Buyer Service Agreement Template--Florida Real Estate School
Buyer Service Agreement Template--
You could surprise a prospective buyer by
offering a non-exclusive Buyer Service Agreement.
Here are some examples of promises you could make that would build loyalty:
Here are some examples of promises you could make that would build loyalty:
I have access to Real Estate Listing Aggregators to keep me
abreast of any new listings –
not only from any MLS company – but also by
owner, by builder, and by developer. I watch daily
for the following:
- Houses that sold quickly but are back on the market because the buyer did not obtain financing
- PRICE REDUCTIONS (sometimes as high as $100,000)
- New Listings! The best homes at the right price sell within 30 days
I can forward details of
the property in a matter of seconds. In
addition to the standard MLS sites, I
subscribe to (list examples Trulia, Zillow, etc.)
New construction: We
have great builders if you wish to build a new home
 |
| Even if your buyer wants an impossible cloud-home, you get it done. |
Bargain hunters: I am
in a position to access bank-owned properties and short sales. I
can show you these, write and present your offer for you.
For Sale By Owner: I
can act as
your transaction broker.
I will spend 1-2 hours
with you, up front, just learning about your real
estate needs. We will determine:
- What style of homes you like
- What you would like in extras
- 12 major areas to watch when purchasing, to avoid a wrong decision
- What price range you are comfortable with
- Determine what a lender will qualify you for
- What down payment is comfortable for you
- What monthly payment would fit your budget
- What areas you will consider
- Answers to any questions about which types of finance are best for you
- The process of getting a mortgage
If you have a house to sell before
purchasing, I will do a FREE analysis
showing you what you have in equity
 |
| "Okay, guys, we can't get ahead of ourselves. All we did was put up a sign." |
I give weekly reports to
my buyers and sellers until the sale closes
I am a full-time agent with
professional support services
I care about earning and KEEPING you as a
client
I enjoy marketing homes and helping buyers find
a home they can be happy in. Should I have the opportunity to work with
you I will do my best to serve all your real estate needs.
Let your
prospective buyers know this information and you will be more suited to meet
their needs in no time.

Meeting and Qualifying the Buyer Pt. 1--Florida Real Estate School
Meeting and Qualifying the Buyer Part 1
Every sales
associate has
war stories about indecisive, demanding, disloyal, or financially irresponsible
buyers. These questions can
help you determine a buyer’s motivation upfront.
 |
| It's important find out whether buyers have completely unrealistic expectations. |
1. How
long have you been looking?
2. Are
you working with another sales associate or
broker? If yes, whom?
 |
| If the buyer is working with another agent, then you must destroy that agent. |
3. Do
you rent or own your current home?
4. What
is your monthly rent or mortgage payment?
5. Must
you sell a home before buying? If yes, what is the status?
6. Must
you complete a lease period before buying? If yes, how long is the lease?
 |
| "We're really going to miss our old place." |
7. Do
you have a budget for monthly payments? If yes, how much?
8.
What's your price range?
9. Has
a lender prequalified you for a loan? If yes, for how much?
Ask
these qualifying questions of your buyer and you will be more suited to meet
their needs in no time. Check back soon for Part 2!

Keys to Effective Advertising for Buyers--Florida Real Estate School
Keys
to Effective Advertising
for Buyers
Institutional Advertising –
Marketing – Image Advertising
Your goal with advertising to buyers is to
create a favorable image and differentiation. But be careful because most consumers choose an agent based
on a personal referral rather than a bus bench or billboard. Especially if that billboard looks like this:

