Year after year, more information becomes available to consumers as technology evolves and real estate consumer websites become more robust. It can be a challenge for real estate professionals to keep up with the ever-evolving online landscape, while also managing the increasing number of inbound leads from various sources. Just last month, ListHub delivered more than 1.9 million leads to brokers and agents nationwide.* The question is: how can real estate pros convert more online leads?
A recent report from ComScore shows that more Americans are browsing on their mobile device (61%) than desktop. It’s therefore no surprise that consumer real estate search websites have seen huge surges in mobile traffic in recent years. According to the 2015 Profile and Home Buyers and Sellers from the National Association of REALTORS®, more than half of home buyers (66%) found the home they purchased through mobile search and an increasing number of buyers stated they found their agent through their mobile device. Mobile consumers are on-the-go and looking for immediate responses to their inquiries. Response time is critical – if you’re not following up with leads within 5 minutes, someone else is!
With the number of leads from online sources constantly increasing, it’s crucial to have an effective system to respond to those leads. To maximize lead management and conversion efforts, we’ve put together 5 Tips to Improve Lead Conversion, a FREE guide to help brokers and agents better manage the leads in their pipeline. The guide includes simple tips to help that can be easily applied to make sure there’s no money left on the table with incoming online leads.
