      Do you ever wonder why they don’t call you a “lead generator” instead of a real estate agent? After all, generating leads consumes a huge portion of the typical agent’s work week.

      If you’re new to the business, getting leads is a make-or-break proposition. Either you generate solid leads, or you go out of business.

      Yes, this is not the best time to hunt down real estate consumers. The media is doing a good job of scaring them away from the market. But there are buyers out there.

      We asked several agents we know what they’re doing right now that is inexpensive, and they graciously allowed us to share their answers.

      1. Tweet 

      Although we don’t recommend Twitter for marketing your real estate business, we thought diehard Tweet fans might enjoy this tip.

      Anytime you have a free couple of minutes, hop on Twitter and type “moving to [name of the city]” in the search box. You can use variations of the search term as well. Try these:

      • Buy a house in [name of city or name of the neighborhood]
      • Best neighborhood in [name of city] to buy a house
      • Real estate agent in [name of market]

      These were off the top of our heads, and you’ll no doubt come up with more.

      This tip, by the way, comes from Bernice Ross at Inman.com.

      2. Content works if done right

      According to statistics at Placester.com, more than three-quarters of homebuyers who use the internet when house hunting say that they prefer reading articles over being blasted by ads or self-promotion when visiting an agent’s website.

      “Any old message or clever tagline isn’t going to pique their interest – what they crave now is useful, interesting content,” cautions Seth Price at Placester.com.

      Content marketing won’t give instant results, but when it starts working, you’ll wonder why you didn’t start long before.

      By the way, a brilliant way to increase your site’s visitors is by posting and sharing content about local businesses on social media. Be sure to send a copy to the business so they can share the free advertising with their readers.

      3. Use others’ listings

      No listings of your own? Ask your colleagues if you can share their listings on your blog and social media. Facebook is an especially good platform for sharing listings, as long as you don’t do it too often.

      Stick to listings taken within your brokerage, and talk it over with the listing agent first.

      Bonus tip: Spread the truth about what’s happening in the market. Nobody knows better than you that the market isn’t as bad as the media makes it out to be. People are looking at homes, this is an excellent sign that real estate is alive and kickin’!

          Although the attribution is under debate, Albert Einstein famously defined insanity as “… doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” 

          Regardless of who truly gave that one to the world, it sure is true, isn’t it?

          As we head into a fresh, new year, it’s time to do a lookback at 2023. What worked? What didn’t? What did you hope to accomplish that you didn’t? Where are the gaps in your marketing plan that need to be filled?

          Is this the year you’ll hire help? 

          Today we throw out some ideas. No, nothing new, but perhaps new to your business in 2024.

          Understand your audience

          “Census data shows that 4 in 10 Americans are finding it difficult to cover their expenses,” according to Emma Newbery at Fool.com.

          “On average, Americans need an additional $11,434 to afford the same standard of living in October 2023 compared with January 2021 …,” suggests Aimee Picchi at CBSNews.com, citing a study by the U.S. Senate Joint Economic Committee.

          Sadly, the media doesn’t seem to understand the plight of average Americans in this economy. They deliver the news as if we’re doing peachy, making money hand over fist without a care in the world.

          Naturally, those struggling the most are not likely in the market to buy a house right now. But, rest assured that a chunk of the higher earners in that 40% of Americans just may be.

          Are you online enough?

          Strengthen your online presence via social media and a robust offering of advice and information on your website.

          The secret? Ensure that what you post is irresistibly sharable.

          These topics don’t all have to be real-estate related. In fact, those that are shared the most tend to be community-related, such as those about local coffee shops, restaurants, dog groomers, etc.

          Yes, you’ll want to throw in educational real estate pieces to show your expertise and educate your followers. But social media is a place for them to get to know all aspects of who you are.

          Get a Niche

          Have you considered specializing in a real estate niche? Focusing on one group of people, type of property or neighborhood is an amazing way to stand out from the crowd of other agents in your area.

          Popular and lucrative niches include:

          • People – veterans, ethnic, foreign buyers, generational (for instance, baby boomers, or Gen X), new-home buyers.
          • Geographic – as mentioned earlier, this might be specializing in a particular neighborhood, condo community, or beach-front properties for instance.
          • Property type: luxury, starter homes, condos, multi-generational homes, new construction, waterfront, golf course.

          Use your content, both website and social media, to show them you’re not blind to their plight. Keep them abreast of the local market, but have some fun too. Any positive news you can provide will have them coming back for more.

              “Hello Mary, this is Edith at the IRS and I notice that you missed claiming several deductions on your tax return,” is a phone call nobody ever has or ever will receive.

              Yet, despite all the terms and conditions placed on them, about 39.6 million Americans claim more than $1.1 trillion in tax deductions on itemized returns. 

              Sounds like a ton-o’-money, doesn’t it?

              Consider this: 2.2 million tax filers who didn’t itemize, but took the standard deduction instead, gave the government nearly $1 billion that they didn’t have to.

              Sure, itemizing is a hassle but that’s why we hire accountants, right? Your only job is to keep track of all of your expenses. 

              And, as a real estate professional, you have a lot of expenses that can be transformed into deductions.

              Document everything

              Guesstimates of your mileage, how much gas you used and other auto-related expenses will get you about as far as a Zestimate gets a homeowner looking for home value. 

              Relying on them may cause you to leave money on the table.

              Then, the IRS requires accurate documentation, should you be audited. 

              “The devil is in the detail,” warns Bill Zumwalt, former tax coach to real estate agents. “If you have documentation, it will be your friend.”

              OK, so let’s jump into some of the more common automobile deductions that apply to the real estate professional and some tips on how to document them.

              The Empty Nest Series is shown above, Click Here.

              Bought a car in 2023?

              Yup, it’s a fact: being a buyer’s agent means practically living in your car. 

