How To Delegate And Automate Real Estate Investing
Proper time management and co-ordinating real estate investing tasks efficiently are some of the biggest challenges real estate investors face
.You can find yourself in a very hectic life buying and selling houses as well as other tasks involved in your business.
When you lose this efficiency, you end up losing opportunities and good deals.
In this article we point out how to become more efficient and close more deals while spending less money, time and effort.
Several things need to be in place to run a successful real estate investing business:
1)Real estate investor website
When you start investing in real estate, a real estate investor website must be one of the first things you get. A good website must serve several important tasks:
i)It tells your story for you
ii)It must attract and capture leads for you
iii)It must actively follow up with the leads using in-built follow-up autoresponders to increase conversion
iv)It must pre-screen leads for you and pre-negotiate with them for you
v)It must have inbuilt tools to sell houses, and actively build your buyers lists to sell your houses faster as well as contact management tools to market to your mailing lists
vi)It must be equipped with squeeze pages and E-books for targeted marketing
vii)It must be equipped with automation features such as reminders and autoresponder
These are just a few important features that work to make your work easier and more efficient. A good real estate investor website is suggested at the end of this article.
2)Personal assistant
This is the person that helps you with most of the daily tasks that tie you down un-necessarily. If you have a lot of leads coming in, you quickly find yourself overwhelmed just by the marketing aspect of your business.
If you have to do it all yourself, you can easily find yourself frustrated.
A virtual assistant is very easy to find in a market full of job seekers. You can get as many as 100 applicants from Craigslist alone.
I get all my leads through my real estate investor website. About half of them will sign up directly on the website, and the other half prefer to call. Those that sign up on the website are fully pre-screened.
If they prefer to call, they must be motivated enough to leave a voice message.
My virtual assistant then calls them, pre-screens them and enters all this information on my website. I therefore receive these leads fully pre-screened and pre-negotiated, meaning it takes me less than 5 minutes to tell if to pursue the deal or not.
A virtual assistant can help in various other tasks that make your work more efficient.
3)Power team
You must build a team of professionals that deliver real estate services. You must have a real estate attorney or title company, inspector, contractors, real estate agents, etc that you need from time to time.
When you delegate parts of your business to most people, you increase efficiency and end up closing more deals
When you are buying and selling houses, repetitive daily tasks can bog you down leaving you with little time to close real estate deals. Find out how an automated real estate investor website can drastically cut down your work and increase efficiency so you close more deals using less time, money and effort.
