This is what a client told me this morning when talking to her about selling her property. I asked her how was the property marketed and she stated: "she listed it on the realtor website (mls) like everyone does."
Now this is a mistake that a lot of realtors make. Now, although you do have some homes that are so hot; they don't need a lot of marketing. However, there are other homes that need more exposure. This is an area that I know about all to well. There way many other ways to sell your property i.e. open house, social media, networking with other agents, reaching out to your buyers list, reaching out to your fellow agents buyers list, etc.
Here is another idea:
WHY NOT OFFER A REBATE TO YOUR CLIENTS????
Now this is something that most realtors will not do because of two reasons: 1. They cannot offer that through their company, 2. They do not want to reduce their commission.
Now of course everyone would like to get paid what they are worth. However on the other side of it, buyers can get money back so the seller has more of an advantage to go with a company that will attract more buyers.
Here is a video that tell you all about it:

INCREASE YOUR CREDIT SCORE TODAY
Now in order to do this, you must be aware of credit and how it affects you.
What is a credit score? It's pretty much a report card for adults that tell companies your ability to pay bills over a period of time i.e. Credit worthiness.
How can you get your credit score/report? You can get your credit score for free at creditkarma.com. You are able to get a credit report once a year for free as well. Go to annualcreditreport.com.
Whats the range in credit scores/Where do you range? There are a few ranges in credit scores:
500 and below (Very poor)- Most likely you will be denied credit or receive costly interest rates
501-600 (Poor)- You may qualify but, you will pay high interest rates
601-650 (Fair)- You can qualify with common interest rates
651-700 (Good)- You can get competitive interest rates
700 and above (Great)- You'll compete for the lowest interest rates on the market
There are 3 different credit companies, which score will companies go by? Companies will go by your middle score. Here is an example:
Transunion- 670
Equifax- 720
Experian- 645
Your middle credit score--670 (This is your credit score)
You should know your credit like you know your favorite song. Mines is Micheal Jackson- Lady of my life :)

Rebates On Your New Home (Legally)
Yes, you heard it right....
Some people think that you cannot get a rebate on your home; that's its illegal, and no agent will offer that to you. Well I'm here to tell you it's possible. I work with a brokerage and guess what's the name of the company........REBATE REALTY (catchy right lol). So many potential homeowners are afraid to move forward to purchase a home because they feel like they will become house poor once they spend their savings on buying a home.
Well you don't to. We offer a rebate as a simple "thank you" for using our service. That's just it. I purchased a home 5 years and I wish I would have had this back then. "That in itself is a no brainer. Couple the rebate with expert service, customer care, and extreme knowledge, and we can not only help the buyer find the right home at the right price, but get the buyer the most favorable interest rate." (Rebate Realty). Here is an example of getting a home with a rebate:
Purchase Price: $250,000
Agents Commission: 2.5% = $6250
Your Rebate: $1250
Couldn't you use $1250 to move in and buy that patio set or even put it back into your savings???? Of course you can.....
Here is a video that explains it all https://youtu.be/XFk0_LZBq7k
