How to Help Consumers Buy: Real Estate Professional Offers Advice
Realtors are not the only real estate insiders looking for an edge is attracting buyers - builders are also in need of assistance in the present market.
With that in mind, David Levin, a real estate consultant and founder of David Levin & Associates, a full-service consulting firm in Delray Beach, Florida., was retained by luxury residential builder Coscan Homes to present a series of seminars to area real estate professionals on “How to Help Customers Buy.”
Over 25 professionals enjoyed Levin’s presentations over lunch in October and November. A third seminar is planned for January. The seminars are open to real estate agents and mortgage brokers at no charge and are underwritten by Coscan.
“Everyone knows that it’s a challenging real estate market right now and that both new-home and existing sales are down,” said Levin. “Savvy builders and developers are addressing the situation head-on by providing their in-house brokers, as well as area brokers who might cooperate on a sale of their homes, with the skills necessary to better compete in a tough marketplace.”
Levin’s talks were well received by those who attended.
“It was a very educational and refreshing seminar,” said Alexis Leo, a new-home consultant with Coscan Homes. “It got me back to the basics and fundamentals of selling real estate and it made me realize how important it is to listen to the needs of the customers and make them happy. I’m looking forward to the next one.”
With sales of new and existing homes down in many markets around the nation, sellers are struggling for new ways to stimulate sales. Levin’s seminars are designed to help home mortgage brokers hone their skills in an effort to not only improve their sales ability, but to actually make buyers want to buy.
