Help Your Clients Sell Their Homes and They’ll Be More Likely to Use You When Buying Their Next

Building relationships is really what being a successful mortgage company is all about. When you can nurture good relationships with your clients, you’re increasing the chances that they’ll use your services the next time they want to buy a home.

One way you can be an asset to your clients is to provide them with as much information and as many resources as you can, whenever they ask for your advice. You can even help them sell their home.

For instance, if your client comes to you asking for tips or advice on how to sell their home more quickly, you can point them to the best home-selling apps on the market. Here are five of the top apps that can help your client achieve their goal.

Homesnap

If your client is wondering what price to put on their home, then Homesnap is an app that can help. Available for free on both Android and iOS, Homesnap provides the user with an easy way to learn about any home, just by taking a picture of it. The app can also provide your client with estimated home values in the area where your clients are selling.

SQFTx

If your client wants to save as much money as possible when selling their home, then the SQFTx app can help them list their home without having to pay their and the buyer’s agents. SQFTx is free to use and available on Android and iOS.

Once the home sells, the client pays a listing fee of about one percent (compared to the usual six percent commissioned by agents) and a $500 transaction fee. SQFTx is a complete resource that your clients can use to list, show, and sell their homes without the cost of a middle-person.

Redfin

Redfin is one of the most popular apps used by sellers and buyers. It boasts a database of more than 70 million properties, and it updates its listings every 15 minutes. So, if your client needs to change information on their listing or to add a few new photos, their listing will be refreshed and up-to-date in just a few minutes, thus keeping on-the-hunt parties interested. Homes sold on Redfin average $3,000 more, and sellers pay just 1.5%.

Zillow

Like Redfin, Zillow is another app that continually ranks among the best real estate apps, and it’s not hard to see why. With Zillow, a buyer can access millions of listings that are included in the standard Multiple Listing Service (MLS) databases used by most real estate professionals.

This means your client can have their home seen on Zillow without having to pay the cost of including their property in the MLS. The app also allows sellers to create walk-through videos that interested buyers can watch before requesting a visit in person. Zillow’s suite of apps is free to use, and available on Android and iOS.

Opendoor

If your client needs to sell their home ASAP, then Opendoor can provide them with an offer in mere minutes. There’s no need to list the property, to show it, or to go through an agent. Your client just types in their address, and they’ll get an instant offer (as long as Opendoor operates in their area). It’s quick, convenient, and the seller has control over the closing timeline. The Opendoor app is free and available on iOS and Android.

Leveraging Technology to Build Relationships

With technology as advanced as it is, it’s never been easier to sell or buy a home. Share these apps with your clients that are looking to sell, and you’ll be taking the necessary steps to help strengthen your relationship with them. And, you’ll also increase the odds that they’ll continue to turn to you for all their future real estate purchases.
