When was the last time you listed a FSBO? It’s no secret FSBOs can make great leads for agents, but you have to establish a strategy to work with them and convert them on a regular basis so it grows your business.

People are packing up their flip-flops and sunblock, ditching the Jimmy Buffet playlists, and getting ready for a new season of early morning to-do’s, freshly ironed business clothes, and afternoons of sports-practice chauffeuring.

As a real estate agent, what effect does the seasonal change-over have on your business?
