While there are vast differences between what’s happening in the various high-end markets across the country, there are things that we can do to boost our sales regardless of our market. What is the state of high-end markets at the moment? How can staging and recommendations impact our probability of selling? How can we expand our pool of potential buyers? In this episode, Michael LaFido discusses what agents can do to maintain and grow their sales rate in a shifting high-end market.

7 out of 10 times there are things an agent could do that are within their control to position a home differently and more effectively. -Michael LaFido

Three Things We Learned

Dealing with open house objections

We have to cover one main area of objection when it comes to high-end open houses, and that is security. By bringing on more people to host the open house with us, asking for viewers’ identification details and advising the seller to put away valuables, we can better ensure a low-risk open house.

Growing our pool of potential buyers

By encouraging our sellers to let their personal networks know that they’re selling, and by sending the same message to their neighbors, we can increase the amount of potential buyers for the property. We can motivate sellers and neighbors by explaining how this will give them some control over who their buyer and new neighbor is.

Articulating recommendations without offending

Being able to articulate our staging advice to sellers without offending them is very important. Instead of saying it in a way that comes across as our personal opinion, we should explain why it makes sense from a market research perspective and how it will help their house sell.

 

In order to keep our sales rates steady and growing in a shifting high-end market, we need to be able to advise sellers on how to best position their property so that it gets the most views, clicks, and eyeball traffic. When advising, we should be careful of how we articulate our recommendations so as not to offend, and so that they understand what changes will help their property sell. We can reach more potential buyers by using social media effectively and tapping into sellers’ personal networks. In this way, we can compensate for some of the more prominent shifts in our market.
