It's no secret the real estate industry has exploded in the past 5 years with record sales in both volume and housing appreciation. This industry growth has put a strain on both office space and equipment, not to mention the increase in competition. One of the top expenses of an R.E. agent has become the ability to print and copy high volume documents on demand when needed.
A high percentage of first time homebuyers visit multiple open houses before choosing an agent. One of the top reasons homebuyers choose to work with a particular agent is their presentation at an open house. Adding color to your documents increases retention over 20%, the desire to act on an offer by 30%, and it simply increases the willingness to read a document by 40%! This is one reason why an increasing percent of R.E. agent's business cards are full-color with their own picture on it.
The advent of the digital camera has made it simple to accurately capture images of a new listing and quickly generate new sell sheets to show new buyers. This allows you and more importantly the homebuyer to narrow down the search without having to waste valuable time driving to all the listings and possibly missing "the one".
A common list of documents frequently produced include:
- Property listings
- Contracts
- Flyers
- Business cards
- Digital pictures
- Mortgage applications
- Housing plans
- Maps
- Home inspection reports
