(April 7, 2003) Huntington Beach, CA - Scott Brown, a top producer for RE/MAX Signature Properties in Portland, has tried a lot of different Internet Web sites, only to be disappointed in both results and service. That is, until he found HouseHunt.com.
Scott has been a member of HouseHunt.com for just six months. He has already closed two transactions, received hundreds of quality leads from across the county and is currently working actively with more than 50 buyers and sellers who contacted him through his HouseHunt.com websites. “Business has never been better and continues to increase thanks to my HouseHunt.com websites, Brown said. “The response is incredible. I receive approximately 20 leads per month from each of my two sites and the quality has been excellent.” While his knowledge and enthusiasm have made him one of the top real estate specialists in the Portland communities of Gresham and Milwaukie, Brown is also a big believer in technology. With more and more home buyers beginning their search on the Internet, Brown wanted to make sure he was capturing his fair share of that business, particularly buyers looking to relocate from other parts of the country. After trying several different real estate websites with big promises and mediocre results, Scott came across something completely different. His HouseHunt.com Website and free follow-up systems have allowed Scott to offer consumers across the globe with free information on local communities, listings, home prices and buying and selling information in Gresham and Milwaukie. Consumers quickly get the information they are seeking and can then contact Scott when they are ready to buy or sell or if they would like further information. The influx of business has required Scott to hire two assistants, one for each of his sites. They utilize a team approach to ensure that clients are kept in the loop every step of the way. Scott’s technique for handling so many leads is simple. First, he or one of his assistants respond to each lead by e-mail. As part of that response, prospective buyers are sent at least a dozen listings that match their criteria. Scott then contacts each person by phone within 24 hours of receiving the lead to determine if they would like to look at additional listings and if they are already working with an agent. Lastly, Scott e-mails them his eBusiness card so that they can learn more about him and what he has to offer. “This process has kept me knee deep in new business and I love it.” Each prospect is entered into Scott’s Total Internet Marketing (TIM) database of prospective clients that automatically sends out new listings and bi-monthly e-mails to each prospect. The TIM system is an Internet-based marketing and follow-up system that comes free with his exclusive territory. HouseHunt.com is also a great listing tool. “For those seeking to sell their home, my HouseHunt.com membership allows me to generate local, out-of-state and out-of-the country buyer leads. That is something that no other agent in the local marketplace can provide to his or her clients.” HouseHunt, Inc. has been producing tremendous results for real estate agents since 1995 through its lead-generation websites - HouseHunt.com and HomeValueHunt.com. The secret to the company’s success is quite simple: HouseHunt, Inc. provides consumers with easy access to the real estate information they want and its agent members with unmatched lead-generation systems, exclusivity and a proven repetitive contact system. HouseHunt.com features in-depth information and listings for communities across the country and is designed for both buyers and sellers. HomeValueHunt.com provides consumers with free sales data on homes in their neighborhood and targets sellers in specific ZIP codes.
