Expireds Tip • Preview listing before expiration. • Make appointment when you know Seller will be home. • Use your Getting to Know You Booklet and ask Homeowner to guide you through the property. Note: This is not a solicitation. The purpose of your visit is to preview the property for your current and future buyers. After the property expires or if the seller call you to invite you in, you may then discuss listing and marketing the property.
Be Prepared for Two Questions: Expireds • Why do you think my house didn’t sell? • Why didn’t you show/sell it? DEFER:“I would be happy to answer those questions and others. Let’s make an appointment to meet so we can formally discuss.”
