Real Estate Teamwork

Posted by goBE Realty Daybreak on Tuesday, September 17th, 2013 at 4:03am.

The entire model for UtahDave.com - Neighborhood Experts is built on teamwork! How does this work in real estate? Home buyers and home sellers get better service, quicker transactions, and greater satisfaction.

First of all real estate requires individuals to do a variety of tasks, many of which require conflicting skill sets. These tasks vary from sales and marketing, to contracts and market analysis. When your agent is 'in the zone' doing what they're good at, they get you results quickly and effectively. You know that working outside your talents forces you to work harder to accomplish fewer things. So what happens if your agent is forced to do something outside their zone?

An agent who is good at market analysis will not have a talent for summarizing the bottom line. These are conflicting skill sets. An agent who has a talent for jumping up at a moment's notice to help you see a home, will struggle sticking with a repetitive marketing system. An agent who is talented at taking large risks will have a hard time helping you reduce risk in your transaction. Agents who have a talent for understanding quality materials will struggle interacting digitally. A real estate agent trying to do all of these things will exhaust themselves doing those things they're not good at and will be less effective meeting your needs. They will cost you time, money, and may not be able to provide you the support you need.

This is why synergy works so well in real estate. A person good at gathering data will be able to analyze properties all day long, while their counterpart will be able to show homes for hours on end. Because they are both focusing on their talents, they will get further than they would have on their own.

It is the same with Neighborhoods. Agents are familiar with the areas they frequent. If they live in an area they are aware of property values, property taxes, and what buyers should be looking for. They also know when homes should be sold to maximize home owners' return on their investment. But what happens if you want to look in another neighborhood? They have to spend more time researching things a Neighborhood Expert would already know. Or they can find you the expert who already knows that area.

The network of Neighborhood Experts at UtahDave.com work as a team and focus on their specific area. By so doing they are more equipped to quickly you buy and sell. They also have an administrative team that thrives doing the paperwork, marketing, and other tasks that take them out of their talent. You know you're being taken care of because you'll talk with a team of experts focused on your transaction.

What's the result of this approach? Neighborhood Experts typically sell 400% more than the average agent. This expertise helps them stay current on the latest market trends for your deal. They are able to get their sellers more money for their home. Experts are able to save their buyers money on the purchase of their home. They also ensure that their buyers make the best possible purchase for their needs.

Recently this teamwork accomplished the impossible. If you have worked with short sales you know how difficult they can be. They take a lot of time, effort, and patience. With our team we had a short sale listed, under contract, negotiated 5 liens on the property, stopped the pending trustee sale, approved the sale, and closed/funded in only 23 days. What's even better? The agent was able to focus on helping their other buyers, while an expert contract negotiator got the deal done.
