In a competitive real estate market, getting your buyers into a contract quickly can be challenging. But with the right strategy, you can cut through the noise and make it happen! Here are six creative ways to help your buyer clients stand out and secure a contract this week.
1. Create a Custom ‘WANTED Flyer’ for Each Buyer Client
Design a unique, eye-catching ‘WANTED Flyer’ for every buyer you’re working with. These flyers should highlight exactly what your buyer is looking for in a home, including their preferred neighborhood, price range, and key features. Be sure to include a bold call-to-action that encourages sellers or potential leads to contact you if they have a matching property.
By personalizing the flyer for each client, you create a sense of urgency and specificity, making it easier for sellers to match your buyers’ needs.
2. Use Your ‘WANTED Flyer’ to Door-Knock Their Desired Neighborhoods
Once you’ve created your WANTED Flyer, get out into the field! Door-knocking may feel like an old-school tactic, but it’s incredibly effective in today’s market. Visit homes in your buyers’ desired neighborhoods and share the flyer with homeowners.
Even if the homeowner isn’t interested in selling, they might know someone who is or be willing to share your flyer within their network. This personal touch adds an extra layer of effort that buyers appreciate, and it can yield immediate results.
3. Post Your ‘WANTED Flyer’ on Social Media
Social media is a powerful tool for real estate agents, especially when it comes to finding off-market properties. Post your WANTED Flyers on your business and personal social media profiles with a clear call to action. Ask your followers to message you if they know of a home that might be a fit for your buyer.
This type of post not only engages your audience but also gets more eyes on your clients’ needs, increasing the likelihood of uncovering hidden opportunities. Be sure to include relevant hashtags and tag local community groups to maximize visibility.
4. Make a Short Video Using the ‘WANTED’ Theme for Each Buyer
Take your WANTED Flyer concept a step further by creating a short, engaging video for each buyer. In the video, introduce your client, talk about what they’re looking for, and reiterate the urgency of finding the right home.
Use the same ‘WANTED’ theme to grab attention and make the video fun and engaging. Videos tend to perform well on platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and even YouTube. This method also helps potential sellers put a face to your buyers and see the personal side of the transaction.
5. Post Your ‘WANTED Flyer’ on Nextdoor.com/Neighborhood Name
Nextdoor is a hyper-local social media platform that connects people in specific neighborhoods. By posting your WANTED Flyers here, you can reach local homeowners who may not be actively listing their homes but are considering selling.
Be sure to post in the correct neighborhood group and mention that you’re looking on behalf of a specific buyer. Homeowners on Nextdoor tend to appreciate helping out their neighbors, so it’s an excellent place to start conversations and possibly find off-market listings.
6. Get Serious About Your Buyer Presentation
Lastly, if you haven’t already, now is the time to sharpen your buyer presentation. A strong, well-organized buyer presentation not only sets clear expectations but also helps establish your professionalism and commitment to finding the perfect home for your clients.
Your buyer presentation should outline the process, timelines, and strategies (like the WANTED Flyers) you’re using to get them into a home quickly. The more polished and strategic your presentation, the more confident your buyers will feel in the process.
By using these six creative strategies, you’ll help your buyers stand out in the crowded market and increase their chances of getting into a contract this week. Combine digital efforts with personal touches, and your clients will be well on their way to finding their dream homes!
