New Realtor with questions regarding "Expired Listings"??
Has anyone successfully found clients this way? What verbage do you use? and how, via phone, handwritten letter, or visit??
Thanks
One of the Top Agents in my office does almost all her business from expired listings.. she is a like a hound dog! She knocks on Doors and doesn’t give up until she gets the listing! She is really smart amout it and very aggressive.. I personally have not tried this because I am not in the possesion to service that many listings while caring for my three kids. I work more with Buyers and I own my own Property Mangement Company.
It reallly can be a good source of income, the best thing about it is you know the sellers want to sell and if you go after the good listings and get them to price it well.. which many are more inclined to do after it has already expired once.. it might actually sell even in this market.
Note: Only go for sellable listings that are easy for you to service.. in your general area!
Best of Luck

I always called, but it is really tough in this market. Read the hot sheet each day and get aggressive.
