SOCIAL DISTANCING IN REAL ESTATE ...
WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO NOW?
Make no mistake, offer presentations are happening at this very moment. People still need to buy and people still need to sell. New listings will come up this week. Showings will continue as long as Sellers, Buyers and Realtors are ready, willing and able. We may have to adjust our strategies and habits but we encourage you to continue to use your time in an effective and positive way. Find the opportunity.
- Start (and finish!) on-line learning and designation courses, RECO renewal courses;
- Telephone prospecting! Everyone is home... and likely more eager to chat (email cdaniel@remaxrougeriver.com for an up to date DNCL compliant call list for your neighbourhood);
- Encourage and provide direction for potential Sellers to prepare their home for sale (decluttering, small repairs, spring cleaning);
- Clean up your database (or finally get it together);
- Revisit your 2020 Business Plan;
- Find a way to contribute in your community (check on elderly and vulnerable neighbours, offer support to a small local business);
- Tune up your FaceTime and video skills so you are prepared for virtual showings, open house tours, market updates;
- Reach out to your active and potential Buyers to discuss recent interest rate drops and what it means for them - keep them motivated!;
- Make sure you and your current Sellers & Buyers are comfortable with electronic signatures;
- Don't stop! ... except to wash your hands.
