In real estate, clients are the lifeblood of your business. Your clients are what pays your bills, but they also have the power to bring your repeat business and referrals when you’ve done a great job for them. As a result, being able to work easily and efficiently with clients to service all their real estate needs is an extremely important skill for a real estate agent to possess if they want to be successful.

At SPiRALNY, we pride ourselves on our agents’ ability to take care of their clients and give them a premier real estate experience. Here are our top recommendations for working with clients to ensure the deal is closed seamlessly every time. 

Normally, the life of a real estate agent in New York City is extremely fast-paced. We rarely have the time to organize our client database, develop our marketing plans, or even update our LinkedIn profiles. 

However, as the COVID-19 pandemic has swept across the world, it seems that many of us are left with more time than we know what to do with. While the real estate industry may temporarily be at a standstill, agents have the opportunity to take care of tasks they otherwise wouldn’t have the time to. 

Here are SPiRALNY’s 7 tips for real estate agents to make the most of their time during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

In recent years, more and more people are entering the real estate profession on a part-time basis. While working part-time in real estate is possible, it doesn’t necessarily mean it is the best idea. Like any other profession, finding success in real estate requires a good deal of your time and effort. Being able to only contribute some of your time will make it difficult for an agent to see substantial earnings.

At SPiRALNY, we’re always open to finding agents willing to work hard towards building clientele and closing deals. However, from our experience, agents that can work on a full-time basis tend to have the most fruitful careers in real estate. Here are a few of the reasons why we at SPiRALNY encourage our agents to be full time.

When considering moving to a new space, you may find yourself debating whether you should buy or rent. Specifically in New York City, renting has become the more popular option. However, is it the wiser choice? At SPiRALNY, we don’t think so.

While renting may require less upfront costs, buying an apartment is the better long term decision. Over time, your property will gain value and help you save money, not to mention the pride of owning your own space. Here are a few reasons we at SPiRALNY recommend buying a home, rather than renting. 

As a real estate agent, the growth of your business is largely reliant on how efficient your marketing methods are. Between building your client network and getting new listings, agents must stay up to date with the latest and most successful marketing techniques to stay relevant in the business. 

At SPiRALNY, we encourage our agents to consistently work on developing their current marketing skills and researching new avenues to market their business. Here are a few of SPiRALNY’s best tips for marketing in the New York City real estate industry.
