Industry expertise
-
The buyer broker agreement and strengthening the buyer presentation
Effective August 17, 2024, the Buyer Broker Agreement will become an industry standard. Homebuyers will now be required to hire agents via broker agreement, which will be challenging for agents who do not know how to present themselves, their services, and offerings effectively.
Matt breaks down these changes in ways that show why this may be the best time for agents. Matt has tools and insights to teach agents the art of presenting, allowing them to effectively convey their story and value to buyers, and succeed at an even higher level than before.
-
Solving homebuyer affordability challenges
The mortgage industry has historically lacked a clear, concise pre-approval process. The best way to address homebuyer affordability challenges is through a thorough pre-approval system, providing buyers with an accountable roadmap that educates and empowers them on their path to purchase.
Matt’s philosophy of “Every buyer counts” leaves no stone unturned with a thorough and accountable pre-approval process that operates 7 days/week, 8 a.m.-9 p.m., 364 days per year. Real estate agents and their buyers are taken care of every step of the way.
Matt also helps agents understand how important their role is in determining a buyer’s interest rate and teaches them how to negotiate with sellers to get credits at closing and reduce the buyer’s interest rate to that of 2021.
-
Selling listings with little or no activity faster
In a transitional market, some listings receive multiple offers while others see minimal activity. For listings with little activity, Matt educates and partners with agents to help their sellers move inventory with the same strategies builders use. After helping over 30,000 families purchase a home, Matt understands what is most important to a buyer and uses this expertise to help agents sell listings faster.
-
Scripting your process
Scaling a consistent business requires a scripted process from the first customer call to closing. This consistency allows agents to measure what works and what doesn’t, ensuring a reliable approach to selling as much real estate as possible.
Matt has designed a scripted, scalable process for his own mortgage practice. Created in 2010 and used to this day, it has allowed him to serve more clients on his way to becoming the number one originator in the nation for most closed transactions.
-
Simplifying a buyer’s decision to use your services
With the upcoming NAR Settlement changes set to take effect, buyer agents will need to know how to formally present their value in order to be hired via a buyer-broker agreement. Matt teaches agents how to create, formalize, and present their buyer proposal. His credibility is based on 25+ years of experience, working with tens of thousands of buyers, leading to his ranking at the top of his industry for 4+ years. Examples include how to demonstrate credibility, hone negotiation skills, create a unique value proposition, and educate buyers about what to expect throughout the homebuying process.
-
Winning more consistently in multiple offer scenarios
When a homebuyer finds the right home, the agent’s job is to eliminate competition and secure better terms. The 7 Elements of a Winning Offer, developed in 2010, has an unmatched winning record, helping clients secure the most offers accepted from 2020-2023.
-
The art of presentation
Every presentation is a performance, encompassing persuasion, storytelling, scripting, rehearsing, value propositions, and professionalism. Mastering these skills can lead to higher success in real estate. Insights from a 27-year study of top presenters can help agents refine their buyer broker presentations.
-
Increasing and demonstrating value
Clients want to feel important and value the unique aspects of an agent’s service. Matt has identified value propositions agents can use that address the most important concerns for both buyers and sellers, according to NAR research. This includes the home search process, negotiation techniques, interest rates, and market knowledge. Matt teaches agents how to provide solutions to these challenges, increasing their value to customers they wish to serve.
