Jump In! Investors Need Your Help to Buy U.S. Real Estate
Someone’s noticed U.S. real estate is a great buy – investors! And many of them are coming from outside the U.S. to purchase our homes and condos. In fact, Inman News has posted back-to-back articles about international buyers.
Article #1 on March 28 noted a new Inman report, “10 Hot Spots for Global Homebuyers,” and cited Canadian buyers as one of the top 3 countries of origin for foreign buyers. Erica Muller, recently profiled as a FrogPond.com Rainmaker/Agent, said nearly all of her buyers are from Canada, Great Britain, Brazil and Australia.
Article #2 by Inman cited a report from real estate search company Trulia, listing the 15 nations sourcing most of its international searches, with Canada again topping the list.
So we’ve established there is business for real estate professionals who want to work with investors, especially those from outside the U.S. But how do you tap that business?
Our friend Greg Rand from OwnAmerica and I are teaming up for a free Webinar on Wed, April 4, noon Eastern Time, about this very subject – and YOU are invited!
We’ve profiled Greg, talking about his monthly Fox Business segments where he shares news about where the great real estate investment opportunities are. Greg is the real deal, and we are fortunate to be able to share his expertise to get new business. On April 4, Greg will teach you how to “Dominate the Residential Investor Market” with cutting-edge tools-of-the-trade
Do you already have too much business? If your answer is “no,” then you must say “yes” to this engaging and informative Webinar. Take one hour and learn how to tap this market, already credited for 23% of all U.S. home sales.

“Gettin’ Off the Highway and Into Their Driveway(TM)” Brings Happiness
When you’re view is from 30,000 feet high or 30,000 feet down the way, you might be missing the point. The point is Micro Local Marketing. It’s what the consumer wants. It’s why the consumer removed the gatekeeper; why the consumer is so accessible.
Micro Local Marketing is “What’s in it for me” on steroids. Consumers are smarter than ever, but want someone who can interpret what the data means to them. Micro Local information is the what and why in the consumers community, neighborhood, and street.
Give them the housing numbers, the information on new shopping centers, little community theater auditions, where commencement’s being held, what new road is being expanded, new corporation headquartering in their community, remind them of flood insurance and routes out of town for immediate evacuation, and all things relevant…give them the knowledge to select you as their trusted adviser, housing consultant, REALTOR.
Gettin’ Off the Highway and Into Their Driveway(tm)” engages the consumer, builds relationships and results in happiness.
