What Can an Assistant for Real Estate Do to Help Your Business Grow

Wednesday, March 21st, 2007

When you work in real estate, there are plenty of times that you just need someone who can help you out a bit. Here are some of them:

  • Communicate with your clients. There are going to be times when you’re out of the office with one client but another has a question that they need answered. An assistant can get those questions answered – and get in touch with you if only personal contact will do;
  • Coordinate listings. An assistant can help you to be sure that all the information about each listing is kept in order so that you can find the information you need when you need it;
  • Create postcards or flyers. You’re going to need to advertise new listings and keep people up to date about changes or news. But maybe you have an eye for houses, not eye-catching advertising; an assistant can help your real estate business by designing postcards and flyers for you;
  • Creating, maintaining or editing your web site. Not everyone has the time or motivation to keep his or her web site up to date and busy real estate professionals are no exception. An assistant can make sure that your page is up and running and that all of the information on it is current.

Why worry about those things that go undone? Look into hiring an assistant for your real estate business.

Running a Small Real Estate Business?

Tuesday, March 20th, 2007

If you are running a small real estate business, you might find yourself in a situation similar to the one many small business owners have: not enough space.

When you look around your office, what do you see? Is the light flashing to indicate that you have voice mail? Do you have so many email messages that you don’t know which need to be read and which have already been answered?

Whether you feel that there just aren’t enough hours in the day to get everything done or you just don’t think there’s room in your office for one more person, it may be time to look into a virtual assistant.

You can route your phone calls to a virtual assistant and she can prioritize call-backs for you. You can have your virtual assistant sort through your emails and let you know which need to be answered quickly – in fact, your virtual assistant might even be able to reply to those emails for you, depending upon what your agreement is.

If you are running a small real estate business – indeed, if you are running any small business – and you need some help, a virtual assistant might be just what you need to take your business to the next level.

Using Technology to Make Time for Realtors

Thursday, March 15th, 2007

Virtual Assistants put time into Realtors busy schedule

Time is the most valuable of commodities – how you use it determines your success in all things, not least in terms of business success.

Once time has been used you don’t get it back – life is not a rehearsal – so finding time to put into your schedule is probably the most tangible benefit that a virtual assistant can provide you with.

Top realtors know that to be successful and to remain so, they must focus on what they do best and especially on what produces the revenue – listing homes and finding buyers for them.

Everything else is non-productive activity that if at all possible should be delegated away and managed. Virtual assistants have developed as technology, and especially the internet, have revolutionized how we communicate. Now there is little that cannot be achieved by a virtual assistant supporting a realtor no matter where that virtual assistant is located.

What the technology is does not really matter – it is what the virtual assistant can deliver by effective use of technology that does – it is called time, irreplaceable time.

Assistant for Real Estate is a Virtual assistant that can give you Time back in your schedule

Tips for Staging a Home

When it comes to showing a listing there are some very basic rules that need to be followed and here are a few of the more obvious ones:

out of sight and out of mind – remove all pets and pet paraphanelia – you clients may love Fido and his quirky odors and habits but not everyone loves a pet;

out of sight and out of mind 2 – same applies to children – out of the way, preferably out of the home so there are no noises and distractions – we want the potential buyer to be focused on the home not being assailed by a questioning 5 year old or a surly teenager feeling their space is being invaded when their room is inspected;

clean up the yard – first impressions do count so ensure that the yard is clean and tidy, mow the lawn and any basic repairs to the fence gets done;

make a grand entrance – walking into a home for the first time makes a great play on the mind of a potential buyer – ensure that the hallway is clean and tidy, free of obstruction and even better, give it a new coat of paint so you get that just painted smell and feel as you enter.

For more tips and hints on how to stage a home to sell take a look at our main website and order our free home staging guide.
