If You were Selling your Home...

7 replies
What kind of search terms would you be typing into the big bad google?

I'm trying to help out a realtor who only wants sellers as clients.


Here are a few things I came up with...

How much is my home worth?

Why should I hire a realtor?

Home cash buyers


Warriors, what would search for?

As always, thanks for your help!

    There's no way to organize the list neatly, but you can figure it out... Chicago area, replace with places in your area.

          what about searches for something along the lines of

          moving companies in houstin
          Uhaul rental in New York

          or whatever, because people who are selling their homes need to move their stuff right?

          The Agent could workout a deal putting up an ad in a moving company website.

          The FSBO stuff metioned above might work, but I think most of those might not be the greatest leads because people who usually sell by owner, are doing so to avoid paying fees/commissions to Agents

          But if you can have a lead page that has information like, "the benefits of using an Agent over FSBO" or "The Top 10 reasons to use an Agent instead of selling your own home" basically little reports that would sell the person on using an Agent instead of selling the house themselves.

          Another thing is going to the court house and finding out about divorces. Alot of divorcees have to sell their houses. Not the greatest option though.

    Why don't you ask your friend to ask his clients what they searched for?

    See if he can give you list of his/her clients for you to call and ask that question.

    But if I was looking to sell my home and needed a real estate agent and I did not know one already:

    real estate agents city
    realtor city
    best real estate agent city
    real estate agent reviews city
    top real estate agents city
    affordable real estate agent city
    low commission real estate agent city
    cheap real estate agent city

    Just don't make things completed, just simply provide what you're really up to, something that makes sense so he makes money also.
