Have you ever wished you could work with a builder? 

Working with builders provides many unique opportunities to create sales. First you can sell builders new building lots and development opportunities. Next you have the ability to market each new construction home that is built (even based just on the plans). Last you gain the opportunity to convert all of those buyer calls and open house attendees into even more transactions. Here is the best part when you sell yourself once - builders provide a steady stream of new transactions. 

Watch this video to see five scripts that you can begin using today to start connecting with builders.

In a recent study conducted by Zillow Research it was found that 52% of homes now on the market are owned by First Time Home Sellers! As the millennial generation has matured and become a dominate force in the home buyer market they are now crossing over and becoming a dominate force in the home seller market. As the average millennial is aged 24-38 many are looking forward to moving up to their second home.

When you consider this generation’s preferred method of communication this presents an opportunity for savvy real estate professionals looking for an edge in a competitive market. How? Millennial's don’t call each other they text each other. The exciting thing about texting is that over 90% of texts are read and responded to within 5 minutes!

How can you apply this to real estate lead generation? Consider if you were targeting For Sale by Owner or Expired Listings. Instead of calling a homeowner and not getting through what if you cold texted the homeowner?
