Donna Forrest of Keller Williams in Charlotte, NC, closed five
transactions in one month from HouseHunt leads earning $35,000 in commissions
on more than $1 million in sales.
“Not too bad for a single mom with two kids in only my second year in the business,” said Forrest, a top producer among 300 sales agents in the Keller Williams office in Charlotte, NC. Last year she closed $2.2 million in gross sales volume.
“Eighty-five percent of my business comes from HouseHunt leads,” she explained. “I am starting to get referrals, including some from HouseHunt clients I have not yet met. I hired an assistant in February and will add a buyer agent this month.”
Currently, Forrest is working with a buyer-couple from New Jersey who are negotiating offers on a $1.2 million estate and a $950,000 property in the Charlotte metro area. This lead also came from HouseHunt. In addition, she just took a listing for $600,000 thanks to her affiliation with HouseHunt. |

One of HouseHunt’s first clients, Broker/Owner Tom Denny
of CENTURY Beachside in Huntington Beach, CA – one of the top CENTURY 21
firms in the history of the system – has been a big believer in HouseHunt.com
and MoveUp.com. For 18 consecutive years, CENTURY 21 Beachside has consistently
finished in the Top 10 of all firms in the CENTURY 21 System and has been among
the System's top one percent in units sold. In 2003, the firm was number three
in the world for sales volume. Last year, the Beachside Team helped nearly 6,600
families buy or sell a home. This represented more than $2.1 billion in real estate
sales.
The Beachside team uses HouseHunt’s systems not only for lead generation, but also for relocation and agent recruiting and retention. Beachside believes that the TIM system, which ties automated follow up and agent training by national trainer Jim Droz, to be a big factor in increasing agent productivity. The Beachside team owns numerous community and ZIP code territories in the Southern California marketplace.
“We realized some time ago that Internet technology was going to play a key role in the future of the industry,” Denny said. “HouseHunt gives the opportunity to clearly establish ourselves as the company of choice in the local marketplace, provide consumers with the information they are seeking, and provide our agents with prospects they wouldn’t receive from traditional sources. Simply put, if it didn’t work, I wouldn’t buy it.” |
