6 Strategies for Generating Real Estate Leads Online:

Love is in the air. We aren't talking about romantic love, but just love in general - an appreciation for those who have brought you success. You certainly didn't do this alone. Valentines Day is a time to celebrate your loved ones, regardless if it is romantic or platonic.

With a new year comes a natural longing to renew ourselves. Start new habits, lose old ones. It's a time to shed what we had to go through the prior year and achieve something better. There are some common moves that real estate agents make that might not benefit them in the long run.

You are a real estate agent, and your whos government stimulus check came in, or maybe you just closed on a deal and now have some extra money from your most recent comission. If you are looking for a creative way to flush that money down the toilet then look no further.

There is no such thing as good news or bad news - there is just news. And it is your outlook to life that determines wether it is good or bad. While most of us can agree the cornavirus, businesses shutting down, and people out of work is absolutely not good news - there are still a few ways to make the most out of it.

A new year is the perfect time to adopt new habits. It is also an acceptable time to drop the old ones. There are some behaviors that agents exhibit that cause them to be not as successful as they should be. In today's article we will uncover some of those excuses.

With so many aspects of being a real estate agent moving from in-person interactions to digital interations, some may wonder where the best place to generate leads are. If you can't go to conferences, networking events, and open houses - where do you meet new people?

Wait! Don’t throw in the towel just yet! Just because it’s chilly outside doesn’t mean it’s time to hibernate from your real estate leads until next year. While the Real Estate market typically slows down during the winter months, it can also be a great time for converting real estate leads.

Through my personal experience with friends who happen to be real estate agents, there are a few mistakes that I've seen that can lead to some awkward moments or loss of future business.
