Many of us finish our real estate education, pass our exam, and think, “Well, now what?” Because, while we might know about homestead exemptions, the measurements of a government survey township, and how many square feet are in an acre, we don’t know how to start a real estate business.
The truth is, real estate agents are so much more than licensed professionals. We are business owners, responsible for all that goes into a successful business, from branding and marketing to sales and budgeting. We’re the CEO, COO, CFO, and CTO—oh, and we have to actually practice real estate.
The good news is The Close has you covered. We’ve pulled together all of our tools, resources, worksheets, and templates you need to build your real estate business into a step-by-step guide—and you can start right now!
Building a business takes tremendous energy and focus, which is why it’s important to first establish why you’re doing it. Maybe you love the thrill of the deal. Maybe you hope to help people and make their dreams come true. Maybe you want to develop your community. Your “why” needs to drive the large (and small) decisions of your business.
This can be summed up in your mission, vision statements, and values. Before you can tackle the really exciting things, like your branding, first establish what you stand for. Our resource below will walk you through the process and give you helpful examples of each element.
You know what Yogi Berra said about planning: If you don’t know where you’re going, you’ll end up someplace else. Bottom line: Planning is crucial to building your business.
Let’s start with a good old-fashioned business plan. It’s a classic because it works. We created our business plan template specifically for agents; it walks you through all of the decisions you’ll need to think through. Your business plan is your blueprint—it will help you reduce risk, identify threats and weaknesses early on, exploit opportunities, and fortify strengths.
Our business plan leads you through these seven steps:
By the end, you’ll have a crucial founding document that will support and inspire you in the hard times and keep you on track in the rocking good times.
If your business plan is already in place and you’re looking for ways to scale, here are some ideas to differentiate yourself in a crowded market. Carve out a specialty for your business with one from our list of 6 red-hot real estate niches .
You don’t have to take our word for it—Steve Forbes puts it clear as day: “Your brand is the single most important investment you can make in your business.” But it’s way more than just a logo. There are many different components to your brand, and we can help you with each step.
Start with our business launch kit, which is essentially a collegiate-level crash course in branding and marketing.
If you already have a pretty good foundation for your brand and want a tune-up, check out Real Estate Branding: How to Build Your Brand (+ Case Studies) . Here you’ll go through some thought and strategy exercises to put your branding through its paces and compare it to some successful case studies.
What are you going to call yourself? What is going to make you stand out in a crowded market and speak to your value proposition? If you already know because you’ve been tossing it around in your head for months or years, excellent! Skip this step .
If you’re not sure where to start (or worried you didn’t get it quite right yet), we’re here to help. Our Creative Real Estate Company Names article includes a free name generator. Click on over and take it for a spin.
Now that you have a name, it’s time to create some visuals to go with it. You need a logo that is bold and defines exactly who you are and what you’re all about. If you have the graphic design chops to design your own, go for it (VistaCreate and Canva can help)! If not, maybe leave it to the professionals. Check out Fiverr, where you can set your own budget (as low as $5) and hire a designer to create a custom logo for your business.
A strong slogan can convey a wealth of information in just a handful of words. Slogans can be pithy (Sell It Like Serhant), earnest (Our Passion Is People. What’s Yours?), or highly local (The Power of Deep Roots). But they must reinforce your value proposition.
Creating a company slogan is not easy—some entire advertising careers are built on one five-word phrase. But we’re here to help with our own real estate company slogan generator. Go ahead and give it a try!
Now that you know your company name, slogan, and have a stunningly visual logo, let’s tell the world who you are. Bios are some of the hardest things to write, even for professional wordsmiths. But consider this as an opportunity to establish why someone should trust you and how your experience, professionalism, and local ties make you the best choice to help sell or buy a home.
Don’t have the energy to write up your biography after all of this hard work? We’re going to do it for you. Try out our real estate bio generator !
Strong branding is all about attracting a customer base that shares your values. Here we will walk you through some of those commonly overlooked branding tools that can help you shine.

If you're a real estate agent planning on opening a real estate company, you need a business planning lesson. Every successful business operates off a template defining its operations and goals. Your real estate business plan is the founding document of your organization, and every new business owner must take the time to plan their venture.
