The times
Check your appointments and the properties they’re linked to.
A DAY IN THE LIFE OF AN AGENT
Prepare your day of showings, one property at a time.
A day of showings comes down to three things: the times, the addresses and what you need to know about each property. Here’s how to pull them together in My Estate Map before you hit the road.
Your first 3 properties are free, on iPhone and iPad.
IN PRACTICE
What should you check before a day of real estate showings?
The details
Review contact details and notes in each file.
The addresses
Locate properties on the map and get ready to go.
A SIMPLE METHOD
Start with your calendar, then prepare each showing.
Check the day’s appointments and open the linked properties. Confirm times and addresses. Leave yourself enough time between showings for travel; the app doesn’t plan a route for you.
Review each property file: owner contact details, latest notes and practical information you already recorded. If something is missing, you know which owner to call before you leave.
Locate the addresses on the map, then start directions to your first appointment. After each showing, add your notes while the conversation is still fresh. They’ll be there next time.
This preparation gets fast when your files are up to date. The more you add notes after each showing, the less you have to rebuild a property’s history from your messages or your memory.
KEY POINTS
- Calendar of appointments linked to properties
- Notes saved in property files
- Map of your private portfolio
- Address sent to your GPS app
