Welcome to Real Estate Mastery - How To Create A Lifestyle That Does Not Require Your Presence In this podcast, I wanted to share with you a real-life example of a point I’ve referenced many times throughout this podcast, This morning, I had a phone call with a local franchise owner of a company called Caring Transitions. This company assists individuals who have owned their home for a long time and are ready to transition to a smaller house, apartment, or assisted living facility. As business owners, we are looking for the same types of customers - people who are looking for a more simple living arrangement. But What If They Could Offer More? People who work for these types of companies, or other fields in which they work with people who may want to sell a home, can greatly benefit from obtaining their real estate license. They do not need to act as agents - instead they can refer the person to any one of the agents they work with or a company such as Home Downsizing Solutions who can buy the house directly. In exchange, they will legally receive a referral fee for their efforts. Doing this alone can add tremendous value to leads that are already being generated. Adding Value By offering more services to leads and clients, you can bring more value into their lives. You will be able to better serve them by helping in more ways than one. When you offer more value to your clients, you will be able to generate more income from the leads that are already coming in. So without doing any more work, you will be able to be of greater service to your clients, thus increasing your overall value. Small Investment - Big Reward It can take some work to get your license and the process varies from state to state. Some states require more hours than others and different amounts of continuing education to keep your license active. However, the small investment of preparing to get your license will pay off as soon as you make your first referral. Whether you are a business owner or work for a company that deals with homeowners who may need to sell, getting your license can pay off in more ways than you might think! Today’s podcast was relatively short, but I wanted to share a real world experience which really cemented in the opportunities for individuals who had never considered getting licensed in the past. If you have questions or want to learn more about how getting your real estate license can benefit you, reach out to me any time.
