The Four Levels of REALTORS®

Nick McLean a team lead, writer and coach in the USA published an interesting article recently in which he talked about the 4 levels of REALTORS®.

It made a lot of sense to me. Here is a summary:

In the real estate world, REALTORS® can be categorized into four levels based on their skills and networks:

Level 1: These REALTORS® primarily assist their friends and acquaintances, but they may not actively seek out homes for them. They mainly focus on arranging property showings.

Level 2: REALTORS® at this stage also work with friends, family, and referrals. They help clients find homes, often through online searches, and share listings with buyers.

Level 3: At this level, REALTORS® expand their client base by reaching out to potential clients who are looking for homes online, but don't have a REALTOR®. They bridge the gap between strangers and professional relationships and continue to help clients find suitable properties.

Level 4: The highest level of REALTORS® primarily serve people they don't know, thanks to multiple lead sources. They stand out for their strong work ethic and exceptional skills in finding off-market properties. Their networks play a crucial role in their success.

The two key takeaways for REALTORS® are:

Diversify Your Lead Sources: To succeed, it's essential to have multiple channels for potential clients. The more lead sources you have, the more opportunities you can explore.

Cultivate Your Network: Your network is a valuable asset in the real estate business. Building and maintaining professional relationships is crucial for success.

In essence, your success as a REALTOR® hinges on your network and the variety of lead sources you have. A strong network and diverse lead channels will open doors to more opportunities, satisfied clients, and a stellar reputation.
