WARNING: This book is not about politics nor does it promote being a jerk; however, victims, wimpy-minded, and lazy people will hate it. This real estate handbook is not like the others: it has flow charts and over 100 common (and not-so-common) real estate agent tasks presented as simple, step-by-step recipes. And it has pictures. And it's funny (or at least grin-worthy). In other words, it's comprehensive and not boring. The best part is: as a collection of brief articles, this book is easy to digest in small bites; however, because real estate tasks are so interrelated, each article is heavily cross-referenced. This way, the reader may delve deep into any topic (or train of thought) by either turning the page or by following a cross-reference. Such layout makes for easy navigation now and in the future, because you'll wanna return to certain articles over and over again. So, you can read it from cover-to-cover, or you can choose your own real estate adventure, reading only the bits that fit your current curiosity. You will learn: How-to choose a broker who fits your needs; How-to maximize your prospecting efforts (including 105 ways to meet prospects); How-to pre-qualify buyers and sellers (so you don't waste time on duds); How-to discover what your buyers really want; How-to show property and help your buyers decide; How-to conduct a slam-dunk listing presentation; How-to attract buyers to your listings; How-to draft offers/create contracts/negotiate (including low-ball and multiple offer situations); How-to get your clients to the closing table; How-to avoid commission breath and ensure you get paid; How-to study the marketplace through statistical analysis; How-to valuate real property and pick The Right Price; How-to business plan/track agent stats/identify and alleviate bottlenecks; How-to create a niche for more income; How-to create and practice scripts; How-to create and refine systems; How-to banish victimhood and take charge of your real estate sales business.
