- 1:06I can't wait to talk to you about all the free coaching
- 1:08and everything that we offer within our organization
- 1:11but for now let's get into it
- 1:13so here's the deal agents hand over the keys
- 1:16maybe check in once or twice after moving day
- 1:19and then honestly it's kind of just a group approach
- 1:23there's not a lot of one on one
- 1:24there's not a lot of individual touches
- 1:26it's just kind of the bulk stuff that comes out
- 1:29the truth is when I implemented an annual review
- 1:32I turned you know
- 1:34first time home buyers into investors
- 1:37I turned first time home buyers into move up buyers
- 1:39I helped down sizers make a plan and help
- 1:43you know organize their entire financial future
- 1:46based around this asset
- 1:48which is the home and real estate
- 1:50so how did I do it well
- 1:52first and foremost
- 1:53we have to come with a value driven approach
- 1:55and here's why investors love this
- 1:58if you are somebody that you know
- 2:00has a financial advisor
- 2:02you're meeting with your financial advisor once a year
- 2:04no matter what your stock portfolio is
- 2:07well investors have
- 2:09you know sometimes
- 2:10you know one
- 2:11two 10
- 2:12100 1,000 units
- 2:14and if you are building this
- 2:16you know
- 2:17report and value driven approach where you're saying
- 2:21hey let's go over your entire portfolio
- 2:25whether that's one house or 1,000 units
- 2:28every single year
- 2:29to make sure that you are doing the right things
- 2:31to make sure that
- 2:32I can connect you with the right people
- 2:34and to create a vision moving forward
- 2:37so it feels a little more like a financial plan
- 2:40like we're so used to with our financial planners
- 2:42with our financial advisors
- 2:44they absolutely love this
- 2:46because it's not just here's a CMA
- 2:49here's a generic CMA
- 2:51that I made for everybody in my farm
- 2:52it's an actual individualized report and a conversation
- 2:57where you can create a pipeline full of
- 3:00referrals for your industry partners
- 3:03which only leads to their success
- 3:06and if they're having success with your referrals
- 3:09and you're sending them 10 times more than the average
- 3:12top producing agent
- 3:13because you're having these meetings
- 3:15year in and year out and whether it's
- 3:17you know something with financing or they say hey
- 3:20my my kids looking to purchase a house in another state
- 3:23and you make those connections with a realtor
- 3:26you can get a referral fee with your lending partner
- 3:28they will you know
- 3:29put a checkmark on the board for you
- 3:31as someone who sent them a referral
- 3:33and the more and more you do this
- 3:35the better it gets
- 3:36and it doesn't stop with just the lending
- 3:38and just the real estate side
- 3:40this is an Pandora's box of an opportunity
- 3:44for you to create referrals
- 3:46generate referrals
- 3:47and be in the know with your clients
- 3:49as you kind of
- 3:50prepare and dream with them in the future
- 3:53because this is where conversations start
- 3:56this is where the dream properties become reality
- 3:59because you can actually plan
- 4:02make a goal plan how to get there
- 4:04and absolutely help them execute
- 4:06and be a part of their story
- 4:07there's not a lot of that out there in our business
- 4:10and I was one of those people that was like okay
- 4:13we'll keep in touch we'll do our social media
- 4:16we'll do some mailers but the truth is
- 4:18if my goal was to help people build
- 4:20wealth through real estate
- 4:21I needed to provide this opportunity
- 4:24to actually help them build wealth through real estate
- 4:27and not just you know
- 4:28earn a commission and then
- 4:30you know kind of be omnipresent in their lives
- 4:33not providing a ton of you know
- 4:36individualize specific value for this asset
- 4:39that is absolutely the key to their success
- 4:43to get to their next step
- 4:44so how's this look first and foremost
- 4:46we definitely talk about the current market value
- 4:49this is not a push to you know
- 4:52get them the list I don't go into their home
- 4:54and actually assess what's going on
- 4:57I will take notes after we meet
- 4:59if they've done some improvements that maybe
- 5:01you know weren't there when they bought the house or
- 5:03you know since the last time we talked
- 5:05just so I can kind of keep my finger on the pulse
- 5:08on what's going on because ultimately
- 5:10if we're going into a listing appointment blind anyways
- 5:13we're going to have a range
- 5:15so I keep it about a 25 to 50,000 dollar range
- 5:18depending on you know
- 5:19the price point and all of that
- 5:21and I don't get too detailed
- 5:22I take a quick look at the MLS
- 5:24I look at what's going on in their neighborhood and
- 5:27you know ultimately I check some of the other platforms
- 5:30Homebot um
- 5:31my CRM lofty actually
- 5:33you know gives me a
- 5:34a little bit of a property
- 5:36value average and we can go from there
- 5:38so that's just a general point
- 5:41and it's it's very quick right
- 5:43because here's the deal
- 5:44when we're shotgunning out these
