Best Business Practices for Realtors in 2021

We have been living in a fast-paced business environment since the internet and cellphones took over. However, the year 2020 proved to be a huge challenge, especially for realtors. All of these events could possibly put a lot of brokers in an anxious mood, unable to do business as usual. Here are a few things brokers should take up or go back to, in order to be able to keep up with the dynamics:

Improve Client Experience

Clients’ expectations have shifted. There are still a few things that real estate clients want as usual, such as neighborhood expertise and getting a better price. Nevertheless, here are some of the consideration you need to have in order to improve your client experience:

  • Provide more accurate information about the property
  • Be able to promote the property with finesse
  • Provide quick services
  • Be accessible 

Ramp Up Listings on Social Media

Sharing listings on your social media, especially Facebook,  is an important step for the effective promotion of your products (i.e. your property listings). Some might take this for granted, but the amount of visibility you can get on social media is not something you should overlook.

Focus on Your Sphere of Influence

The real estate business is fueled mainly by referrals. The best source of referrals is unquestionably your SOI. Your SOI is your friends, family members, and most importantly, your previous happy clients. 

The question is how we can possibly benefit from our sphere of influence. The answer is simple. This part of your network is easily approachable. You can call them and discuss your available listings. They are more likely to pick up the phone, share the listings with their friends, and refer you to the right people if needed.
