Effective Real Estate Sales Strategies

By Kenya England


Selling property is one of the hardest things to sell simply because no one is going to carry a big amount of money that is enough to buy a piece of property. However, there are actually some ways to go about on how to convince potential buyers to buy property like condominium units or houses. For those who are in the business, here are a few real estate sales strategies that may help.

Now as a sales agent, there are three very common methods to prospect for potential buyers. These methods would be through friends and referrals, through cold calling, and through manning booths and giving fliers. One should try all of these prospecting methods in order to have a chance at getting prospective buyers.

Now the first strategy when selling property would be of course to get as many people as possible to be interested in this kind of thing. One should actually learn to know which type of people would be interested in the type of property that he will be selling. For example, if one is into high end condos, then the agent has to sell high end condos and the same would go for low end condos.

Now one of the biggest mistakes that a lot of people would make would be to hard sell which is a desperate move. Now people actually do not like to be sold things in general. So the technique here is to make sure that one is not selling anything but rather sharing something so that the potential buyer will be more comfortable.

Now when it comes to giving discounts, one also has to use his brain a little bit. Now different agents are going to be given different discounts depending on what rank he is in and what team he is in. So the trick here is to make sure that the buyer would feel like one is already giving their best discount no matter what has been given to them.

Of course this will take a little bit of smooth talk to pull off. Now in order to convince the customer, one cannot give the discounts right away. In order to convince the buyer, one has to give the discounts one by one so that the buyer will be anticipating and will not take the agent for granted.

Once the buyer is already more convinced, then the agent may say that he will be giving another discount that would come from his own commission. A lot of agents would do this and would in turn ask the company if they could be given a higher commission rate in order to service that discount. Others would ask the company for more discounts.

When the buyer seems quite convinced, bring in the small down payment scheme as well as the good deal payment scheme. Give the client several options on how he would like to pay and make it seem like the client is paying little by little for a long period of time. Do not forget to collect a small down payment so that the sale is sure.
