Hi,
I am looking for a real estate agent licensed in Florida. If you have not heard of me or CondoFiasco let me give you a brief introduction. Please read the entire letter or this will not make sense. In 2004 my wife and I made a $70k deposit on a pre-construction condo in Miami. The total cost of the unit is $355k. We never intended to close on the condo. Our plan was to sell it long before completion. Well, you probably know what happened. The market sank and now I’m in a tough situation. Come January, I have to decide whether I walk away from my deposit or close on the unit.
Anyway, what I need is professional. If I decide to close on the unit, I will need an agent to sell it for me later. I have tried to sell it on my own and failed. Now, before you pick up the phone and call me let me stop you. I am sick and tired of dealing with real estate agents. Ever since I went public with this whole thing, I’ve gotten so many calls from agents proposing to sell the unit for me. How do I decide who to hire? I have heard so many horror stories of sellers hiring agents who just sit around waiting like it’s a numbers game.
I need a pro-active agent who knows buyers!
I am sending out emails to as many agents as I can find and inviting ALL OF THEM to read this letter. That will probably be thousands of agents. Of course, I will ultimately choose only one agent. There is one way to get my business right away…show me a buyer! I won’t hold my breath. If you’ve read the rest of my blog, you’ll understand I don’t want to lose money with this deal. If my goal were to lose money I would just walk away from the deposit. But I want to hear from you. I want to see if there is an agent with the guts to take this on. But again, don’t call me. I couldn’t possibly sit and listen to a thousand agents…I don’t have that many minutes on my phone plan. Instead, fill out the online form telling me about yourself and why I or anyone else should choose you.
Now here comes the good part for you. Aside from getting my business, you will get tons of other unit owners calling you. I will recommend your services to all the unit owners who have registered on my site. Also, there is a lot of attention being given to my blog. The agent I chose will also make headlines.
I will be as fair as I can be. Don’t think that because you are too old or too young that I won’t chose you. Give it a shot. Fill out the form below and tell me why I should chose you. Upload your picture too. Regardless of who I choose, all agents who register will get a special profile page on my site. I am making a real estate agent directory and you will automatically be included if you apply.
Now, I will be contacting as many agents as possible. I am also getting some help to contact as many agents and brokers as possible. It will me hundreds, possibly thousands. On the agent profile page you can write as much as you like about yourself. You can link to your website, you can post your photos, hell you can even show some properties that you are selling. I don’t care. But if you want my business be sure to give me compelling reasons. I will also let readers vote on who I should choose.
As you can imagine, this will be a lot of work for me. I will have to evaluate all these agents. So I will make this a little easier on myself and will filter only the serious applicants by charging $9.99 to be in the roster. “WHAT!?”, you might ask, “You want me to pay to be considered?” I figure, if an agent too cheap to pay $9.99 to get my business, then I don’t need them. Besides, getting exposure on my agent directory is worth much more than that anyway.
Seriously, the benefits outweigh the cost. You are getting a link from a great website for less than $10. You get to create your own profile page on my site. Not only will you get visitors to your website, but it will help your site rank in the search engines. How long will these pages stay up? For as long as I have this site. I will never charge you a renewal fee or anything like that. The page is permanent.
So let’s go over the benefits:
- A chance to sell my condo
- My referral to all the other unit owners
- A profile page about you on my website
- A boost in your search engine rankings
Are you ready? Get started here. Once you pay, be ready to fill out your profile page and upload your photo.
