How many “First Time Home Buyer” seminars have you heard of?  Ok, I’ve heard of zillions of them.  It is a light-bulb idea for about half of the agents that come in to the business.  We all think that we can fill a room with buyers and give them some great information…  And some are able to do it quite effectively.

But, most of the time the agent gets a conference room somewhere, buys a bunch of food, and then sits around eating it.

But, one thing I have never heard of anyone doing is a First Time Home Seller Seminar.   I posted the idea up on Active Rain, and I was shocked a bit by how many people thought it was a great idea.  Ok, it wasn’t that they thought it was a great idea, but rather that they thought it might be a very popular idea.

So, I want to do it.  I will be looking to host a first time seller seminar (that won’t just be for first time sellers) in the next month or so.  We will talk about:

• Pre-listing inspections
• Appraisals and CMAs
• Marketing
• Pricing strategies
• Unrepresented sellers (FSBO)
• Successful contract negotiation
• Who should consider selling… and who shouldn’t
• I’m sure there will be more…

So, if you are interested, let me know.  Send me an email or give me a call.  Leave a comment.  Whatever you are comfortable with.

A couple of things of note:  We won’t trash people that sell without agents (FSBOs).  There won’t be a hard sell, the goal will be to give solid information.

I’m looking forward to hearing from some people…
