Expired Listing Marketing System – How to Build One

11 May, 2010

Expired listings are the hottest “cold lead” you can find. These people tried to sell their home, and the market unapologetically told them it didn’t want it, which creates a more motivated seller with a dose of realism. If you’re in a reasonably busy market, you could probably make a healthy living from just expired listing marketing alone.

There are several people representing their system as the magic bullet for this booming market. In this article, I’ll show you how to leverage some off the shelf parts and very quickly, and efficiently create your own expired listings marketing system. Our goal for you is creating a very turn-key system that simply delivers leads to you with minimal to no work.

Any expired listings system will require several parts:

First, you’ll need source data of expired listings. Typically this coms from your mls, but there are 3rd-party providers of this as well, which will attempt to run a name-match on the address, and will send you data in a format easier to deal with. One such company is TheRedX (no affiliation), though you can certainly get this data free from your MLS. What one pays for is ease-of-use, as they will email you a CSV file. My opinion is this service is definitely worth the cost, but for those concerned more about money than time, you can certainly pull this data yourself, then key it into a reverse-address-lookup to try and get a resident’s name.

Second, you’ll need a way to get in front of these potential listings, which will require using postcards. In most cases, a phone number is not available or the resident is on the do-not-call list. It’s not enough.

Here you have a few choices:

a. You can wait until the listings stack up to 100 or more, then use a postcard service to print and send them all at once. This is inferior because expired leads depreciate in a matter of hours, and within a few days are pretty much worthless. You need to reach the potential seller very quickly. You need the right information seen by the right people at the right time.

b. You can deliver them to the house, or have someone else do it. This is the best for timeliness, as if you’re first in line, you can “lay a bear trap” for other real estate agents, as I’ll show you in a bit. This helps you get the listing, but is time-consuming, or costly if you hire someone else to deliver these for you.

c. You can pre-print the postcards, then hand-address them as you get the data. This is a bit of work to set up, but low cost overall. The biggest drawback to this is that it will require your time every day, and most people quickly fall off doing this as soon as they get busy. Also, if you use multiple cards, this can get complicated quickly, as you’ll have certain people on day 1, others on day 2, others on day 3.

d. You can purchase a postcard automation system which will print, stamp, and mail, in your own handwriting, even multi-card campaigns for roughly $.52 per postcard. This is especially effective for postcard campaigns, where doing it oneself would get horribly complicated and time-consuming. This card automation system allows for pre-created campaigns and typically includes scanning of your handwriting to turn it into a font. One upside to this is if you subscribe to a 3rd-party data source, you can even, with a bit of work, make this 100% hands-free.

Third, you’ll need your message. This can be a bit tricky, because it’s easy to fall into being the bearer of bad news. Personally, I’m a big believer in using video, because people are busy, and sometimes lazy. If they need to read a lot, you’ll need to catch them with a killer headline, or your postcard will go straight to the trash. Two proven techniques I’ve seen work are to first, tell them it’s more than just about the price, and second to make it clear “the Market” has told you the house isn’t worth that. Using a video, phrased as a 3rd party, can also deliver news the seller doesn’t want to hear – which is that the house was probably overpriced.

Only 1.5% of all agents follow up over 5 times, yet 60% of sales happen after the 5th contact. See the pattern? Now you know the reason for the 80/20 rule, about 20% of the real estate agents outselling the other 80%. The trick: automated followup, via email sequential autoresponders and card campaign automation.

Your expired listing marketing system should let the potential seller know it’s about pricing, promotion, and presentation. They may be able to leave the price as-is, provided they increase how the home is presented (read: add staging, re-paint, cosmetic repairs, etc.), and promotion (read: reach a wider audience). If you are the one to tell them their house is overpriced, they’ll shoot the messenger. Don’t be that casualty. Instead, try “the market of supply and demand has told us in it’s current condition, the price requires adjustment.” I like to remind people I’m like the weatherman – I don’t make the weather, I just let you know how to prepare. Expired listing sellers are probably frustrated, so use caution in your language.

Our company, has produced a customizable video called “Help! My Home Won’t Sell” or “Why Didn’t My Home Sell?”. If you decide to produce your own video, be sure to have a crystal-clear “call to action” for them to call you at the end, and illustrate the value by doing so.

Whatever course you choose, I hope this helps you get more business. Real estate marketing is competitive, but can lead to many closed transactions and millions in income. Investing just a few hours to set up your turn-key expired listings marketing can provide a pillar of business for years to come.

The Top Neighborhood for Austin Texas Real Estate is Steiner Ranch!

