The Simple Steps You Need to Know to Do This from Your Home!

Since now you know the steps that you need to take to close these deals whether you are taking ownership or just assigning your rights.

In each case you are dealing with a seller and having them sign an initial offer that gives you control of the home. This can be done over the phone and through fax and email.

So you don't have to leave your house for this part.

The part that takes legwork is the sign in the yard, the lockbox, and the signing of the agreements when you find your buyer.

This is where your rep gets involved.  Here are the issues that your rep will be handling. We have already covered the signs and access issues but we will quickly go over that again.

Sign In The Yard And Access To The Home

Remember that you want to get this taken care of immediately, right after you have an agreement from your seller. You want a sign in the yard and/or at the front of the neighborhood.

You can use directionals if you need to, but you want to get this done immediately. You want to use the neon yellow signs as I have said a thousand times but you can also have your rep use normal signs with handwriting on them when you are starting the relationship.

A good resource for signs is: banditsigns.com

Now you also need to get access to the home so that you can show it. If the seller already has access you can use their lockbox or have your rep get the keys and put a lockbox on the home.

You want your number to be on all the signs and obviously you want to know the password for the lockbox as well. You do not want to use the Realtors' lockboxes that require a Realtor's key to open, you want a regular lockbox that anybody with the password can open.

If you are doing deals long distance you can get a local voicemail and test that, but you will always get more business by answering the phone.
