3 Questions that Will Define Your Real Estate Practice in 2017

Do you want to give sellers a 5-star experience and win more listings… while helping change the real estate industry for the better?


Let me ask you a question: How many of you have been on a listing appointment, and the home owner asked… “Will you discount your commission?”

While I can’t see a show of hands, I’m going to assume that pretty much EVERYONE’s hand just shot up.

This is a concerning trend in our industry… Not because sellers are asking this question (they have every right to!), but because of WHY they are asking it: they don’t see our value in the home selling process.

Most sellers assume that all agents are going to do the exact same things to sell their home. They will put it in the MLS, stick a sign in the yard, and just wait for it to sell. So they just shop around for the best “deal”.

This perception creates a negative impression of our profession. And that negative view opens the door for new technologies and companies to come in and try to take market share.

If we want to be successful in today’s market, we need to fight for relevancy. We need to demonstrate our value to sellers.

How do we do this? By changing how we sell real estate. We need to take an aggressive, proactive approach to selling real estate that utilizes the latest online marketing techniques.

The line hasbeen drawn… It’s time to take our market back, and take control of your business and the commissions you earn!

What side of the line are you on? Ask yourself…

Do You Want Consumers to Have a Better Impression of Our Industry and Profession?

We’ve all encountered the negative and damaging views some consumers hold of our industry. REDM agents are committed to changing the way real estate is seen by banding together and elevating the professionalism of our industry. How?…

Do You Want to Get Recognized for Giving Clients a 5-Star Experience?

The old days of selling real estate are gone… You know, placing a listing in the MLS, putting a sign in the yard, and praying that it sells. Today, sellers have much higher expectations. They expect us to market their properties across a wide range of channels, including online marketing. REDM agents get the skills and expertise needed to meet those expectations, and use them to deliver a 5-star experience. By satisfying our customers, we lift the overall impression of our industry. And happy sellers mean more referrals.

Do You Want to Promote Your Brand and Grow Your Business?

Here’s what makes REDM so powerful: While gaining the skills to better serve clients and change our industry, REDM agents also learn how to use only marketing tactics to promote their brands and grow their own businesses.

If you answered YES to these questions, then count yourself among those who want to change our industry for the better while changing our industry for the better.

Close to 1000 agents have already committed to learning the skills to accomplish these goals by earning their REDM certification.

And later this week, you’ll have the chance to join them when we open registration for the REDM course.

But this enrollment period is special. You’ll the the first group to take part in REDM: Live! We’ll share the details on what that means later this week…
