkhan.sg/wp-content/uploads/beautiful-girl-13-2018_06_20-09_11_12-UTC.jpg?resize=919%2C613&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="919" height="613" class="size-full wp-image-1406 aligncenter" data-recalc-dims="1" /></figure>
<p>The calls should feel like you’re catching up with friends or family, not like a chore. If you find yourself “cutting to the chase” and asking questions about whether your lead knows anyone looking to buy or sell, without allowing the conversation to travel naturally there (or not), then take a break from this one and come back when you’re interested in having a longer conversation.</p>

<h4>Handwritten notes</h4>
<p>Sending your leads a handwritten note is a thoughtful and personal way to let them know you’re thinking about them. Unlike a phone call or in-person meeting, your lead can respond (or not) to your handwritten note at their convenience. Many agents swear by sending a certain number of handwritten notes every day or week to their leads and people in their spheres of influence.</p>
<p>This can be an especially effective tactic when you pair it with a phone call or invitation to meet in person: Set the stage for the more in-depth conversation with a quick handwritten note asking your lead to catch up. Then call them a week after you mail the note to check in or see if they’re free to grab coffee.</p>

<h3>Traditional inbound lead generation tactics</h3>
<h4>Referrals</h4>
<p>Referrals are one of the most powerful and reliable sources for new leads. According to the National Association of Realtors’ 2019 Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers (<a href="https://www.nar.realtor/sites/default/files/documents/2019-profile-of-home-buyers-and-sellers-highlights-11-07-2019.pdf">https://www.nar.realtor/sites/default/files/documents/2019-profile-of-home-buyers-and-sellers-highlights-11-07-2019.pdf</a>), 41% of buyers used an agent referred to them by a friend, neighbor, or relative, and 12% worked with an agent they’d worked with in the past. The survey noted that 66% of sellers worked with an agent referred to them or with whom they’d worked in the past to buy or sell a home.</p>

<figure class="w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image"><img src="https://i0.wp.com/www.yasserkhan.sg/wp-content/uploads/referral.jpg?resize=1024%2C546&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="1024" height="546" class="size-full wp-image-3371 aligncenter" data-recalc-dims="1" /></figure>
<p>You can generate referrals by keeping into close contact with your past clients using some of the ideas above. If you have a handful of clients who tend to send you business, reward them with gift cards, a meal out at their favorite restaurant (your treat), or another perk so they know you appreciate them.</p>
<p>If you’re just starting out in real estate, it can be tough to get referrals, but talking to your friends and family members to build your contacts—and providing great service—will give you an opportunity to test this strategy soon enough.</p>

<h4>Agent networking</h4>
<p>To get referrals, you’ll need a strong agent network. This should include not just the agents in your own brokerage, but ideally, agents all over the country who might know buyers moving into your area. This can be done through activity in your Realtor association, attending conferences, and building relationships with the people you meet.</p>
<p>You can also network on social media. There are tons of agent groups on Facebook, some specifically focused on referrals and networking, and others that are more about education and improving the industry. Lurking in a couple of different groups before you dive in can tell you more about whether it will be a good way for you to meet other agents.</p>

<h4>Open houses</h4>
<p>When you have a listing to promote, running an open house is a good way to show it off to lots of prospective buyers at once. And as a real estate agent, it’s an excellent way for you to find buyer leads who might not be working with an agent just yet, even if the house in question isn’t the best fit for them.</p>
<p>To make the most out of hosting an open house, you should make sure that you have a system for capturing and following up with possible buyer leads.</p>

<h5>1. Market the open house</h5>
<p>You aren’t going to have any luck finding buyer leads if you don’t let buyers know that you’re hosting an open house. Distribute marketing materials throughout the neighborhood and hang fliers to let everyone know about the open house. Promote it on social media. Add a banner, highlight, or flag to your own website listings so that browsers know there’s an open house happening. Don’t forget about the signage for the day of the event!</p>

<figure class="w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image"></figure>
<h5>2. Get the details</h5>
<p>Different agents have different levels of comfort with how to capture lead information at open houses. You might want to ask visitors to sign in using a sheet (with space for a phone number or email address), but be aware that you might not get the most accurate information if some buyers (or lookie-loos) don’t want to give you a way to contact them.</p>
<p>Another way to get contact information is to start conversations with people walking through the house and therefore figure out upfront whether you might be able to help them with their home search. Even if this listing isn’t the right one for them, you might have another lined up that is.</p>

<h5>3. Follow up</h5>
<p>The contact information you’ve collected isn’t going to do you any good at all if you don’t use it to check in on your leads and see how their search is going. Buyers who are touring open houses are typically at the awareness or engagement stages of their customer journey, so these are warm buyer leads that should be prioritized.</p>

<h4>Local partnerships</h4>
<p>Lots of businesses depend on a thriving local real estate industry, from the obvious like contractors to the less-obvious like restaurants. Inspectors, plumbers, doggie day care centers, and the like all benefit in part from what you do. Consider your own interests and your niche, then figure out if a local partnership might be a good way to generate leads for you.</p>
<p>One option is to join your local Chamber of Commerce to get to know the other business-owners in town. Perhaps there’s a family law attorney who can recommend your services (and vice versa) when needed, and after you’ve been using the local pizza establishment to feed your new homeowners for a few months, maybe you can ask the owner if you can hang a flier or put out some table signs.</p>