If it's your first time writing a business plan, you probably have mixed feelings of excitement and frustration. It's a thrilling experience to bring all the elements of your new company into realization, but it's upsetting when you realize you don't know what you're doing.
Writing a business plan helps to show you the flaws in your business skillset. You might be a marketing genius, but you have no idea how to manage operations cash flow. Similarly, you could have excellent administration skills but know nothing about marketing.
Writing out your business plan shows you where you need assistance. You identify areas where you're weak and build a strong team around you to support the places you need help. In this post, we'll unpack a 10-step checklist for writing your first real estate business plan.
The first step in writing your real estate business plan is understanding your limitations and strengths as a real estate broker and a business owner. Do you know what you want to achieve with your business? Your real estate brokerage needs defined goals and targets to chase, or your organization has no purpose.
Every small business relies on a team. The team you select needs to complement your strengths and weaknesses. Use this stage of your plan to define the organizational roles of each team member. Identify their skillsets and what they bring to your company.
Real estate brokerages need to understand the type of business you want to run and the personality types of the agents you wish to attract to your company. As the firm's founding partner, you get to decide who you want to add to your team.
After identifying the team, and each member's roles, it's time to work on your mission statement and executive summary.
An executive summary defines the aspects of your business plan and what you want to achieve with your business outcomes. It also describes the culture of the firm and your values.
The mission statement clarifies the purpose of your business and what you're trying to achieve. It also mentions how you intend to get to those goals. We recommend writing out both your mission statement and executive summary and revisiting them after completing your business plan.
In the initial planning stage, wiring out your mission statement and executive summary helps you clear the cobwebs and focus on the task at hand. However, when revisiting your mission statement and executive summary at the end, you might find you left something out or want to make a change to clarify your business directives.
After you have an understanding of your business, it's time to work on your goals.
Establishing your business goals is the most crucial part of the planning process. Your real estate business plan needs clear and defined goals for growth, sales, finances, marketing, and every aspect of your business.
Each section, like finance, for example, drills down into sub-goals for each category. For instance, your financial goals should feature an overall sales target for the year. However, there should be sub-goals in each section for monthly sales targets, and you can break that down into a different sub-category with targets for individual agents.
The idea of goal setting is to set achievable business goals with measurable results. You'll have both short term and long-term goals attributed to each of your business functions. Here are some examples of measurable goals you can use in your planning process.
All these questions are vital to setting targets for your business. Without goals, you're like a car rolling down the hill with no engine. You'll hurtle down the hill at first, but when you reach the bottom, and the momentum dies out, you have no engine to pull you along. It's the same with your business planning and goal setting. If you don't have goals, you have no targets, and you'll run out of enthusiasm in a few months when the momentum in your company starts to fade.
The first stage of the planning process involves structuring your company and defining your business goals and purpose. The second step of building your real estate agent business plan consists of understanding your target market.
What market are you operating in with your business? Do you want to sell luxury homes? Or are you looking at specializing in selling single-family units or condos? Specialization is a popular strategy for real estate firms, giving you the chance to build a reputation in a specific market segment.
Take your time identifying your target market, and dig into the MLS listings to determine which areas offer you the best return. As a real estate agency, you'll have to specialize in a specific region and build your reputation in that area.
Look for the following metrics when examining potential markets.
All business owners need to understand the competitive landscape. The real estate industry has thousands of operators, and there are probably dozens of firms in your local area. Understanding the performance and structure of your competitors allows you to uncover the most successful firms.
When you identify the leaders, you can model what they're doing right and bring it into your real estate business plan. Check out your competitor's websites and review their social media accounts to gain insight into their marketing strategy and operations.
Who are the realtors that have the most industry clout in your area? Who are the leading firms, and what makes them stand out? Ask yourself these questions and unpack the top real estate firms' characteristics and components in your local area.
Real estate is a massive industry, and there are dozens of sub-industries within the real estate market. You need to understand your business model, specializing in a specific segment of the market. For instance, do you want to sell single-family homes to first-time homebuyers? Are you looking at providing commercial leases? Maybe you want to build a rental portfolio?