- 5:47you know CMA's that people do every year
- 5:50whatever we're leaving them on the doorstep
- 5:51or we're just sending them to the email
- 5:53the only thing that they really care about
- 5:55most people outside of a certain class
- 5:58will just scroll through it
- 6:01look at what their value is and move on
- 6:03the truth is they can find that on the internet
- 6:06you know a ballpark number all over the place
- 6:08and we all know where they can do that
- 6:09so I want to give them a little bit more
- 6:12so we start with that value
- 6:14and then I do some research
- 6:15I look at the public record and I say okay
- 6:18this is probably your prox approximate
- 6:21um you know pay off for your loan
- 6:23so then I can determine an equity value
- 6:26I also when we're scheduling this
- 6:28provide a calendly link that has a few questions
- 6:30one of which is
- 6:31do you have any other mortgages on the home
- 6:33and how much approximately do you owe in total
- 6:36so I know that so sometimes they give me that number
- 6:38sometimes I have to find it but either way
- 6:41it's it's fairly easy to obtain
- 6:43and figure out the difference
- 6:44between their market value
- 6:46and what they owe then it's on to the value
- 6:49it's just asking them questions
- 6:51about what's going on we talk about their loan
- 6:54we talk about their interest rate
- 6:55we talk about you know
- 6:57the need to refinance
- 6:59if they have refinanced and kind of how that looks
- 7:02right because sometimes
- 7:04if they bought in a higher interest rate
- 7:06and the interest rates you know
- 7:07you have a ballpark and they're a little bit lower
- 7:09you might want to say
- 7:10you might want to reach out to this lender
- 7:11I can connect you
- 7:12if you're interested in saving a little bit of money
- 7:14and refinancing I explain that to them
- 7:17and actually tell them what refinancing is
- 7:19and resetting the amortization schedule
- 7:22and all of that a lot of people don't know that uh
- 7:25if you couldn't imagine and then
- 7:28you know I go into do we have mortgage insurance
- 7:31is there another option
- 7:32is there a need to access some of that equity
- 7:35all of those things are important
- 7:37once we're through that piece
- 7:39and of course with investors
- 7:41this might look a little bit different
- 7:43because you actually you know
- 7:45investors sometimes aren't in the traditional mortgage
- 7:47and all of that I use this for my residential clients
- 7:50I also use it for the investors
- 7:51so it does have to tweak a little bit
- 7:53based on who you're talking to
- 7:55and that's fairly simple
- 7:57then I talk about insurance and I say okay
- 8:00you know have you had your insurance agent
- 8:02review your properties review your portfolios
- 8:04to make sure that you're
- 8:05insured correctly and for the proper amounts and
- 8:08and all of that I get more you know
- 8:10referrals to my insurance agents than a lot of people
- 8:14because most real estate agents
- 8:15don't even talk about this
- 8:17don't even have an insurance
- 8:18agent that's willing to look at people's policies
- 8:21and see if they're you know
- 8:23overpaying underpaying underinsured overinsured
- 8:26this is a very important piece
- 8:28because
- 8:28as we saw in the fires here in northern Colorado
- 8:31you know a few years back
- 8:33there was a lot of underinsured individuals
- 8:35because the
- 8:36appreciation was outpacing the insurance policy
- 8:39so we want to make sure that that's the key
- 8:41because we have to protect that asset no matter what
- 8:44because ultimately it is probably the most expensive
- 8:47asset that most of our clients have
- 8:49you know investors the same way right
- 8:52if you're looking for a big group you know uh
- 8:55policy maybe there's some savings
- 8:57maybe you can you know
- 8:59give your insurance person who you know
- 9:01will take care of your clients
- 9:02and will help stay on top of this with you
- 9:05as on your team
- 9:07an amazing referral you never know right
- 9:10and then we're moving on to okay
- 9:12is there anything you need done
- 9:13is there any you know
- 9:16contractors that I can connect you with
- 9:17what are you looking to do
- 9:19how long do you and in this time is when I ask
- 9:22how long do you expect to be in this home
- 9:24because that truly makes a huge difference
- 9:27on what improvements they might do to the property
- 9:29to the complex to their house
- 9:31whatever that is does it make sense right
- 9:34let's start looking forward
- 9:36what are we going to do
- 9:37because ultimately it doesn't make sense to put
- 9:40you know top of the line unique finishes
- 9:43solar panels all the things on a home
- 9:46if they don't plan on living there for a long time
- 9:48because the more and more unique and quirky and
- 9:53you know whatever you make this property
- 9:55the harder it is going to be to sell for top dollar
- 9:58and often times those unique quirky pieces are
- 10:02you know a huge
- 10:03you know attractant or detractant for some clients
- 10:06usually you don't want to shrink the buyer pool
- 10:08if you're looking to move