<h4>Work with local investors</h4>
<p>Investors are more active in some areas than others. If you’re in an area with a lot of investment potential, or where a lot of investors are working, you could help them by learning what their ‘buy box’ looks like and keeping tabs on homes that might be a good fit. Real estate agents are especially valuable to out-of-town investors who might miss homes that don’t fit perfectly inside their buy box but are nonetheless great deals with lots of potential for return on investment.</p>
<p>This can be useful when you’re working with sellers, too; not every seller has the capacity to fix up a house before they sell, and you should know local investors who are interested in buying a property as-is. When you get a reputation among investors for being a good agent to work with, you’ll get more investor clients.</p>

<h4>Become a local expert</h4>
<p>There’s a person in every area who’s the go-to resource for … everything. The best restaurant for a date night, the best third-grade teacher at the local elementary school, the best running trails, the best place to find organic pet food. What if you became that person for your neighborhood?</p>
<p>This tactic is best combined with other digital marketing tactics so that you can promote your local knowledge. Lots of agents have great success by blogging or posting videos on YouTube about their area, getting as granular and in-depth as they can. Most of the internet isn’t going to care, but the people who are interested in this kind of content are <em>really </em>interested.</p>

<h4>Work with local news sources</h4>
<p>Real estate is going to be a hot topic in the news for as long as people are buying and selling property. When a real estate market is swinging heavily in one direction or another—toward buyers or toward sellers—or when the market is about to shift, you can just about guarantee that a local journalist is going to be looking for on-the-ground commentary about what it all means.</p>
<p>Establishing connections and relationships with those reporters can earn you quotes in print and sound bytes or video clips in broadcast news outlets. Help them understand what’s happening in real estate in your area by taking time to educate them, and you’ll look like a go-to expert for local real estate issues.</p>

<h4>Write a column for the paper</h4>
<p>Real estate agents and brokers with a penchant for writing themselves might consider asking the local paper’s editor if they’d be interested in a regular column about the real estate market. If you focus on the numbers and what buyers and sellers really need to know right now, as opposed to selling your services in any way (hard or soft), then editors will be receptive to providing you a regular space to share your expertise. They need content and you need leads and exposure, so it’s a wonderful way to meet everyone’s needs while also helping the community.</p>

<h4>Sponsor an event</h4>
<p>What events—from festivals to theater to sports tournaments—bring your community together in a group? If there’s something you especially love to do, or an activity that’s particularly popular in your area, consider attaching your name to it by sponsoring an event under your business name.</p>
<p>Depending on the event, you might have an opportunity to give out swag, get a list of email addresses for attendees or ticket-holders, or get creative with your signage. Think about how you can promote yourself while keeping the focus on the event itself; the idea here is to start to win hearts and minds and establish yourself as someone who cares as much about the community as the most involved residents.</p>

<figure class="w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image"><img src="https://i0.wp.com/www.yasserkhan.sg/wp-content/uploads/community.jpg?resize=768%2C565&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="768" height="565" class="size-full wp-image-3364 aligncenter" data-recalc-dims="1" /></figure>
<h4>Become more involved in the community</h4>
<p>Sponsoring an event is one option if you don’t have time to throw one of your own, but for a long-term lead generation tactic, consider starting up an event or group of your own, or becoming very active in one that’s already prominent in your town. Female or minority business-owner networking events, charity runs or races, fundraisers for environmental or community causes—you could spearhead any one of those if it aligned with your own values and goals.</p>
<p>Of course, you don’t have to start your own group or event to become a pillar in the community. Join the school board, or start volunteering at the domestic violence shelter. Find a cause or a group where you live that speaks to you and start getting involved there … and if you can’t find one, that might be a cue to start one.</p>

<h4>Make sure everyone knows who you are</h4>
<p>This is the concept behind those “free real estate advice” signs at the coffee shop, or the exhortations to always wear your nametag everywhere you go. If everyone knows what you do for a living and who you are, then when someone has a question about real estate, they’ll know exactly whom they can ask!</p>
<p>There are ways to do this beyond wearing it on your shirt or making a sign at the coffee shop; for example, make sure you note your occupation on your social media profiles, and that you have contact information and details about what you do in your email signature. Note it in your voicemail message on your cell phone. As the saying goes, “don’t be a secret agent.”</p>

<h4>Host a workshop</h4>
<p>First-time homebuyers don’t know what they don’t know about financing or what they can afford to buy, and after living in a house for decades, some homeowners who would be ready to downsize feel overwhelmed by the prospect. Those demographics would be audiences interested in workshops on, respectively, how to save up to buy a house, or how to get started with downsizing.</p>
<p>As an agent, you have the answers to their questions and can provide them with the education and inspiration they need to take a major step in their life. Local libraries will sometimes provide space for you to host a class if you make it free (which you should do anyway), or you can talk to your brokerage about using some office space for a class.</p>
<p>Print out handouts with useful resources and details, and make sure you include your own name and phone number on them. And bake in time after the class to answer any questions that attendees might have.</p>

<h4>Become a deep resource</h4>
<p>Becoming a local expert is one thing—that’s a broad resource, not a deep one. The difference is learning absolutely everything there is to know about one particular topic: military relocations, buyers with tricky and specific financial needs, the local schools, vacation rentals, and so on. If you don’t have a niche yet, think about the clients you’ve served so far and determine whether they have any commonalities. Are they all in a similar age group, working in a similar industry, or moving for similar reasons?</p>
<p>Remember, you sell real estate every day, while your clients probably don’t participate in a transaction more frequently than every few years. Take what you know and dig in a little deeper, and you could become the best resource for buyers and sellers in your area who have a specific need only you can meet.</p>