Spreading yourself thin across too many markets results in a lack of focus and direction. Startups will do better if they identify a profitable market and specialize in servicing that specific niche. Identify the areas with the biggest opportunities, and set up your services to cater to those areas.
Without accurately defined customer personas, you diminish your marketing efforts and prospecting outcomes. Understanding your customer profile and persona in the real estate market is essential to formulating your marketing strategy.
Your customer persona needs to describe demographic elements like average age, income, occupation, and other defying criteria that help you nail down your ideal customer. If you're a brokerage or realtor offering multiple services like sales and rentals, make sure you identify customer personas in each category.
You can further drill-down on your personas by identifying demographics in clients that buy luxury homes, single-family units, apartments, and condos.
Understanding your client persona gives you a better direction for your marketing strategy. For example, if you specialize in selling apartments to young professionals under 30, you're going to need to advertise through social media. Mediums like outdoor and print bring you less ROI on your advertising dollars.
Completing a SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) is an essential component of real estate business plan templates. In this analysis, you unpack everything you know about the strengths and weaknesses in yourself, your company structure, and your team.
Think of the SWOT analysis as a basic summary of everything you've done with your real estate business planning so far. Combine the know your learning during the exercise with what you know about your working habits and personality characteristics.
For instance, you might be a champ in closing deals, but your prospecting skills are weak. That's an example of identifying your limitations and performance parameters.
Maybe there is no real estate brokerage in your area that catering specifically to millennial first-time homebuyers? That's an example of a market opportunity your business can fill.
Perhaps your target market involves new construction, and industry news states that there's a big strike happening at the end of next month. That's an example of a threat facing your business. Revisit your SWOT analysis every quarter to see if you can identify any new developments to add to your business plan.
Now we get into the serious stuff with the development of your marketing strategy. Marketing is the single-most-important function of your business. The purpose of marketing is to drive new real estate leads to your business, allowing you to convert them into customers.
Your marketing strategy needs to focus on the things you learned when completing your customer persona. Where are you going to get the best bang for your marketing buck? Real estate marketing is a competitive space, and you need to make every dollar in your budget count.
Your marketing plan needs to include your online and offline strategy development. Your online strategy is the most important, and you'll need to build a website to promote your company and your listings. Social media marketing, referrals, brand building, sales funnels, and lead generation are essential online marketing strategies you need to succeed in your business.
Today, all your customers are online, and you need to market where your audience is hanging out. Most of them are on social media. Therefore, you'll need a social media marketing expert on your team to develop and direct your social strategy across all platforms.
CRM (Customer Relationship Management) software is another critical component of your business that integrates with your company's function. The CRM helps you manage clients, your sales funnels, and your marketing efforts through one dedicated platform.
You'll need to hire a marketing team to help you develop and implement your marketing strategy and CRM. Experts create a dedicated online marketing plan that includes all team members.
Your marketing plan is the foundation of your business plan. Investors will want to know your strategy and the results you expect to implement in your target market.

Your financial plan is crucial if you intend to seek investment for your company. Whether you're dealing with private angel investors or the bank, they want to see your financials and sales projections to complete due diligence on loans.
If they decide to loan your money, they need to know when they can expect you to return the money and the ROI you offer on the deal.
You'll need to include information like your commission pricing and average commissions, your sales forecasts for three years, and cash flow projections. When completing this section of your real estate business plan, you'll need to sit down with your accountant and get their advice on structuring your financials.
You'll need to account for your business expenses and the costs of setting up your company with a website, CRM, and digital marketing services. Remember to include memberships to marketing sites like Zillow Premier Agent and ProspectPLUS.
Your financial plan forms the backbone of your investor's interest in involvement with your real estate firm. The numbers need to make sense, so make sure you run them past your accountant.
Your business plan is a living document, and it changes with your business. Having a rigid plan won't work. The reality is that nothing in business works out 100% the way we plan. You'll need to have a flexible document you can update as your business grows.
During the first year of your operations, we recommend revisiting your business plan every quarter. As the business matures, you can push this exercise back to once every six months or once a year.

