The past decade has seen dramatic shifts between buyers' and sellers' markets. Our current market conditions are causing great scarcity of housing product which is challenging for buyers, sellers who need to also buy, and consumers who are wondering just how high can prices go. Your job as a real estate professional is to provide market information that is relevant for your clients, potential clients, and even those clients whom you have not yet met. There is plenty of opportunity out there, and if you are the agent that can supply the information that allows a buyer or seller to feel confident in their individual strategy, you might find yourself writing an offer or a listing agreement! You will learn:
- What market conditions have created the market inventory challenges we now have and what the future may bring
- The components of a campaign
- The market information buyer and seller consumers need to know and where to find it
- How to structure printed materials to appeal to the four personality types
- Campaign ideas that will get buyers and sellers excited about working with you and learning more about the information you can offer

Think generations aren't important when selling real estate? Think again! Your ability to understand your own generation and its traits as well as those of your clients, colleagues, and competitors is imperative for success in our very competitive market. Their wants and needs are very different, based on their life experiences, the influences that have made the most impact on their decision-making processes, and the way they think about buying and selling real estate. Every real estate agent today must know how to work with 4 different generations: The Silent Generation, Baby Boomers, Generation X, and Millennials. In this class, you will:
- Obtain a significantly broader understanding of the generations and their differences.
- Learn how each generation is influenced throughout their lives by the events that happen to them.
- Learn the most effective ways to work with, and counsel, each generation in terms of buying and selling real estate.
- Learn the most effective ways of communicating with each generation, including in person, in your marketing efforts, in your advertising efforts and in your technology efforts.
1:00am to 4:30pm at the beautiful Best Western Hood River Inn - 1108 East Marina Way, Hood River, OR 97031. Includes 3.5 Washington State continuing education credits. For registration, contact Mid-Columbia Association of Realtors® at (541) 387-2364 or midcolumbiarealtors@gmail.com.

Agents with listings already have a time advantage in a regular market. After all, a typical listing takes less than half the time of a buyer transaction. Now factor one of the most extreme inventory-short markets we have ever seen and all that goes along with it - multiple offers, discouraged buyers, writing offers that don't get chosen, and those hours working with buyers keep ticking up, up, up draining your time and energy. Therefore, he or she who has the listings will have an advantage. But what if you aren't sure where your sellers will come from? Savvy agents are developing strategies for capitalizing on this market opportunity. Are you ready?
Join Denise as she:
- Teaches you how to identify potential sellers in your market
- Shows how to craft a campaign that gets the attention of opportunity sellers
- Outlines how to create messaging for sellers facing a lifestyle change
- Provides the type of information and content sellers need to begin building a relationship with you, even if you haven't met face-to-face
- Offers examples of some of the most effective seller campaigns
- Don't get left behind in 2021! Search for sellers and you will find success!
Online event. Registration includes 6.0 WA State continuing education credits. Club Zebra members members pay only $245.
