Meeting and Qualifying the Buyer Pt. 2–Florida Real Estate School

Meeting and Qualifying the Buyer Part 2

Florida Real Estate School

Last time, we discussed the first 9 questions you can use to help determine a buyer’s motivation. Every sales associate has war stories about indecisive, demanding, disloyal, or financially irresponsible buyers. These questions can help you determine a buyer’s motivation upfront. This week we will be going over the final 9 questions.

  1. How much cash do you want to use for the purchase?
  1. Do you have special requirements in a property? If yes, please list.
  1. If you have school-age children, are you willing to move during the school year?
  1. Who is your employer?
  1. Will anyone else help you make the buying decision? If yes, who?

“All signs point to yes you should definitely refrain from buying that house.”

  1. If we find the right property, are you prepared to make a decision now?
  1. What times are best to contact you?
  1. What times are best to view properties?
  1. How do you like to communicate?(Phone oremail)

Keys to Effective Advertising for Buyers–Florida Real Estate School

Keys to Effective Advertising for Buyers

Institutional Advertising – Marketing – Image Advertising

Your goal with advertising to buyers is to create a favorable image and differentiation. But be careful because most consumers choose an agent based on a personal referral rather than a bus bench or billboard. Especially if that billboard looks like this:

Specific Advertising

With specific advertising, you are trying to stimulate activity on a specific property. Therefore, once a property is listed, it’s time to get to work finding a buyer.

The A.I.D.A. Approach to Advertising 

The A.I.D.A. approach to advertising dates back many years, and is a useful guide for anyone who needs to write a sales ad, especially agents with little or no ad-writing experience.

aida florida real estate school


Attention: Write a headline that describes the number one feature of the property to sell them on reading the ad

    • Headlines
    • Word combinations
    • Typefaces and layouts
    • Color

Interest: Once you get their attention you need to cultivate interest

    • Connect the opening line to the headline; get to the point of the headline immediately
    • Use short sentences, and punchy words
    • Don’t lead with numbers; the decision comes from the heart
    • Don’t talk about special offers or discounts at this point

Desire: Create excitement by appealing to the senses

    • List a benefit for every feature
    • Use clear and concise language
    • Build mental images
    • Establish the credibility of your claims

Action: Convince them to make a purchase

    • Be convincing without being pushy
    • Call to action — Be clear about the step to take
    • The TV pros offer a special price and place a time-limit on it to get them to act NOW!

Follow these rules for effective advertising and you will be selling more homes in no time.