In real estate disputes, corporate counsel play a crucial role in mitigating risks and resolving conflicts. They must navigate complex legal and regulatory landscapes, identifying potential areas of conflict and developing proactive strategies to minimize disruption. Effective counsel review and advise on transactions, conduct thorough risk assessments, and manage multiple cases simultaneously. By staying updated on emerging trends and regulatory changes, they can protect the company's interests and minimize legal exposure. To facilitate efficient transaction completion and successful dispute resolution, corporate counsel must adopt a nuanced understanding of real estate law and its intricacies, and explore the strategies outlined below.
Table of Contents
Traversing the complex landscape of real estate transactions often involves resolving disputes that arise from conflicting interests, unclear contractual terms, and unforeseen circumstances. These disputes can stem from various sources, including ambiguities in property boundaries, which can lead to encroachment claims, easement disputes, and title defects. Additionally, regulatory hurdles, such as zoning ordinances and land-use restrictions, can create obstacles that impede the smooth execution of real estate transactions.
Corporate counsel must possess a deep understanding of these potential pitfalls to effectively advise clients on risk mitigation strategies and dispute resolution mechanisms. A thorough review of contractual agreements, title reports, and regulatory compliance is crucial to identifying potential areas of conflict. By doing so, counsel can proactively address potential disputes before they escalate, ensuring that transactions are completed efficiently and with minimal disruption. In addition, counsel must remain abreast of changing regulatory landscapes and emerging trends in real estate law to provide informed guidance to clients traversing the complexities of real estate transactions.
In addition to providing proactive dispute resolution strategies, corporate counsel in real estate play a multifaceted role that involves a range of responsibilities, from contract drafting and negotiation to due diligence and risk management. They are responsible for reviewing and advising on real estate transactions, including property acquisitions, developments, and financing. This includes conducting thorough risk assessments to identify potential liabilities and mitigating them through careful contract drafting and negotiation.
Effective case management is also a critical aspect of the corporate counsel's role. They must be able to manage multiple cases simultaneously, prioritizing tasks and allocating resources efficiently to facilitate timely and cost-effective resolution. This involves coordinating with internal stakeholders, external counsel, and other experts to gather evidence, develop legal strategies, and negotiate settlements.
Ultimately, the corporate counsel's goal is to protect the company's interests and minimize legal exposure. By providing expert legal guidance and proactive risk management, they play a crucial role in driving business success in the real estate sector.
A corporate counsel's arsenal of effective dispute resolution strategies includes alternative dispute resolution (ADR) mechanisms, such as mediation and arbitration, which offer a more efficient and cost-effective means of resolving real estate disputes compared to traditional litigation. These strategies are particularly useful in complex, cross-cultural, or high-stakes disputes where a nuanced understanding of the parties' interests and positions is vital.
When traversing complex lease disputes, corporate counsel must carefully examine the nuances of the lease agreement to identify potential ambiguity pitfalls that can lead to costly misinterpretations. Effective dispute resolution strategies are vital in resolving disputes efficiently, minimizing reputational damage and financial loss. In addition, rent adjustment issues often arise, necessitating a thorough understanding of the lease terms and applicable laws to secure fair and reasonable resolutions.
Through meticulous review and analysis, corporate counsel must identify and address potential ambiguities in lease agreements to mitigate the risk of costly disputes arising from unclear or contradictory terms. Lease drafting is a critical phase where ambiguity traps can be set, and it is vital to navigate these pitfalls to avoid future disputes.
Some common lease ambiguity pitfalls to watch out for include:
Effective dispute resolution strategies are crucial in traversing complex lease disputes, as they can substantially impact the outcome and bottom line of a real estate transaction. A well-structured dispute resolution strategy can help mitigate potential losses and minimize the risk of protracted litigation. In handling complex lease disputes, corporate counsel should consider implementing early mediation to facilitate open communication and negotiation between parties. This approach can help resolve disputes efficiently and cost-effectively, while preserving business relationships. Where mediation is not feasible, neutral arbitration can provide a fair and impartial forum for resolving disputes. By incorporating neutral arbitration into the dispute resolution strategy, parties can avoid the unpredictability of litigation and achieve a timely resolution. Additionally, corporate counsel should carefully draft dispute resolution clauses to guarantee they align with the client's business objectives and risk tolerance. By adopting a proactive and strategic approach to dispute resolution, corporate counsel can effectively traverse complex lease disputes and protect their clients' interests.