<h4>Make moving easy</h4>
<p>You know who likes to move? Basically nobody. After you’ve helped your sellers negotiate an offer, or your buyers seal the deal, you can make yourself a rockstar in their eyes by helping with the move in some small (or major) way.</p>
<p>Some agents send a meal on moving night, while others will send over a cleaning service. A handyperson a week or two after move-in to tackle any squeaks or drips can be a lovely way to show clients you care. Some handle transferring utilities, and others might even send help with the move itself via a moving service or truck. Think about what makes sense for your budget and business, but if you can ease this pain point, the word-of-mouth from happy clients will absolutely generate leads for you.</p>

<h2>A new frontier: Digital lead generation tactics that are perfect for real estate agents</h2>
<h3>Outbound digital lead generation tactics</h3>
<h4>Facebook Ads</h4>
<p>Facebook has become one of the most powerful ways to reach consumers of all kinds, including in real estate. It’s the most-visited social media network, with <a href="https://s21.q4cdn.com/399680738/files/doc_financials/2019/q4/FB-12.31.2019-Exhibit-99.1-r61_final.pdf">2.50 billion monthly active users and 1.66 billion daily active users</a> as of December 31, 2019; YouTube, the next-most-visited, <a href="https://datareportal.com/social-media-users">has about 200 billion monthly active users</a>.</p>

<figure class="w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image">

<p>With so many people visiting Facebook every day, there are undoubtedly buyer and seller leads in your market browsing the platform right now. And you know they’ll come back tomorrow, too.</p>
<p>The granular targeting options available in Facebook are what make this such a powerful tool for real estate agents. Make sure you know how you’re going to target by:</p>

<ul role="list">
 	<li>Interests</li>
 	<li>Behaviors</li>
 	<li>ZIP code</li>
 	<li>Age range</li>
 	<li>Income</li>
 	<li>Homeownership status</li>
 	<li>Likeliness to move</li>
 	<li>Behaviors (prior purchases and device use, for example)</li>
 	<li>Connections (do they know someone you know, or have they liked or followed you?)</li>
</ul>
<p>Facebook will also let you choose different objectives for your ad campaigns. One objective is to generate leads, but you can also run campaigns for brand awareness, engagement, reach, and conversions. If you install a Facebook pixel on your website, you can also retarget leads who have visited your website before.</p>
<p>The next decision you’ll have to make is the type of ad you want to run. There are several options on Facebook:</p>

<ul role="list">
 	<li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/business/ads/instant-experiences-ad-destination">Instant Experiences</a> load quickly and are mobile-optimized; they combine a number of features of other ad options to provide a “complete attention” experience. You can use video, carousel photos, tagged products, tilt-to-pan, and more in Instant Experiences. The “Instant Customer Acquisition” and “Instant Storyteller” templates are especially useful for real estate agents.</li>
 	<li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/business/ads/video-ad-format">Video</a> ads let you build a video using images and text, or upload and tweak a video for  advertising purposes. Video ads can be placed in-stream (in videos people are already watching on Facebook as an ad), on Facebook Stories, or in the news feed.</li>
 	<li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/business/ads/carousel-ad-format">Carousel</a> ads feature up to 10 scrollable individual images, each with an individual link. For real estate agents, they probably make the most sense when you have multiple listings in the same area to feature, or if you’re offering guides or resources to several different neighborhoods.</li>
 	<li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/business/ads/collection-ad-format">Collection</a> ads comprise one featured image or video with four smaller images arranged below the featured image in a sort of grid. They work well for retailers but can also be used to tell stories and convert leads.</li>
 	<li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/business/ads/slideshow-ad-format">Slideshow</a> ads are similar to video ads; there is movement, sound, and text available, but the file sizes for these ads are much smaller than videos, so they load faster and are still viewable on slower or less robust cellular networks.</li>
 	<li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/business/ads/photo-ad-format">Photo</a> ads are the easiest, simplest ads to make: a photo and your text is all you will need to put this ad together. But don’t discount these ads because they’re simple; <a href="https://www.facebook.com/business/news/insights/creative-combinations-that-work">Facebook itself has found that photo ads are among the most effective</a>.</li>
</ul>
<p>Determining the content of the ads you’ll run on Facebook is just as important as nailing the target audience and the type of ad. You don’t want to get a reputation as a spammy or tone-deaf agent, so consider using Facebook ads to promote things like:</p>

<ul role="list">
 	<li>New neighborhood guides or website resources; if you’re working to become well-known in your community, one of the best ways to do it is to give people help for free. You can make that help available on your website as a blog post, landing page, or download, and then advertise its existence on Facebook.</li>
 	<li>New or sold listings. People like looking at beautiful houses, so if you’ve recently listed or sold a home, post an ad about it on Facebook. What’s the point of advertising a sold home? Buyers who are ready to act now, or homeowners who are thinking about selling in the near future, will see the ad, and now you’re in their customer journey at the awareness or engagement stage.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Google Ads</h4>
<p>If there’s a digital platform that’s more widely used than Facebook, it’s Google. The company doesn’t disclose search statistics or volume, but <a href="https://99firms.com/blog/google-search-statistics/#gref">experts estimate that Google handles around 7 billion searches every day</a>. To rank organically at the top of Google’s search results is not easy, but there’s a shortcut available: <a href="https://ads.google.com/home/">Google Ads</a>.</p>

<figure class="w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image"><img src="https://i0.wp.com/www.yasserkhan.sg/wp-content/uploads/buying-a-house-serp-adds.png?resize=1170%2C898&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="1170" height="898" class="size-full wp-image-3373 aligncenter" data-recalc-dims="1" /></figure>
<p>Google Ads will populate your business name and website at the top (or on the first page) of certain search results on the flagship search engine and Google Maps. While you’re working to turn your website into the best real estate resource available in your town, Google Ads can make sure you’re on the front page until your search engine optimization (SEO) catches up.</p>

