Homebuilders are always trying to find a real estate professional with the ability to do the 3 things listed below:
1. Find Building Sites!
Finding building sites is a common problem for homebuilders.
Most homebuilders are anxious to work with a real estate
professional who can help find building sites for new homes.
2. Sell Presale Homes!
Homebuilders usually appreciate a real estate professional who
is motivated to help them sell their new homes. Homebuilding
can be a risky business so a real estate professional who knows
how to market and sell new homes is invaluable. Qualified real
estate agents and brokers know how to communicate with
buyer prospects and always focus on “customer service”.
Smart real estate professionals understand that prospects or
customers want to work with a sales person they “like and trust”.
When you communicate well with prospects and provide all of
the information they need you are a true professional and will be
rewarded – the prospects will appreciate your efforts and want to
work with you exclusively.
3. Sell Speculative Homes before They Are Finished!
Building speculative homes can be very risky for a homebuilder
and high carrying costs has meant financial hardship for many.
Homebuilders like to work with real estate professionals who
understand marketing concepts and have the ability sell
speculative homes before construction completion.
If you have skills and can do the 3 things shown above you will have many homebuilders looking for your marketing and sales assistance.
When you can sell homes faster than your competition
you will always have homebuilder accounts.
