The Agents on the tour are looking for additional market exposure, or they are previewing property for buyers.
The Broker Tour gets your property the attention of the high producers in Kitsap County. It also gives newer agents a chance to meet other Real Estate Professionals, get feedback on listings and pick up some great ideas from the best and the brightest Agents in the County.
The Broker Tour builds your credibility with your clients. Sellers want to know you are doing everything possible to sell their property. Show your sellers their listing on the Broker Tour! They will see you are creative and motivated. They will know they are in the hands of a Professional Real Estate Agent with connections to many other Agents in the County.
Use the Feedback System to help sell your listing. Have a client who insists on pricing the property too high? Feedback from other local Real Estate Agents may be just the tool you need to convince your client their ideas of value may not be accurate. Now it's not just you saying the price is too high, it's multiple Agents with the same opinion. Is your listing a decent property that just needs a bit of sprucing up? Take the Tour feedback to your client to convince them of the need to mow the lawn, remove the dead cars, paint the porch or Stage the property.