In the context of complex lease disputes, rent adjustment issues often emerge as a contentious point of negotiation, as parties seek to reconcile differing interpretations of lease provisions governing rent escalation, abatement, or adjustment. These disputes can be particularly challenging when they involve rent hikes, which can substantially impact a tenant's bottom line.
Some common issues that arise in rent adjustment disputes include:
To navigate these complex issues, corporate counsel must possess a deep understanding of the lease agreement and the relevant legal framework. By carefully analyzing the language of the lease and applicable case law, counsel can develop effective strategies for resolving rent adjustment disputes and minimizing the risk of costly and time-consuming litigation.
When managing construction project delays, it is vital for corporate counsel to identify the underlying causes of delay, as this informs the development of effective mitigation strategies. Delay damages can have significant financial implications, and a thorough understanding of the causes of delay is critical to minimizing these costs. By analyzing the root causes of delay, corporate counsel can advise clients on proactive measures to mitigate delay damages and optimize project outcomes.
Delays in construction projects often stem from factors inherent to the project itself, including inadequate planning, poor communication, and unrealistic timelines. These internal factors can lead to a ripple effect, causing subsequent delays and ultimately impacting the project's overall timeline and budget.
Some common causes of delay include:
These causes of delay can have significant consequences, including project cost overruns, lost revenue, and damaged relationships between project stakeholders. It is vital for corporate counsel to understand these causes of delay to effectively advise clients on strategies to mitigate and manage construction project delays.
Effective management of construction project delays requires a proactive and multi-faceted approach that addresses the underlying causes of delay, minimizes their impact, and mitigates resulting damages. One essential aspect of mitigating delay damages is to carefully draft contractual covenants that allocate risk and responsibility between parties. This includes negotiating damage caps, which limit the amount of damages that can be claimed for delay-related losses.
Owner-controlled risks (e.g. design changes) | Liquidated damages per day of delay | Arbitration clause with expedited process |
Contractor-controlled risks (e.g. labor shortages) | Limited to actual damages incurred | Mediation clause with expert determination |
Shared risks (e.g. force majeure events) | Capped at a percentage of total project value | Combination of arbitration and mediation |
In the context of property acquisitions, identifying and mitigating risk is crucial to verifying that deals are structured and negotiated in a manner that aligns with the company's overall business objectives and risk tolerance. This involves conducting thorough due diligence to uncover potential issues that could impact the deal's success. Corporate counsel plays a critical role in this process by identifying and evaluating potential risks, and developing strategies to mitigate them.
Some key areas of focus for corporate counsel in mitigating risk in property acquisitions include:
Collaborating with external experts, such as environmental consultants, architects, and engineers, is essential to augmenting corporate counsel's knowledge and expertise in property acquisitions, thereby enabling them to identify and mitigate potential risks more thoroughly. These experts provide valuable insights and independent analysis, which can have a profound impact on the outcome of a real estate transaction. By engaging external experts, corporate counsel can gain a deeper understanding of complex issues, such as environmental liabilities, structural integrity, and zoning regulations, and develop targeted strategies to address these concerns.
Expert testimony from these professionals can also be instrumental in resolving disputes and negotiations. Their objective, unbiased opinions can help to build a stronger case, whether in court or during settlement discussions. In addition, external experts can assist corporate counsel in identifying potential areas of liability and developing risk management strategies to mitigate these risks. By collaborating with external experts, corporate counsel can make more informed decisions, reduce uncertainty, and ultimately achieve better outcomes for their clients in real estate transactions.
What are the consequences of not having a real estate dispute resolution plan?.
"Failing to establish a real estate dispute resolution plan exposes parties to heightened Risk Exposure, leading to potential Financial Consequences, including prolonged litigation, reputational damage, and significant monetary losses, ultimately affecting business operations and bottom-line profitability."