<h4>Other paid advertising</h4>
<p>Facebook and Google are far from the only games in town; Facebook’s <a href="https://business.instagram.com/advertising/">Instagram</a> vertical is another place you can showcase gorgeous photos of homes for sale, and <a href="https://business.nextdoor.com/local/local-business">Nextdoor</a> is capturing more interest from buyers and sellers as a viable and reliable place to find information about real estate. There are likely local opportunities that you could leverage, too—if you’re not interested in print advertising, it’s highly likely that the local newspaper will offer a digital ad package instead.</p>

<h4>Retargeting website visitors</h4>
<p>You can only use this strategy once you have your website set up and have run some campaigns to attract visitors—using a Facebook Pixel or another retargeting tool gives you the ability to run ads specifically for that group of people based on what they were initially interested in learning.</p>

<figure class="w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image"></figure>
<p>For example, maybe you have been running a campaign for first-time buyers, helping them figure out how much they need to save up for a house. A few days later, you could retarget any buyers who were interested in that campaign with a new campaign about down payment assistance programs. Or if you have a group of people interested in a specific listing, you can target them with a campaign inviting them to take a look at the floorplan in exchange for an email address.</p>
<p>When you retarget people who have already responded to one of your ads by clicking through to your website, then you have a better chance of increasing your high-quality leads.</p>

<h4>Real estate portals</h4>
<p>Love them or hate them, you can’t talk about lead generation in real estate without talking about portals. The fact is that Zillow in the US and PropertyGuru and 99.co in Singapore all capture insane amounts of real estate-related web traffic—almost 80 million unique monthly visits per month between the three of them—and there are a lot of agents who rely on that traffic to generate leads.</p>
<p>Portal leads become more expensive based on demand, so in the most popular ZIP codes, buying leads from the top portals might not be financially feasible for an agent who’s just starting out. The good news is that this is (and should be) just one of many lead generation tactics that you can employ.</p>

<h3>Inbound digital lead generation tactics</h3>
<h4>Local SEO</h4>
<p>The National Association of Realtors also gathered data around the first steps that buyers take during the home search process:</p>

<ul role="list">
 	<li>44% look online for homes</li>
 	<li>17% talked to an agent</li>
 	<li>11% looked online for information</li>
 	<li>7% contacted a mortgage lender</li>
 	<li>6% talked to a friend</li>
 	<li>6% drove around looking at homes</li>
</ul>
<p>More than half of the buyers who could become your leads (55%) start their home search online—which means that local SEO (search engine optimization) can be a very effective way to attract local buyers. Simply put, SEO is optimizing your website to show up higher in search results for terms that buyers and sellers are likely to search: “homes for sale (my town)” or “selling a house in (my town),” for example.</p>
<p>We have another full resource on SEO and other SEM (search engine marketing) tactics that you should definitely check out if this strategy interests you, but at bare minimum, you should create a Google My Business page for your business (<a href="https://www.google.com/business/">https://www.google.com/business</a>) and make sure you fill out your name, address, and profile—otherwise known as your NAP—consistently everywhere.</p>
<p>If you do this well, you can rank in Google’s map pack, the top three results shown when searchers are looking for a resource.</p>

<figure class="w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image"><img src="https://i0.wp.com/www.yasserkhan.sg/wp-content/uploads/google-map.png?resize=499%2C815&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="499" height="815" class="size-full wp-image-3374 aligncenter" data-recalc-dims="1" /></figure>
<p>Ranking highly in the map pack will help you generate more foot traffic, phone calls, and website visits for your business.</p>

<h4>Collect reviews and testimonials</h4>
<p>In some ways, this is more of a passive tactic than an inbound one, but the idea is that if you can gather together reviews and testimonials from previous clients (especially ones who can testify about how you saved the sale), then use them across your website and digital profiles, you’ll leave a trail of breadcrumbs for curious buyers and sellers.</p>

<figure class="w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image">
<div><img src="https://i0.wp.com/assets-global.website-files.com/5e99608fae81cfc99b44bcc1/5f22aefd42c08d0e4ead9831_Asset%2060%404x.png?w=1170&#038;ssl=1" alt="" class="aligncenter" data-recalc-dims="1" /></div></figure>
<p>One review or testimonial by itself isn’t a lead generation strategy, but if you gather enough of them together and make them visible, they send a powerful message.</p>

<h4>Landing pages</h4>
<p>A landing page is a space on your website where you are inviting visitors to “land” for a very specific purpose. On the landing page, you will make your audience some kind of offer—and the hope is that after an intelligent and thought-through campaign that ends with a landing page, when they get to the bottom of the page, they almost can’t help but to click the button and take the offer. (In exchange, you’ll get something of value: money, contact information, or another asset you’re seeking.)</p>
<p>You see landing pages frequently on sales-as-a-service (SaaS) or product websites. Typically, you’ll promote the landing page with social media or Google ads, and it will be the only place on your website where you are directing respondents.</p>
<p>Proponents of landing pages tend to follow the “more is better” philosophy; <a href="https://www.hubspot.com/state-of-marketing">Hubspot found that businesses with 10 to 15 landing pages increase leads by 55%</a> over companies with fewer than 10 landing pages. This could be because companies more experienced with making landing pages tend to make better landing pages! But it does show the power of a well-produced landing page in capturing business.</p>

<p>Although they are effective, many agents struggle with using landing pages well. The trick is to construct a page that makes the visitor feel like they are getting an amazing deal for whatever you are offering. Some landing page concepts that might lend themselves well to real estate in exchange for valid contact information could include:</p>