- 10:09in the next two to five years
- 10:11and so we have that conversation right
- 10:13and this may change I'm not holding them to it
- 10:16but you'd be surprised
- 10:18because I'm asking that question
- 10:20and I'm applying it to what we're going to do
- 10:22to the real estate property
- 10:24how many people will raise their hand and say
- 10:27this is absolutely you know
- 10:29this makes a lot of sense
- 10:31right as well if they're gonna hold on to it
- 10:33if you're helping them build a rental portfolio
- 10:36by house hacking or whatever it is
- 10:38you wanna mention hey
- 10:39let's not put the top of the top
- 10:41but you might still wanna put that granite
- 10:43you know the basic granite in there
- 10:44because that'll be really attractive
- 10:46to people that are renting and
- 10:48you know
- 10:49the more and more solid and bulletproof you can make
- 10:52a property if you're going to rent it
- 10:54the better you will be so planning this ahead
- 10:56talking about how we're doing this
- 10:58talking about how we're going to
- 11:00you know leverage this asset
- 11:02and that's the final thing I talk about
- 11:04is there anything that you would like to do
- 11:06one day with this equity are you just the one
- 11:09you know primary residence
- 11:10move up buyer that's just gonna roll it over
- 11:12roll it over roll it over okay
- 11:14well we can work on maximizing that are you looking to
- 11:18you know do some improvements
- 11:19but turn it into a rental
- 11:21and maybe pull some equity out to use it for
- 11:24you know your next property
- 11:26and continue to build rentals
- 11:27through your primary residence
- 11:28I talk about that a lot and so as you can see here
- 11:31we're just here starting conversation
- 11:34providing value and then at the end I just easily say
- 11:38there's anybody
- 11:39else that you think could benefit from this
- 11:40please connect us on a text message
- 11:42I will absolutely do this for free uh
- 11:44as long as they're important to you
- 11:46they're important to me
- 11:48and I want to offer this across the board
- 11:50a database builder as simple as that
- 11:53so here we are providing a ton of value to our clients
- 11:56creating the you know reason for them to call you
- 11:59the next time they make a move
- 12:01then
- 12:02we're driving a ton of value to our industry partners
- 12:05community partners and I don't just
- 12:07you know when we're talking about the contract
- 12:09it's not just about the home and the improvements
- 12:11if they need a hair stylist
- 12:13or my favorite restaurant or whatever
- 12:15we keep it light
- 12:16but I'm still driving business to all of these people
- 12:19to all of these small business owners
- 12:21that I will absolutely make sure that they know
- 12:24that I'm driving them business
- 12:25hey did Ashley and David come in
- 12:27you know for dinner
- 12:29this is the situation right
- 12:30or when you're there ask for Mark
- 12:32tell him I sent you you know
- 12:34whatever it is and you're making that point
- 12:36so if you are making a referral
- 12:39I try and do the Three Way text
- 12:42because every single time that I do a Three Way text
- 12:45it's off of my plate I made the connection
- 12:48the partner knows it and the client knows it
- 12:52and they take it from there
- 12:53but as opposed to me saying yeah
- 12:55call call Johnny over
- 12:57you know at current installations
- 12:59he'll take care of you where they may lose that number
- 13:02they may lose sight of that
- 13:03they may never do that
- 13:05Johnny has no idea I ever sent that
- 13:07or maybe it's three months down the road
- 13:09and they're like oh
- 13:10I got your number from someone
- 13:11I don't quite remember who and you don't get credit
- 13:15if I make that text message introduction
- 13:18I get credit no matter what
- 13:20that is how I'm sending more
- 13:22referrals to my industry partners
- 13:24and community partners
- 13:25than any other agent on the planet
- 13:28because I'm actively looking
- 13:30providing a resource making a connection
- 13:32being a connector and this will absolutely
- 13:35exponentially grow your business
- 13:37because the client
- 13:38now knows that
- 13:39you're the person with all the connections
- 13:41the industry partner now knows that
- 13:43you're giving them more referrals than anyone else
- 13:45which obviously bodes well for them
- 13:47when they come across people who want to buy or sell
- 13:49and that's the entire point of this
- 13:51so you're covering your bases
- 13:53and you're also having
- 13:55very organic conversations with your clients
- 13:59with your investors about what the next step is
- 14:02you're constantly trying to move it forward
- 14:04in a non pushy non salesy way
- 14:07you're just talking to them about their dreams
- 14:09about their goals and it goes a long way
- 14:11once we're done I give clear action steps
- 14:14I make the connections pretty much right away
- 14:16and then I provide them with a PDF
- 14:18report of what we talked about
- 14:20so they have it and we are off to the races

- 14:23incredible weapon that I have in my tool belt