While corporate counsel possess in-house expertise, handling real estate disputes independently necessitates a cost-benefit analysis, weighing the value of internal resources against the complexity and risk of litigation, to determine effective dispute resolution strategies.
When prioritizing disputes with multiple stakeholders, conduct a thorough stakeholder analysis to identify key players and their interests, then create a dispute map to visually organize complex relationships and allocate resources effectively.
In resolving real estate disputes, mediation plays a vital role by introducing neutral facilitators who foster constructive dialogue, enabling parties to explore creative solutions and reach mutually beneficial agreements, thereby expediting dispute resolution and minimizing litigation costs.
In real estate disputes, industry-specific regulations abound, including zoning laws governing land use and Environmental standards ensuring sustainable development, which can substantially impact dispute resolution and necessitate expert knowledge to navigate these complex legal frameworks.

GVRE will provide real estate services in the newly established Golden Valley Retirement Community, located to the Northwest of scenic Tucson, Arizona. GVRE is a full-service real estate, mortgage, and title company.
The retirement industry has been steadily growing over the past twenty years. The percentage of the U.S. population over the age of 55 is at an all time high of 21% and is growing at an average rate of 3% each year. In certain parts of the country like the American Southwest, which has a high concentration of retirement communities, the growth rate is about 8%. This percentage is also expected to grow as the first of the "baby boomer" generation begins to reach retirement age in the next decade. It is estimated by the U.S. Census Bureau that the retirement industry, that includes homes, medical facilities, specialty equipment, retirement entertainment services, etc., accounts for 4.8 billion dollars each year.
The real estate industry is highly fragmented, with a large number of potential rivals. Our most serious competitors are Bowditch Realty and RE/MAX. Bowditch is an established company that has been in operation for the past ten years, with a fine track record of quality service. It currently employees twelve agents and has long-term contracts with various home building companies. This company is slightly larger than GVRE in size and market capitalization.
RE/MAX is one of the largest and best known real estate firms in the country. It has hundreds of agents and very deep pockets that can be used to counter any sort of competitive move.
GVRE believes that the greatest threat at the moment is in new entrants to the market who will want to capitalize on this high growth industry. The most likely entrants will be new, small real estate companies with fewer than ten employees. However, the one major advantage GVRE has is its exclusive rights to act as the agent for Golden Valley Retirement Community. However, due to the high number of competitors and the overall low profitability of each firm, competition is quite intense.
The power of potential clients is very great in this industry because most clients are very concentrated in our geographical area. Furthermore, clients tend to "shop around" for the best package of services and cost.
The company expects to reach profitability in the first year and does not anticipate any serious cash flow problems. We conservatively believe that during the first three years, average profitability per month per segment will be adequate. We expect that about one sale per month will guarantee a break-even point.
Financing needed.
We will be getting $20,000:
Mrs Susan Egan $10,000
Mr. Daniel Egan $10,000
Problem worth solving, our solution.
Golden Valley Real Estate, LLC (GVRE) is a start-up company in the Tucson area. It is the mission of GVRE to provide real estate services in the newly established Golden Valley Retirement Community, located to the Northwest of scenic Tucson, Arizona. GVRE is a full-service real estate, mortgage, and title company.
The company’s main clients will be retirement age couples looking for a community that can offer significant services for their age group and income levels. Since Mrs. Egan is within this demographic group and knows and understands this market’s needs, she believes that she can appeal to such clients far more than most other competitors.
Market size & segments.
GVRE will be concentrating on only one market segment. This will be the retirement market consisting of those individuals and couples seeking to retire to the Tucson area. As a retiree, herself, Mrs. Egan deals with the very issues that her clients do, thus providing insight and opportunities to better assist her clients.
The retirement industry has been steadily growing over the past twenty years. The percentage of the U.S. population over the age of 55 is at an all time high of 21% and is growing at an average rate of 3% each year. It is estimated by the U.S. Census Bureau that the retirement industry, that includes homes, medical facilities, specialty equipment, retirement entertainment services, etc., accounts for 4.8 billion dollars each year.
