Outsource to a Real Estate Virtual Assistant for Success: Day 2
For my second tip this week I thought I would cover calendar management. Your virtual assistant can do your scheduling for you by implementing Tungle. If you haven't heard of Tungle it is a great scheduling device that will incorporate your appointments into your calendar, send them to your blackberry, and send you an email reminder. Your real estate virtual assistant can get this set up for you, put a Tungle icon on your website so visitors can schedule directly with your calendar, or she can input your Continue Reading

Check it Twice
When striving for productivity in my day I used to use a schedule. That's extremely important for realtors. Without a schedule you are less likely to do the tasks that you need to do to find clients. And I still use a schedule today; however, it isn't what rules my VA world. My schedule consists of marketing, appointments, client tasks, and that's about it. I know that every morning when I wake I will check my inbox and analytics, do some marketing for my business, do follow-up and appointments, and my Continue Reading
Truth and Tips on Working With a Real Estate Virtual Assistant
I have read numerous posts on working with a virtual assistant lately. In reading some of these posts I notice that many don't realize the benefit of having a real estate virtual assistant, or REVA, as opposed to hiring any virtual assistant that crosses your path.

Only Wimps Work With Buyers
I read an article today by Walter Sanford in Realty Times. In the article Sanford has some great points, even if they do seem a bit harsh.

I believe that if you are going to work with buyers, they should be your sellers, past clients, or referrals. Here's why you should always strive to be on the listing side of the Continue Reading

As some of you may be aware I have been experimenting with different looks for my site. The reason for this is that finding what truly feels right can be a bit difficult at times. It's called Personal Branding. Personal Branding is what people will remember about you and your site. It's what sets you apart from the competition. What I discovered is that simpler really is better. I love color, so I experimented with a few different themes to see what fit me the best, and surprisingly the current theme is Continue Reading

Being Attentive Pays Dividends
I read an article on Realty Times that really caught my attention, because it is such a useful item for agents. In the article the author suggests that instead of running off to find your next listing you make sure to pay close attention to your sellers in the first 2 weeks. By doing what the author suggests you are setting yourself and your sellers up for success. The only thing that concerned me in this article is that if you are extremely attentive in the first 2 weeks and then the sellers only hear Continue Reading