<ul role="list">
 	<li>Offer a free, no-commitment educational consultation (and mean it) for first-time homebuyers.</li>
 	<li>Offer a reliable home valuation (it should be better than what’s on the real estate portals).</li>
 	<li>Offer community guides (more on that below), preferably as a downloadable PDF.</li>
 	<li>Offer buyer guides, preferably as a downloadable PDF.</li>
 	<li>Offer details about or access to luxury listings.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Community pages</h4>
<p>The internet serves up so much information about so many different things, but imagine for a moment that you’re moving to a new area and you want to buy a house there. Where would you go to find those details online? Local publications are one option, but they’re usually more concerned about documenting current events instead of lifestyles.</p>
<p>Many real estate agents have seen this educational gap and are providing the kind of in-depth, extensive information about very specific locales that buyers crave and can’t find anywhere else. Creating hubs or landing pages for different communities in your area, and offering resources for buyers who might want to move there, can establish you as their agent of choice before you even know who they are.</p>
<p>What can you put on a community page? Some popular topics include:</p>

<ul role="list">
 	<li>Climate and landscape</li>
 	<li>Demographics</li>
 	<li>Economy and industry</li>
 	<li>Local businesses</li>
 	<li>Schools and colleges</li>
 	<li>Sports teams, arenas, and events</li>
 	<li>Theater and arts amenities</li>
 	<li>Recreational facilities</li>
 	<li>Medical infrastructure and healthcare</li>
 	<li>Transportation and commuting</li>
 	<li>Shopping</li>
 	<li>Restaurants and food</li>
 	<li>Festivals</li>
 	<li>History</li>
</ul>
<figure class="w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image">
<div><img src="https://i0.wp.com/assets-global.website-files.com/5e99608fae81cfc99b44bcc1/5f2a950f332d1105e0ad9090_Asset-14.png?w=1170&#038;ssl=1" alt="" class="aligncenter" data-recalc-dims="1" /></div></figure>
<p>You can tell prospective buyers (and current homeowners) everything they could possibly want to know about living in your area without ever once mentioning real estate, although you could also create community pages about:</p>

<ul role="list">
 	<li>Historic homes</li>
 	<li>Types of homes</li>
 	<li>Common inspection issues and problems</li>
 	<li>Lifespan of different materials in the area (roofs, driveways, etc.)</li>
 	<li>The housing market activity</li>
</ul>
<p>If you do go with something more real estate-related, make sure you are loading up the landing page itself (and whatever offer you’re providing) with as much detailed information as possible. A landing page or community hub page about housing market activity that promises both buyers and sellers that it’s a great time to transact is not nearly as helpful or as enticing as a landing page that states days on market are up … and promises to explain what that means.</p>
<p>Don’t forget to optimize your community landing pages or hub pages for search engines so that you can also leverage the power of Google to share your knowledge with leads.</p>

<h4>Reverse-engineer the competition</h4>
<p>You no doubt know who your top competitors are in your market. Have you ever thought about looking closely at what they’re doing and imitating it? If you’re brand-new at real estate, this can be one way to eliminate some of the guesswork involved in lead generation in your market; if this other agent has figured it out (and it’s working for them), then it should work for you.</p>
<p>Tools like SimilarWeb will show you where a specific website is generating most of its online traffic.</p>
<p>You can see that most of the traffic coming to AgentLEADS is coming from search engines like Google, followed by direct traffic. This definitely indicates that SEO could be a big potential source for new leads.</p>
<p>You can also see that AgentLEADS gets a decent amount of direct traffic and referrals. If you want to look further at referrals, you can see which sources are sending the most traffic to the website.</p>
<p>If you were AgentLEADS’ competition, you’d probably want to focus on Google, then possibly the referral and social media sites that are driving most of the traffic, because you already know they work well.</p>
<p>Another tool that can help you figure out what’s working well for the competition is <a href="https://builtwith.com/">BuiltWith</a>. Enter the website into the search box and it will spit out the different tools that the website is, well, built with. If you know the platforms that are working well for the competition, you can avoid the stress of research and testing yourself and just go with what you know works well.</p>
<p>With lead generation, you can always piggyback on the success of others to find your own way. It’s the fastest way to get started with a proven roadmap, which you can always modify as you go to get where you want to be.</p>

<h4>Virtual tours</h4>
<p>Buying a house sight-unseen is becoming more common, but those buyers aren’t the only ones who are interested in virtual tours. Traditionally, real estate marketing includes photos and a written description of the home; lately, video has been added to the mix. A virtual tour is something different: It’s a way for buyers to walk through the house from the comfort of their own, which can save everyone time.</p>
<p>There are a few different companies offering virtual tour software and 360-degree imagery. When you’ve decided on your platform and recorded the tour, make sure it’s available everywhere, including on your website and on social media.</p>

<h4>Video</h4>
<p>Almost no medium lends itself to real estate marketing (and lead generation) like video does. You can show a house much more intimately in a video than you can in photographs, and you can also market yourself more effectively using video. Agents who rely on video as a main lead generation strategy find that the clients who reach out to them feel like old friends because they’ve already gotten to know the agent.</p>

<figure class="w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image">
<div><img src="https://i0.wp.com/assets-global.website-files.com/5e99608fae81cfc99b44bcc1/5f2a9675fdb69e82c368c029_Asset-18.png?w=1170&#038;ssl=1" alt="" class="aligncenter" data-recalc-dims="1" /></div></figure>
<p>You can use videos for listings, obviously, but also neighborhood tours, recruiting, education, or testimonials—some agents profile other small businesses, others give history or shopping tours. The trick is to pick a topic or area of interest that’s deep enough that you can regularly produce videos … and then produce them regularly.</p>

