As a new Real Estate Agent, how do I get real leads?

Irena Magzelci answered:
Depending on what you can afford but targeted mailers, open houses, sponsoring a community event. Teaming up with someone will cost you.
For your mailers target a specific neighborhood for instance 100-200 retired people or renters. Mail something every 3-4 months, possibly something with a magnet that will end up on the fridge (magnetdog.com). You can also print market stats or recent sales or listings and mail them. It does not always have to be glossy.
Offer something extra at the OH like a drawing for a gift certificate, light lunch, coffee and doughnuts….
Organize a Halloween or Christmas party with the local school and put your cards with the favors….
Cold calling is area specific. It works for some not for others.
Use the down time to educate yourself about all aspects of the business.
Good luck - Thu Jul 24 2008, 09:32

There are no foreclosure real estate agents per say. Any agent can handle the foreclosure.
The most agents that get the foreclosed listings are soliciting banks and have personal relationships with them.
As far as financing you need to be pre-approved by an legitimate financial institution before you can make any offers to any property. Your pre-approval will give you an idea of what you can afford, regardless of property being foreclosure or not. Also once you talk to the mortgage broker they can inform you about any programs that you might qualify for and any special offers. - Thu Jul 24 2008, 08:58

Banks will always look at your general financial situation. It is good to know the credit score and to obtain the free credit report before you attempt any major financial decision. You can start here https://www.annualcreditreport.com/cra/index.jsp.
Banks look at your mortgages as a form of good debt and the property you own increases your net worth.
You could try http://cgi.money.cnn.com/tools/networth/networth.html to get an idea of your net worth.
Of course higher net worth makes you a more desirable candidate for a mortgage, or any kind of borrowing.
If you are thinking of selling keep in mind capital gains tax. If you have lived in the property 2 out of past 5 years than you will be exempt up to a certain amount (up to 250K for married couples).
Are you thinking of buying a single or multi family property? - Thu Jul 24 2008, 08:37
