In the last section of my four-part series about building a listing-based business, I’ll illustrate how to understand the listing process.

Welcome to the fourth and final installment of my series about how to build a listing-based business. Today, I’ll talk about how to understand the listing process. In my decision-making process, I always default to logic (i.e., facts and data). Why? Aside from the obvious, when it comes to real estate transactions, sellers tend to make their decisions based on logic, while buyers tend to make theirs based on emotion. When dealing with sellers, opinions are only important when they’re based on facts.

Follow along in the video above to find out what else you need to know to understand the listing process. If you have any questions about this or any of the previous topics I’ve discussed in terms of building a listing-based business, don’t hesitate to reach out to me. I’d love to help you.

What Century 21 Agents Are Saying...

“I remember the day that Greg and I met in our interview and everything and you kind of tell me what we did here. Obviously I lived here my entire life so you heard a lot of people say well because you know they do a lot of that prospecting over there and I remember making the comment to them well. I don’t know what they’re doing but what they are doing is working. I mean they’re number one for a reason.”

- KJ Jordon

“I wanted to really find a good real estate company so I did my research went on google and started researching who doing transactions, what company came up the most often, who was rate the top one and came across to this company. First, I met and spoke with Greg partner for a little while on the first day. Shadowed a few agents and then just started from there.”

- Kevin Mills

“So we first started talking probably about eleven years ago and late 2006. Making a career change coming out of the corporate world and ended up going to a new agent seminar where you you know we’re doing a lot of those at the time. Just kind letting people know what you’re about, what the company’s about and you know it ended up we connected at one of those and the rest was kind of history.”

- Lori Sorensen

“I have been working for Greg for almost two years now, and he has completely changed my life simply by providing me with resources. Needless to say, I came from a different company where I made less than two deals per year. With Greg Harrelson, I was able to exceed almost 14 deals last year, and I’m on track to close about 20 deals this year. I currently have multiple deals pending, thanks to the CRM system he has in place, and the coaching calls that provide me with valuable information. I am where I am now because of Greg Harrelson, and I really appreciate his tutoring. Because of him, I am able to earn more money and take care of my family, so I am very grateful to him.”

I joined the Harrelson Group right after graduating high school with little knowledge about the field. However, the idea of selling properties intrigued me. With the help of Greg and the Harrelson Group, I’ve been able to achieve a lot in the past six months. I’ve taken 18 listings, and I currently have 10 active listings with a total market value of $2.5 million, of which two are pending. The success rate has been pretty good. Being able to sit four seats down from Greg during the morning listing presentations and all the training he provided has helped me tremendously in my first year as a Realtor. My goal this year is to do 40 deals, and I’m well on my way with five completed so far, so it’s been great.”