<h4>Keyword targeting</h4>
<p>A keyword is a word or phrase that someone types into a search engine in order to find whatever they’re seeking. Using relevant keywords in your ads and on your website increases your chance of showing up during those keyword searches—and also helps you figure out what buyers and sellers in your area are searching—but you need to know which keywords are relevant and important first.</p>
<p>You can do this using a company that generates keywords or ranks keywords for you, or you can simply use Google itself to figure out what’s ranking in your area. This search for “Singapore homes for sale” shows 5 types properties and one attribute that buyers are searching for in the local area. Agents who work by geographic area of towns could do further keyword research to figure out what buyers in those areas want most.</p>

<figure class="w-richtext-align-center w-richtext-figure-type-image"><img src="https://i0.wp.com/www.yasserkhan.sg/wp-content/uploads/homes-for-sale-serp.png?resize=1144%2C746&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="1144" height="746" class="size-full wp-image-3372 aligncenter" data-recalc-dims="1" /></figure>
<p>Keyword research also helps you identify and choose words for your ads and website that resonate most with the users searching for information. You can also plug in keywords to search for specific types of homes (condos, for example), or to see what specific types of buyers and sellers need (military relocation in “your city”, for example).</p>
<p>As you can see from the search results above, company names also make their way into keyword terms and can be useful in terms of understanding what buyers and sellers are searching and how you can compete. Make sure you’re targeting your own company brand name and location so competitors don’t show up above you in search rankings.</p>

<h4>Bidding on competitor keywords</h4>
<p>There’s no rule that says you can’t bid on keywords that include your competitors’ brand names; as long as the ads you run <a href="https://support.google.com/adspolicy/answer/6118?hl=en">don’t include their brand name or trademark</a>, you are free to target competitor keywords. There three key reasons you might want to do this:</p>

<ul role="list">
 	<li>The keywords are relatively cheap compared to more common keywords in Google (such as “real estate”).</li>
 	<li>The traffic from these keywords will be high-quality because the users are searching for the same services you provide.</li>
 	<li>You’ll be exposing your brand to people who already know about your competitors.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Blogging</h4>
<p>When you’ve done keyword research to figure out what buyers and sellers are searching for on Google in your area, you might as well take the next step and start blogging to generate leads for your business. That said, you can’t just post a blog here and there and expect leads to start pouring in. Like video, blogging requires consistent, tenacious effort before you start seeing results.</p>

<div><img src="https://i0.wp.com/assets-global.website-files.com/5e99608fae81cfc99b44bcc1/5f2a97e21eb9590b7c3c74f6_Asset-20.png?w=1170&#038;ssl=1" alt="" class="aligncenter" data-recalc-dims="1" /></div></figure>
<h4>Facebook page</h4>
<p>To advertise on Facebook, you’ll want to create a Facebook Business page—but never forget that advertising should not be the sole purpose of this page. You can reach your followers for free with status updates, pictures, stories, videos, links, any form you like. If you can keep things engaging and connect well with your audience, you’ll generate more interest in your services, traffic to your website, and qualified leads than if you ignore it.</p>
<p>Just like a blog or YouTube channel, to get the best results from your Facebook Business page, you’ll need to post regularly and keep it varied and interesting. Make sure your page has all of the following elements:</p>

<ul role="list">
 	<li>Professional cover photo</li>
 	<li>Professional headshot</li>
 	<li>Your business name</li>
 	<li>Your website and contact information</li>
</ul>
<p>It’s also helpful to include if you can:</p>

<ul role="list">
 	<li>Testimonials</li>
 	<li>Business address and hours of operation</li>
</ul>
<p>And you’ll want to post regularly to keep the page looking vibrant and your business alive. Post new and sold listings, stories about your day, pictures of your pet, real estate-related news, business and development information, and anything else that you think will engage your followers.</p>

<h4>Live chat</h4>
<p>Offering a live chat function on your website is a lovely thing to do for buyers and sellers who have questions but who aren’t ready to pick up the phone and have a conversation with an agent just yet. There are a number of apps and bots available that you can use to answer those questions, including the Facebook Messenger app.</p>

<figure class="w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image"><img src="https://i0.wp.com/www.yasserkhan.sg/wp-content/uploads/bot.png?resize=465%2C838&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="465" height="838" class="size-full wp-image-3363 aligncenter" data-recalc-dims="1" /></figure>
<p>Typically, you can preset a number of answers to common questions that you hear from buyers and sellers, and then decide at which point to offer a human response. But the live chat app can pull listing information from your agency, direct buyers and sellers to relevant areas of your website, and more.</p>

<h4>Offer advice on social media</h4>
<p>When possible homebuyers and sellers have questions, one place they turn to get answers is social media. You can be a resource for them (and generate leads in the meantime by showcasing your expertise) by keeping tabs on those areas and responding to their questions.</p>
<p>Local Facebook Groups are one good place to find people asking real estate-related questions, and so is Nextdoor. Two other national sources to provide real estate advice are <a href="http://reddit.com/">Reddit</a> and <a href="http://quora.com/">Quora</a>, where the questions (and answers) are more evergreen (they stick around longer) than on Facebook or Nextdoor.</p>

<figure class="w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image">
<div><img src="https://i0.wp.com/assets-global.website-files.com/5e99608fae81cfc99b44bcc1/5f2a995d47a268e02ec74ccd_Asset-22.png?w=1170&#038;ssl=1" alt="" class="aligncenter" data-recalc-dims="1" /></div></figure>
<p>When you offer advice, remember that the advice is most important and selling your services is the last consideration. You want people to think of you as helpful, not a salesperson trolling for leads anywhere you can find them.</p>