Specific Advertising
With specific advertising, you are trying to
stimulate activity on a specific property. Therefore, once
a property is listed, it’s time to get to work finding a buyer.
The A.I.D.A. Approach
to Advertising
The A.I.D.A. approach to
advertising dates back many years, and is a useful guide for anyone who needs
to write a sales ad, especially
agents with little or no ad-writing experience.
Attention: Write a headline that describes the number one feature of the property to sell them on reading the ad
Attention: Write a headline that describes the number one feature of the property to sell them on reading the ad
- Headlines
- Word combinations
- Typefaces and layouts
- Color
Interest: Once you get their attention you need to cultivate interest
- Connect the opening line to the headline; get to the point of the headline immediately
- Use short sentences, and punchy words
- Don’t lead with numbers; the decision comes from the heart
- Don’t talk about special offers or discounts at this point
Desire: Create
excitement by appealing to the senses
- List a benefit for every feature
- Use clear and concise language
- Build mental images
- Establish the credibility of your claims
Action:
- Be convincing without being pushy
- Call to action -- Be clear about the step to take
- The TV pros offer a special price and place a time-limit on it to get them to act NOW!
Follow
these rules for effective advertising and you will be selling more homes in no
time.

Public Speaking Advice Pt. 3--Florida Real Estate School
Public Speaking Advice Pt. 3--Florida Real Estate School
- The best Florida real estate school
Welcome to part 3 in Florida real estate school Larson Educational Services’ 3-part series on successful public speaking. Public speaking is a necessary skill for every professional, but real estate professionals must especially be adept speakers because garnering trust and confidence will help you increase your sales.
In this part we are going to focus on leadership and how successful public speakers present themselves as a leader.
The Confidence Factor
According to The Book of Lists, the number seven fear of American adults is death. Fear of heights ranks fourth. Number one is the fear of public speaking.
- You need to exude confidence – not cockiness or arrogance
- The confidence should come as the result of your understanding of detailed, open and honest feedback
- Remember, it’s not about YOU – it’s about THEM
“An individual who attempts an intellectual or physical task almost always succeeds. In fact, my studies show that those who make the attempt to do something succeed almost ninety-five percent of the time.” -- Dr. Karen Horney, Psychologist
- Convert any outside pressure you feel to power. Think about doing great, not about problems.
- Your audience is depending on you to succeed.
- See every detail of the room, what you will wear, who will be there. Feel it. You will be great!
- Imagine success. Smile, sing, hum and make happy noises.
- Once you’ve prepared your presentation, it’s “Curtain going up!”
- It’s time for you to make a commitment
- There's no need to feel the pressure--you'll do great
- Have fun! And when you nextStand Up and SPEAK your presentation may be the BEST you’ve ever made!

New Photos from Pluto Prove that EVERYONE Loves LarsonEd
I heart emoticon Larson
Have you seen the new photos of Pluto from the New Horizons spacecraft?
There seems to be some sort of heart shape on the distant dwarf planet, along with some other very interesting graffiti.
Looks like we're loved all the way to the distant reaches of the solar system.
About Larson Educational Services:
Family-owned and operated Florida real estate school Larson Educational Services has had its doors open in Fort Myers since November 2008, but the beginnings of the business date back to the 1970's.
Rick Larson, Larson Educational Services co-founder and manager, opened a real estate education company in 1979 in St. Paul, Minnesota, called PROSOURCE Educational Services. The business grew to include real estate, mortgage, appraisal, insurance, securities, contractor, home inspection and computer education.
In 2001, Rick, along with his partner, Joe Coyne, sold the business to Kaplan Professional Schools, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Washington Post.
He and his instructors have assisted more than 500,000 professionals to pass their exams and achieve their career goals in real estate, real estate appraisal, residential construction, insurance and mortgage loan origination.
In 2007, two of Rick's five sons, David and Brad Larson, approached Rick and talked of starting up a family-owned education company. The only place they talked of operating the business was in Southwest Florida where they had spent countless winter breaks vacationing from school.
After finding a great location to build two classrooms in Royal Palm Square Shopping Center in Fort Myers in early 2008, Larson Educational Services offered its first Florida Real Estate Licensing class in November 2008, and has since added many new classes and has become very involved in all of the Southwest Florida communities. In March 2010, the Larson's expanded by adding an additional classroom location at Horseshoe Park of Commerce in Naples, just North of the Naples Municipal Airport, and in February 2011, the Larson's began offering courses in Sarasota at the SpringHill Suites, across the street from the Sarasota Bradenton International Airport.
