You're back on your schedule, you've got your goals written out, you know what you want to accomplish. And hopefully these thoughts today will help you do it. I had in the month of January a little program I did for about 150 people, and the topic that I talked about was, why did so many agents give up on the goals they have set before they actually start? Or why did we give up so quickly when the opportunities we have in real estate...

Building A Stronger Business: 10 Points with Mike Ferry – Part 3

Welcome back to Mike Ferry TV. You know, it's an interesting time for all of us because the Real Estate market is not like we experienced in 2021 and the first half of 2022. And of course, as you know, in the middle of 2022, interest rates started to change and they started an upward trend. They went from 3 to 6 to 7 to 8. And here we are now starting a new year with interest rates coming back down a little bit more in our favor to help us out as we build our career. But I want you to think about something I'm going to go through again, ten points, as I've done on my previous several Mike...

Welcome to another edition of Mike Ferry TV. My name is Tony Smith. Happy as always to step in for Mike occasionally on Mike Ferry TV. Okay, so I wrote down a question: How important today is the strength of your mindset as a business person?

Building A Stronger Business: 10 Points with Mike Ferry – Part 2

BUILDING A STRONGER BUSINESS: 10 POINTS WITH MIKE FERRY - PART 2 Welcome to Mike Ferry TV. Welcome to the month of December. 11 months down, one to go. It's never too late to list and sell Real Estate. And you know, people say all the time. And I've heard this for 49 years, that November, December are terrible months in Real Estate. Nobody buys or sells. But if you really look at the numbers from your local area, there probably is a decline 12%, 15%, even 18%, maybe 20% in transactions. But that means that if there's normally, for example, 500 transactions a year and there's 20% less in the month of December, there's still 400 transactions to be done...

Building A Stronger Business: 10 Points with Mike Ferry

10 Key Strategies for Real Estate Success Welcome. Good morning to Mike Ferry TV.

And I'm convinced it's not going away because sellers don't understand the value of their homes today. And too many agents, unfortunately, do not understand the value of homes today. And as a result, sellers aren't listing because they want the prices from 18 months ago. And you and I both know they can't get those prices today.   But second to that, we know that most agents work with buyers. I saw a report recently that said up to 90% of all the...