The retirement home industry consists of thousands of small housing communities. These communities range from those owned by major name-brand firms to tens of thousands of small, one-location firms.
Our most serious competitors are Bowditch Realty and RE/MAX. These companies affect us most because of their higher capitalization or geographical proximity.
Market Segmentation
GVRE will be concentrating exclusively on the retirement market segment. This means the company will be focused on buying and selling real estate to those seeking to retire in the Tucson area. This market segment has special needs and is almost always looking to find homes in specially constructed communities that serve those special needs such as medical, dining, entertainment, shopping, and other such facilities. Being the dominant broker for the new Quadrant Homes retirement community of Golden Valley will allow GVRE to fulfill those needs.
The market analysis table and graph which follows shows the number of potential retirees that move into the Tucson area each year. We have also included a small number of other clients that may wish to use our services despite our strong market segment focus.

Competition and Buying Patterns
Competition The real estate industry is highly fragmented, with a large number of potential rivals. Our most serious competitors are Bowditch Realty and RE/MAX. Bowditch is an established company that has been in operation for the past ten years, with a fine track record of quality service. It currently employees twelve agents and has long-term contracts with various home building companies. This company is slightly larger than GVRE in size and market capitalization.
Buying patterns and needs Clients usually deal with real estate companies based on their reputation of professionalism and quality of services rendered in the past. This reputation is difficult to obtain by new firms unless its personnel brings it with them from previous companies, such as ours. Price and scope are also important reasons for acceptance, especially if the company is small.
GVRE offers comprehensive real estate, mortgage, and title services to our diverse clients. With Quadrant Homes, Inc. as our sponsor in the newly finished Golden Valley Retirement Community, we will have a premier position as the dominant seller of these new homes, condos, and retirement apartments. In addition, we will offer a full range of services to facilitate the purchasing and selling of real estate including the following:
GVRE’s keys to long-term survivability and profitability are as follows:
Marketing plan.
GVRE will be utilizing radio, newspaper, and phone directory advertising, and a small business referral group to generate sales and establish a presence in the Tucson area. In addition, Quadrant Homes, Inc. will be doing their own advertising, and all interested clients in the Golden Valley Retirement Community will be referred to GVRE.
GVRE’s management will be focusing on leveraging its extensive contacts with the various construction companies such as Quadrant Homes, Inc. to generate sales. Furthermore, we will be offering promotions of various free services such as initial appraisals and information packets to generate sales once our ad campaign starts.
Much of the company’s services will be outsourced. This includes title transfer, loan approval, appraising and market analysis services. Title transfer will be handled by TNT Legal Services, loan approval by GMC Credit Co. and appraising and market analysis by Templar Real Estate Services. Each of these companies encourages independent agents to use their services and all have a proven track record in terms of affordability and service. These companies have also been selected because they charge a flat monthly rate. Management includes this rate in the profit and loss statement under other expenses.
Our first priority is to help the seller set a realistic price on their property. But like most of us who have invested untold hours of time and energy into our property, it may be difficult to remain objective when it’s time to price it and put it up for resale. There’s a good reason for this. Usually, property owners have much more than dollars and cents tied up in a home – an individual commitment that makes it a highly valued personal statement. But value becomes a reflection of the buyer’s perspective as well when that property is put up for sale…and pride of ownership may not translate to market value.
When house hunting, the buyer will shop the market, compare available homes, and try to find the very best value. Consequently, when the seller is ready to list their home, they need to step back and sharpen their focus. Look at the home objectively and price it competitively. This is where a real estate broker such as Golden Valley Real Estate can help.
Listing property at 5% above current market value gives it a sales advantage that is ten times greater than if priced at 15-20% above. That’s a statistic that can’t be overlooked. An overpriced home will suffer from lack of exposure, and the longer it remains on the market the more difficult it will be to sell. And it will remain so, even after price reductions are taken to attract buyers.
That is why it is very important to determine an accurate and objective market value for your property. We’ll work with the buyers and sellers closely to achieve that and to maximize their opportunities to sell their home at the best possible price within acceptable time frames.