<h4>Offer financial tools</h4>
<p>The financial education most of us got in school was, well, lacking. Many buyers are surprised when they sit down and start crunching the numbers because they realize they might have been able to buy sooner with a little bit of information and financial education.</p>
<p>Many real estate professionals offer tools like home valuation calculators, but home affordability calculators and down payment calculators can be two other financial tools that you can provide for buyers in particular. A trade-in calculator for sellers might help them figure out how much they could afford if they were to sell their current house. And if the users like the tools, they’ll reach out to the person providing them (that’s you) to learn more about making their dream a reality.</p>

<figure class="w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image"><img src="https://i0.wp.com/www.yasserkhan.sg/wp-content/uploads/how-much-is-my-home-worth.png?resize=1170%2C580&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="1170" height="580" class="size-full wp-image-3362 aligncenter" data-recalc-dims="1" /></figure>
<p>Third-party apps like <a href="https://homebot.ai/">Homebot</a> give agents the ability to provide granular financial details to homeowners, such as how much they could save if they were to refinance under current market mortgage rates, or how much they could afford to spend on a trade-up if they sold their current house and used the money for a down payment.</p>

<h4>Get creative with listings</h4>
<p>People love fun, weird marketing stories, and one easy way you can generate some interest in what you do and your business is by telling one. Agents have to market listings every day, and some of the methods they’ve used to sell homes are truly delightful.</p>
<p>Whether you’re dressing up in a T-Rex costume and posing in all of your listing’s photos or creating a listing landing page with stories about the family that’s leaving the home and the memories they created in it, going above and beyond with your listings can generate interest from buyers and other sellers who want a creative professional on their side.</p>

<h4>Text messaging</h4>
<p>Text messaging is one of the most reliable forms of communication in the modern era, and more and more of your clients are likely to be more and more comfortable with texting. It’s not just a way to communicate with more tech-savvy buyers and sellers, though; you can also automate text messages to send potential buyers details about other properties.</p>

<h4>Facebook Messenger</h4>
<p>Like text messaging, the beauty of Facebook Messenger is that it’s both instant and can be consumed when the recipient chooses. You can send links, images, emoji, and other assets, and Facebook also offers a Messenger bot that will allow you to send responses to specific requests without having to pay personal attention.</p>

<h4>Create an email course</h4>
<p>An email course is simply a campaign of emails sent in a specific order and including different lessons or instructions; put together, the recipient gets a level of coaching or education that’s more in-depth than they’d be able to absorb from a website, but not as deep as an in-person course taught by an instructor.</p>
<p>Real estate agents can offer email courses on:</p>

<ul role="list">
 	<li>How to save up for a house</li>
 	<li>How to make a home maintenance plan and budget</li>
 	<li>How to shop for a mortgage</li>
 	<li>How to shop for a house</li>
 	<li>How to declutter a house</li>
 	<li>How to stage a house</li>
 	<li>How to take placeholder listing photos or videos</li>
 	<li>How to spring-clean</li>
</ul>
<figure class="w-richtext-align-fullwidth w-richtext-figure-type-image"></figure>
<p>Users will get the offer for the email course via a landing page and provide their email address in order to receive it. You can set up the course using a service like Constant Contact, which will automatically deliver one lesson every day until the course is finished.</p>

<h4>Email segmentation</h4>
<p>When you have a lead’s email address, it makes sense to keep in touch via email … but how do you know what to send to whom? Email segmentation is how you make sense of your email lead generation strategy; you should already be tracking the people who get your emails in your lead management software or CRM, but you need to then categorize them according to whether they are a buyer or a seller (or a homeowner), their demographics (age, relationship status, level of education, career), where they live (as precisely as you can), and where they are in the customer journey.</p>
<p>This way, you can save the emails about new listings for buyers (and maybe for sellers who live nearby), the emails about downsizing for empty-nesters close to retirement age, and the emails about saving up for a down payment to buyers at the very beginning of the process. You can also avoid blasting people who aren’t interested in your services right now with email, which will make them less likely to unsubscribe from your lists and more likely to open any (relevant) email you send them in the future.</p>

<h2>Avoid wasting time on the leads that won’t answer your call: Qualifying your leads</h2>
<p>Generating leads is the first step to finding a new customer, but after you generate the leads, you have to figure out where your time will most effectively be spent moving forward. To do this, you have to qualify your leads—sort them into scoring categories so you know who’s ready to make a decision soon and who’s probably going to wait a few weeks or months before they choose an agent.</p>
<p>Most of the time, leads are qualified as “hot,” “warm,” and “cold.” If you think of these qualifications as corresponding to the awareness/evaluation/conversion funnel, then cold leads are in the awareness stage, warm leads are in the evaluation stage, and hot leads are ready to convert.</p>
<p>A good CRM (such as <a href="https://www.agentleads.sg/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">AgentLEADS Silver Plan CRM</a>) will give you the ability to score your leads so that you know who is ready to hire you today, who will be ready next week, and who will be ready next month.</p>
<p>&#x200d;<img src="https://i0.wp.com/www.yasserkhan.sg/wp-content/uploads/real-estate-leads-followup.png?resize=1170%2C582&#038;ssl=1" alt="" width="1170" height="582" class="size-full wp-image-3361 aligncenter" data-recalc-dims="1" /></p>
<p>Your lead scoring should depend on your niche, your target buyer or seller, and their own timeline to buy or sell. Remember that you also want to target potential buyers or sellers who haven’t entered or have already left their customer journeys; they can refer your services to friends or might use you as their agent the next time they want to buy or sell a house.</p>
<p>Leads who aren’t currently active or who are in the awareness phase of the customer journey will need to be “nurtured” in order to convert them from cold leads into warm leads or hot leads. This means you’ll keep in touch with them periodically and offer them assistance and resources, but you know they aren’t thinking about making a decision right now, so you’re focusing your attention elsewhere.</p>
<p>Leads who are active—in the evaluation or conversion stages of the funnel—will want to be courted more intently than inactive leads. And a lead at the conversion stage is as hot a lead as you’re going to find, so that’s where you should put most of your energy and efforts when you’re working on your lead generation.</p>
<p>Your criteria for qualifying leads won’t be the same as anyone else’s; maybe you’ll discover some demographic attributes that are unique to the buyers and sellers who flock to you. Be willing and able to tweak how you score and qualify leads so that you can ensure you’re spending your time wisely.</p>

