Best way to get leads
Hey guys I just want to share something that is working for me really well & I know a lot of agents , specially the new ones struggle to make just 1 sale in under 6 months. The way I do it is on Wednesdays I go through my office listings and find a vacant property I think is in a high traffic area, then I ask the listing agent for permission to hold an open house there that weekend and on thursdays I go out door knocking to the neighborhood with a market report of the month, my business cards, and a flyer that says Neighbor Exclusive Invitation with all the Open House info on it. On Saturday and Sunday I hold open houses, sometimes 2 different listings each day, sometimes the same one because if I get a lot of leads from one house I will stay there. Do this for 2 months straight every week from 10-4 every saturday and sunday and I guarantee you will close at least 2 deals, I closed 3 in 2 months and had another 3 in the process of closing or in escrow as we call in here.

I first thought a stripper pole and waterhose to create leads. But then took my mind out of the gutter.
The issue imho is converting your thinking from the 3% agent income to the 30% investor income. When you do you'll need fewer leads.
