Pre-Listing Package- Week 2 Challenge

By
Real Estate Agent with CondoDomain.com
OK I know lots of you are looking to find out what Midori and I came up with. She posted yesterday some of what we did. I was going to yesterday, but I was fried and needed to relax! What a week.

Like I said the other day, when we got this challenge I knew it was going to be hard for me since I had no listing presentation. I pretty much would wing it. I was only using a CMA from the MLS as one, and no idea about using a pre-listing. I have a listing appointment coming up and you know I am definetly going to send this presentation to him.

The email I sent Rich was both a combination of video and texted. Since I have never met Rich I wanted him to be able to put the face with the name. Making it a little more personalable. Here is the email I sent. I wanted to be aware of how many homes were already on the market and what to expect when I come a sit down with him.


Hi Rich

Just wanted to let you know that I have attached some documents to look over that I will be bringing to our appointment. I have also attached a PowerPoint presentation on my marketing plan. We will go into detail at our meeting, this is just an overview.

Below is a quick video to go along with the email.

Here are just some stats on what is Active and Sold or Pending. Just so that you are aware of what you are up against.
For Broward County
Active- 17,352          Sold- 629           Pending- 1521

For Tamarac
Active- 730                Sold- 24            Pending- 49

For Woodmont
Active- 53                  Sold- 1               Pending- 2

Communication is the key to a satisfactory business relationship.  To assist with communication, we've developed a team to assist and to ensure you get the best service.  I find it helps to give you a detailed overview of what to expect while your house is on the market.  If you have concerns about any of the items in , please, please express them - call me!  Nothing is carved in stone and we work very diligently at working with every seller in the way that is best for the seller.

Who do you know that would like to buy or sell, referrals are the greatest compliments I can ask for!


In the email I attached a Pre-listing letter, Pre-listing package-which included a listing agreement- sellers disclosure and an AS-IS addendum, and a PowerPoint slide show. Here is a few shot from the show, I know Midori posted a few, here are a few more.

Jeannette NeerpatThis is my commitment, wanting to let him know what I stood for, and that he would have it in writing.

I have been told by other agents that a listing presentation take awhile to put together and all we had was a weeks time. I was so nerved wrecked, Midori had to calm me down all week.  I kept coming up with all these different ideas and knew we couldn't use them all. Whil Midori was at the tech fair I was working on adding so many things to the slide show. I emailed it to her and she disected it. I am so happy that I have a mentor who understands what I am thinking and which way I am headed. Its easier to adapt that way.

Now for those who missed the video email that Midori posted the other day I will post it here again for you to view. Thank you all for the congrats. Its very much appericated!!

I just finished a real estate coaching program and he really promoted the need for a pre-listing package. Terry Murphy was a guest speaker and she shared some dynamic information too.  I'm looking for others who have great ideas so I greatly appreciate this post.

I think this is great, definitely something that we have been comtemplating - pre-listing appointments . . . doing them by email is a great idea.  Thanks!

Funny several years latter, we are still talking about making video a part of our plan, and yet it isn't consistent.

I suppose step by step listing presentations are important.  I don't know.  I do know that in my case they get in the way.

I prefer to give my presentation eyeball to eyeball, from memory of the pertinent details, then leave my supporting documentations for them to look at later.

I'm there to close a listing agreement, not to teach,

But in the final analysis, what's best is what works for you.  One thing is for certain, new agents have no business trying to wing it, and their brokers need to make certain that they don't.

Your Power Point is to the point and visually looks very good.  Both are important to success.

I didn't realize how old this post was.  I was going to say that the good thing is that you can work on it.  You can practice.  The presentations can get better.  Sure the first one is shaky and put together in a rush, but we learn what works and what doesn't soon enough!

Thanks for the ideas,

they are timeless.

I believe that if you have a great listing presentation( even if it is only a basic powerpoint), you'll just need minor adjustments to your blue print;  otherwise: you are ready for your listing appointment:)

Like surgery, the twists, turns that happen in the listing process is like tennis. You know where to place the ball to stay inbounds, you make it easy setting the expectations for the other side of the net. How you market is the best way to show the seller this is the treatment, the level of professionism and detail your cute cape is going to get when you decide the two of us are a good fit, match. And sign right here (pointing) on that dotted line to get the process started.

I thought Madori was a drink there for a minute. Until I read the post in full.

I like the templates. 

Listing presentations should sem natural around the client. Walk in like you already have the listing, 95% of the time you will. Backed by your great services of course.

I listed 21 houses my first month in real estate. In the worst part of town. Reasoning; I needed to get comfortable with the process. You need to have confidenc, even if you are new or old in the business.

Good luck and success to you!
