The 5 Step Listing Process

Welcome and good morning to Mike Ferry TV. It is the week of September the 9th. I had a great conversation this past week with one of our good clients, who lists a lot of properties six, seven listings per month. And I said to him, "Do you ever get involved in multiple listing presentation conversations?" To which he said, "What do you mean?" I said, "Well, I've had agents tell me that when they're driving to a listing presentation, they're reviewing in their mind what they're going to say to the seller.

7 Ways to Stay Motivated During the Second Half of 2024

Welcome to Mike Ferry TV. It is the week of August 19th, halfway through a very important month because, as you've heard me say in the past, it is not uncommon at all for Real Estate people to do little or no business in the month of August because there are vacations, getting the children ready for school, because school starts in mid-August in most parts of North America, you know, getting your mindset back together, getting rid of the hot weather, looking forward to a great fall. But one thing we do know, those that are working always have a great second half of the year. And I saw an article which I thought as soon as I saw...