              Without getting too technical, if you’re thinking of getting a new tin can to be locked up in all day, and it happens to be a “heavy” SUV, you may want to purchase or lease a 2024 model.

              A heavy SUV, by the way, would be something like a Tahoe or Land Cruiser— any vehicle with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of more than 6,000 pounds. You can find a list of qualified vehicles at mileiq.com.

              The depreciation deduction falls under Section 179 of the IRS code. “Section 179 is a provision of the US tax code that allows businesses to deduct (i.e., write off) the purchase price of qualifying equipment, vehicles, and software in the year it was purchased, as opposed to depreciating it a little at a time over several years,” according to the experts at Crest Capital.

              You can bone up on the details at IRS.gov.

              Deductible auto expenses

              Keep careful records of your mileage this year because you’ll get more money per mile than you did last year: 65.5 cents per mile driven for business use.

              And, keep in mind that mileage may just be your biggest tax deduction, according to CPAs at Rick C. Reed and Company in Texas.

              Don’t neglect the following expenses, though:

              • Car washes
              • Repairs
              • Gas (including tax on gas)
              • Tires
              • Parking
              • Tolls
              • Depreciation
              • Maintenance costs
              • Vehicle registration fees
              • Lease payments
              • Insurance

                  Today, we’re offering two tax tips to help take the sting out of 2023.

                  Home office deductions

                  And, here you thought the biggest perk to working from home was not having to deal with office politics.

                  Having a home office offers a slew of tax deductions and, according to Crumbaugh, many agents miss a lot of them.

                  And, even tenants can take the deduction. So, part of what you pay every month in rent on your home would be deductible.

                  Some of the more commonly overlooked expenses, a percentage of which can be deducted, include:

                  • Homeowners or renter’s insurance
                  • Mortgage interest
                  • Property taxes
                  • Utilities
                  • Repairs and maintenance (of the office area)
                  • Depreciation
                  • Casualty losses

                  As you can imagine, the IRS has a number of stringent requirements to meet before these are considered allowable expenses and they all have to do with whether or not your home office is really an office.

                  Oh, those silly skeptics at the IRS.

                  Basically, your home office must be your primary place of business and you must use the space regularly and exclusively.

                  Read the fine print at IRS.gov.

                  Assigning work to your kids

                  Dusting, wiping the mud off signs and lockboxes, and even doing online research are all jobs that your kids can do for you. In fact, if there’s something you normally hire someone else to do, consider hiring your child or grandchild instead.

                  “The IRS has accepted that your child may be an employee of your business,” says author and attorney, Stephan Fishman at nolo.com.

                  We aren’t talking about child labor here, but what we’re talking about is well within the limits of the Fair Labor Standards Act. The rules are different when the child is working in a family business.

                  Now, those are the federal agency’s guidelines. State rules vary, so speak with your accountant or with the state Department of Labor.

                  You’ll be able to deduct your child’s salary and any fringe benefits you offer, such as health insurance. And, check this out:

                  Your child won’t be subject to Medicare or Social Security taxes if your business is “a sole proprietorship or a partnership in which each partner is a parent of the child.”

                  And, if the kids are younger than 21, you won’t have to pay unemployment taxes for them.

                  Finally, your child won’t have to file a tax return as long as his or her income doesn’t exceed the standard deduction—helpful information when deciding how much to pay the child.

                  Get more information on hiring your kids from the IRS. We aren’t tax professionals but what we do know is the power of tax deductions. Work with a professional to ensure you get every deduction you are entitled to.

                        Quick! What is the purpose of your real estate website? It’s a given that some of the most common purposes are to showcase your listings, offer IDX for home shoppers, and create brand awareness.

                        All worthy goals for real estate agents. 

                        Reaching those goals requires website traffic, otherwise, you’re just whistling in the wind.

                        If you want your real estate website to attract visitors and generate leads, you need to pay attention to it. Today, we take a look at five ways you can optimize your real estate website to get more eyes on it.

                        1. Is your real estate website design responsive?

                        “A responsive web design automatically adjusts for different-sized screens and viewports,” according to the folks at bluecorona.com.

                        Why is this important?

                        U.S. adults spend more than five hours per day on their smartphones, generating more than “… 60% of website traffic,” according to Robin Layton at allconnect.com, a broadband marketplace.

                        This means that the chances are excellent that your website traffic will come via potential clients searching on their smartphones. If your site isn’t responsive they most likely won’t stick around to see what you have to offer.

                        You can test your website, free, with Google’s Mobile Friendly Test.

                        2. What keywords are you targeting?

                        Real estate agent websites seem to draw more traffic when keywords are local. 

                        Oh, imagine that! All real estate really is local.

                        If I want to purchase or sell a home in Las Vegas, NV, I won’t be asking Google to show me homes for sale or listing agents in Nevada. 

                        Since all real estate is local, all keywords on your site should be local as well. This includes specific neighborhoods.

                        3. Are you consistently adding new content to the site?

                        The best way to do this is by blogging, consistently.  

                        Keep visitors up-to-date on what’s happening in the local market. Offer reviews of places you like to eat, drink (coffee or cocktails!), get your dog groomed, etc. The topics are endless.

                        Be sure to send copies of business reviews to the business owners. You may just earn a spot on their blog! Instant traffic.

                        Don’t forget to shoot these blog posts out to your social media platforms as well.

                        4. Include testimonials 

                        This tip isn’t so much to help generate traffic as it is to help impress the visitors you are able to attract. 

                        Sure, you can toot your own horn, but that will most likely go in one ear and out the other.

                        Social proof is far more convincing and relatable and can positively impact their choice of an agent.

                        Visitors are also more likely to stick around longer. After all, others find you trustworthy, so why shouldn’t they?
