Want to know the secret to converting online buyer leads at 10% or higher? š¤
How you answer, how you speak on the phone, and what you say really matters. While most agents will ask, are you working with a realtor? Are you buying with cash or do you need to get a mortgage? Are you prequallified? These are realtor questions. And yes, they are important to get answered, but the buyer can answer them later. You need to get in front of the client first. If you never get in front of the client you will never get the transaction.
My team and I convert our leads because we start out of phone calls with hi, this is scott kompa from the scott kompa group at EXP realty. I saw you were interested in 588 Orchard Rd, when would you like to see it? Tuesday at 1 pm, perfect. Iāll call and set up the appointment.
Are there any other properties that you would also like to see? Ok, I will add them to the list to see.
Then finally, what has made these properties stand out to you, what interests you in them?
After they tell you what they are looking for in a home, we continue with here is my next step. Once I get confirmation that we can get into the property at 588 Orchard Rd I will call you back or text you. Which is better for you? Then of course we contact them back after we get our appointments confirmed just like we said we would.
This process is called ALM, appointment, location, and motivation. So before you go for the realtor qualifying questions which turn off most buyers, develop rapport with the buyer and see your buyer lead conversion rate skyrocket! š

Whatās the secret to getting your offer accepted? The real estate market is on fire! This is Scott Kompa and I've been asked by many agents how are we getting our offers accepted by sellers as we have some agents closing 11 deals a month. If you have been submitting offers for your buyers or even if you are watching this and looking for your own dream home, you know the demand and competition for houses is pretty intense. So how do you win a bidding war? In most cases, the key is to choose a strategy that fits the needs of the seller. Here are some of my secret sauce tips for Bidding War Victories 1. Offer the highest price on your first offer. This might seem obvious, but there are buyers who are still submitting lowball offers thinking that the seller might do a call for highest and best, and then the seller just accepts an offer. 2. Use an escalation clause in your offer. Unfortunately, there are a lot of agents who do not know what they are and how to properly use them. Many agents even advise their clients against accepting them. A tip is the most agents will make the escalator $1,000 which isnāt the best choice. The better choice would be to make it substantial such as $5,000. If you are offering only $1000 more, there may be another offer that is less but has some kind of better terms. 3. Cash is king! When there are multiple offers on a property, cash offers get sellers' attention. Keep in mind you have to exercise extreme caution as we have had ācash offersā presented to us and then it turns out the buyers didnāt actually have cash. 4. Ah, the love letter. A personal letter can put you ahead of other buyers in a big way, but you have to be careful that the letter does not violate any fair housing rules or discriminate against anyone. So use caution about what you include in the letter on this one. 5. Use a local lender, trusted lender. There are many agents who frown upon receiving an offer from space ship mortgage or o

This is Scott Kompa and Iām sharing what you need to do right now to get ahead of all the competition including Zillow and all the other companies who will be requiring a referral fee of 25-50% on every transactionā¦ š« 1.

Someone Stole $20 š Dont Let this happen to you!
Someone just stole $20 from my bank account. In my bank account I had $86,400 and about 2 weeks ago I found out a neighbor of mine stole $20 from me. The neighbor, who was once a friend, started boasting and making claims on facebook. He was making up lies to make him look better. A friend sent me a text and said I better check out his posts. What the guy forgot about was that he never blocked or unfriended me. So I went on his facebook post and set the record straight. I even told his āfriendsā that we had a falling out and I just wanted to be left alone. This guy kept making his comments. So I went over to his house to confront him. He said it was good to see me after 4 years and unfortunately it took these circumstances to get me over. He said he deleted the post. So I went back to my house only to get a text from a friend that this guy made another post. So I went back on facebook and let him have it by unleashing icbm missles by telling his friends why we had the fallout. I wont go into that again. So without getting into any more detail, this guy ended up stealing a total of $7,200 from me.
My friends, I apologize to you because I did something that I preach against doing. I should have just ignored the comments. By engaging with a hater, I let him take advantage of me. The $7,200 that he took from me, was not money. It was time. There are 86,400 seconds in a day and I let him eat up 7200 seconds or about two hours. This is time that I cant ever get back. And to his āfriendsā, I am an ass for blasting him on his embarrassing tasks. He said he has since deleted all the posts, and now blocked me. Who knows if he did. It does not matter. The point is that I took the bait and to some I may look like a mean person who yells, get off my lawn as people walk nearby. And who know how much future business may have been lost by my actions. My message to you is to value your time and always do the right thing. Even if it means turning