11 March, 2010

Steiner Ranch, in mls area RN, or zip code 78732, was named “Best Master-Planned Community” in the greater Austin area from the Austin Business Journal in 2004. And for good reason. This mega-community, bordered by RR 620 to the north, Lake Austin to the West and South, and neighboring River Place to the east encompasses a nature preserve-like atmosphere to complement its stellar location of rolling hills and the winding placidity of Lake Austin, which, moderated by the LCRA, retains a constant depth year round. 

With 819 acres set aside for preservation and 12 miles of trails, Steiner prides itself in fusing well with its environment. The 27,000-acre Balcones Canyonland Conservation Preserve surrounds the development, offering many homes and sites the backyard of a consistent greenbelt. The general area hosts 10 golf courses, eight boat launches, 19 marinas and 15 public parks. Water enthusiasts are within 5 minutes of either Fritz Hughes, Selma Hughes or Mary Quinlan Parks, all providing public access to Lake Austin.

Within Steiner, homeowners are required to respect the design standards and upkeep of the community by paying two installments totaling $640 in HOA dues. These dues not only include trash and recycling service, but also employ a full-time activities director who helps organize events such as summer camps and wine tastings. Gated areas within Steiner Ranch have additional fees to cover the gates and private street maintenance.

The University of Texas’ own Golf Club, a 71 – 7,225 yard championship course, sprawls over 275 acres in the middle of the neighborhood. Wincing and regrouping from a fire that downed the clubhouse at the beginning of 2008, the home course for the University’s Men’s and Women’s varsity golf programs offers very limited membership opportunity for local golfers.
Lake Austin Spa, the only destination health spa in the country with a waterfront location, is located at the southern tip of Steiner Ranch. Ranked #2 by Conde Nast Traveller as the best destination spa in North America, the spa has recently renovated its rooms with an eye on the top spot. Housing an intimate 40-room resort with a new 25,000 sq foot spa facility, their laid back approach on 19 acres continues to live up to its reputation.

Not surprisingly, schools get good marks at Steiner Ranch. Served by the Leander Independent School District, students attend Recognized Steiner Ranch Elementary, and both Exemplary Laura Welch Bush Elementary and Canyon Ridge Middle Schools, all located within the community. Nearby Cedar Park High is the destination for 9th-12th grade students.

With so much to offer, Steiner Ranch still manages to offer homes for many different types of buyers. Starting in the low $200’s (and heading well over $1 million), homeowners enjoy larger homes ranging from 2,000-7,000 sq feet.

Canada Real Estate: How to Buy Real Estate in Canada?

10 March, 2010

Canada being a developed North American country has a well defined and mature process when it comes to buying real estate. Like the United States, much attention and focus is given to protecting the rights of both the buyer and the seller. While at times this can result in excessive documentation, buyers must remember that following the process is in their interest.

It is strongly recommended that those looking to buy real estate in Canada get themselves pre approved if they are seeking a loan to buy real estate. A pre approval not only provides the buyer an estimate of the loan they can qualify for, it also gives the seller the necessary confidence in the financial ability of the buyer. In addition, a buyer with a pre approved loan can now focus on the properties that are in line with their budget rather than spending time and money on finding properties which later turn out to be beyond their financial capacity.

A good place to start for a buyer of real estate in Canada is to find a licensed real estate agent. A licensed real estate agent who understands the budget and the kind of house the buyer is looking for can more often than not find properties which are hard to find otherwise. A licensed real estate agent can also help a buyer of real estate property prepare and submit purchase offer, negotiate with the seller or the seller’s agent and help ensure that the entire process is smooth and transparent to the buyer. In addition to a real estate agent, a buyer of real estate in Canada will also need the services of a lawyer or a notary if the buyer is purchasing the real estate in Quebec. The lawyer (or the notary) will ensure that all the processes are followed and help ensure the legal interest of the buyer of the real estate.

After identifying the property, the next step in the process is to furnish a legal document to the seller known as an ‘Offer to Purchase’ or ‘Agreement of Purchase and Sale’. If the buyer has a real estate agent or a seller, they will prepare the document for the buyer and ensure that the terms and conditions stated in the document along with the price are what the buyer and the seller had agreed to. Typically, the document undergoes several revisions as the seller and the buyer review it to ensure their interests are honored in the document. Once the terms and conditions have been agreed, the agreement becomes final.

The buyer of real estate in Canada should be cognizant of the costs involved in buying a property. Listed below are some of the costs that the buyer has to incur:

o Mortgage insurance and loan application fees

o Appraisal fees

o 5% deposit that is typically paid when an offer to purchase is accepted

o Down payment of around 25% less the 5% deposit

o home inspection fee

o Land and deed registration fees

o Prepaid property tax refund

o Home insurance

o Survey costs

o Legal fees

o Title insurance

The last and final step in the process is closing of the escrow. On this day, the transaction is completed and ownership transferred to the buyer. The buyer can now have the title deed registered in their name.
