“Hey Realtor friends—quick question: how do you typically run your buyer consultations? Do you use a PowerPoint presentation, a simple homebuyer guide, or something else? I’d love to hear what’s working best for you.”

Hey Edward! Great question! I used a binder in the beginning, but it seemed outdated and cumbersome, so I just kind of used an imaginary binder to guide me through the consultation a few times, and I really did not like that. So several years ago I switched to a PowerPoint presentation that I use. It seems so much more professional. I can run it on my iPad or laptop, I can skip slides here and there, stop to answer questions where I need to, ask my questions for the clients, etc. It just keeps the whole process more streamlined and professional. We get through everything we need to get through, all questions are answered, and the conversion rate is excellent. I have tweaked it a lot over the years and now use it for my home buyer seminars too. I started with a free template from Slidesgo and built out my presentation from there. I basically just walk them through the process, start to finish, from financing all the way through the process to the clear to close. I ask for feedback every time and it is always overwhelmingly positive. Building it from scratch is the hardest part, and then you can tweak it along the way based on feedback. I have one for sellers too! Hope this helps!

As a Realtor, what are some of the most effective networking activities or strategies you use to build your client base and attract new business?”

Community Involvement Attend or sponsor local events (school fundraisers, HOA meetings, cultural festivals). Volunteer with local charities or food banksbuild goodwill and organic connections. Host free workshops on home buying, credit repair, or real estate investing.

With a settlement agreed to in the NAR lawsuits and simply pending judge approval at this point, what is your brokerage doing to help agents in understanding this settlement and the potential changes that may come as a result?

We are handling everything "business as usual" & working as if things have gone into effect (my team). There are a lot of weekly events we are having as well as Zoom meetings. My team offers open group invitation to any agent. Feel free to contact me directly 713.992.1595. Im fortunate to work with a great team and company. My team feels that there is plenty to go around but helping is the most important part as well as discussing questions and issues with one another as it can be sometimes difficult and stressful to explain to friends and family. We have a meeting almost every Thursday & open meeting to vendors as well as other agents looking for over all growth. Hope that helps and potentially get the chance to see you at a meeting!!

Does a rental company have to disclose if a home has had mold?

Amy! Great question! Whether it has ever had mold, is debatable to have to disclose. However, it is always a good idea to over, disclose rather than under! Now, if there is an active mold infestation: The law says that landlords in Texas have a duty to remove conditions that materially affect the physical health or safety of an ordinary tenant if all of the following are true: 1. The condition was not caused by the tenant (renter), the tenants family, or the tenant's guests; and 2. The landlord has proper written notice of the condition; and 3. The tenant is not delinquent in rent at the time of giving the landlord notice to repair or remedy. Feel free to reach out to me anytime! Codysellsproperty@gmail.com 346-412-6603.

It seems that the new trend is to use this tool, and although it could be very helpful I worry it’ll all sound the same. Thoughts??

Amy! Great question, though something tells me you may already know my thoughts on the matter! I believe that there may even be some folks on this very platform making use of some AI tools hahahaha! AI generated content, bios, profiles, answers, responses, etc. will surely spread like wildfire, but it wont really truly catch the largest percentage of the masses until it can really capture a users personality and qwerks, though, I suspect we arent that far off from that notion. Its all fine and good until it becomes a little scary! But for me, at least for now, Ill mainly keep to my actual self and not utilize AI generated things of any kind!

CAN I POST A FUTURE HOME ON HAR ?

You can have it as coming soon for 3 weeks

Where can I find a 55+ community

Have you checked out University Green down in Clear Lake? I have several 55+ clients living in patio homes there now. THEY LOVE IT

Nothing is more frustrating than to have to go back to your clients with no answers for an upcoming showing from a listing agent or to have to tell your sellers you have no response from an agent that showed the property & does not provide any feedback. It should be mandatory if a showing is scheduled!!

Communication is key. Feedback is great but rare.

Where and how can I connect and find agents who would want to host open house for me?

DM me. If its not overpriced, I can pretty easily find you one.

The Rule of Three is a design concept that's so easy to use you almost can't go wrong! Simply line up three of the same plants, in the same pot, to create a visually pleasing series.

An easy way to add a nice aesthetic.