<h2>Nurturing your leads to reach out to you when they're ready</h2>
<p>Some leads require more nurturing than others, but the philosophy behind nurturing a lead is much like nurturing a plant, animal, or child: You give them what they need to help them grow well. In the lead’s case, you are helping them grow from someone who thinks they might want to buy or sell a house someday into someone who’s ready to sign a contract this minute.</p>
<p>This growth pattern isn’t going to work for every lead because not every lead is going to want to grow in this direction. So if a lead unsubscribes or drops out during your nurturing efforts, don’t view it as a loss. Instead, think of it as another benefit of lead nurturing because you aren’t wasting time with leads who don’t truly want to buy or sell anything.</p>
<p>Your lead nurturing can and should be very different for buyers, sellers, renters, and homeowners. Think about the big problems and pain points that these different groups of clients experience, and build your lead nurturing around them. What do buyers need to know before they start shopping for homes online? What do sellers need to know before they open their doors to the listing photographer? What do renters need to know before they get ready to renew their lease? What do homeowners need to know at this particular time of year, or about this particular local item of interest?</p>
<p>This is another area where keyword research can help you determine what your clients want and how to deliver it to them. They’re turning to Google and other search engines for the answer, but if you can provide it for them directly, they won’t need to go searching.</p>
<p>Nurturing leads can also include some of the traditional outbound lead generation tactics we described, such as handwritten notes or phone calls. Using a CRM to keep track of the leads you’ve nurtured most recently and the ones that could most use your attention becomes critical once you start doing plenty of business and can’t remember which leads you last contacted.</p>

<h2>I’ve mastered lead generation! Now what?! Troubleshooting and improving</h2>
<p>Your lead generation strategy isn’t going to be perfect in your first couple of years as a real estate agent. It can and should be a work in progress because there are new methods for generating leads emerging constantly, and you’ll want to try what sounds interesting and discard what’s not working.</p>
<p>To troubleshoot and improve effectively, you’ll need the right tools. A website with tracking and analytics functionality and a CRM that you can use to keep tabs on your leads will be necessities on your lead generation journey. You won’t be able to keep up with your campaigns, website visitors, their place in the funnel, and your nurturing efforts by using a spreadsheet for very long at all. And you can’t troubleshoot and improve without data and feedback so you can assess what’s working well and what could use some tweaking.</p>

<h3>Here's how to troubleshoot problems with your lead generation and follow up:</h3>
<p>Step 0: Get your own real estate CRM <a href="https://agentleads.sg/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a> to track your numbers.</p>
<p>Step 1: Do <a href="https://www.yasserkhan.sg/blog/the-real-reason-why-youre-not-getting-enough-leads-and-what-to-do-about-it/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">this</a> to fix issues with few or low quality leads</p>
<p>Step 2: Do <a href="https://www.yasserkhan.sg/blog/5-reasons-for-few-appointments-and-how-to-book-your-calendar-choking-full/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">this</a> if you're having few appointments or a seeing lot of 'no shows'</p>
<p>Step 3: Do <a href="https://www.yasserkhan.sg/blog/5-reasons-for-few-closings-and-how-to-make-6-figures-in-90-days-flat/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">this</a> if you're not closing enough deals</p>
<p>Step 4: If everything else fails, then do <a href="https://www.yasserkhan.sg/coaching/mastery-coaching/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">this</a>, but only as a last resort.</p>
<p>Fix one thing and once you're done, move on to the next.</p>
<p>A core lead generation strategy should include three or four main tactics that synchronize to support each other, but once you figure those out, there’s no reason why you can’t add as many as you can handle (or hire help to handle for you). Find your core strategy first, then start adding new lead generation tools and techniques from this guide and from other sources to see what works best for you.</p>
<p>As you add more and your business expands, you might find that some tactics that worked very well for you initially are no longer as viable, and you might decide to invest those resources elsewhere. <br />
Your core strategy might change key tactics more than once, and that’s okay; it means you’re growing as an entrepreneur.</p>
<p>And one more thing;</p>

<h3>Always Remember to Call the Damn Leads!</h3>
<p>It's not enough to improve in your lead generation.<br />
You simply can’t generate a ton of leads only to ignore them! <br />
The #1 complaint prospects have about agents is they don't answer the phone!</p>
<p>It goes without saying that you have to call back!</p>
<p>With the right tools, the right attitude, and a solid plan, generating real estate leads doesn’t have to be (and isn’t) rocket science. It’s about deciding on a plan and committing to see where it takes you. <br />
Lay the groundwork with a high-performing real estate website and key basics like a CRM, and you’ll have a lead generation strategy that propels your business to the next level after putting in the work.</p>
