The question now revolves around how brokers can improve listing absorption rate, and the types of tools and measurement devices that are required to accomplish this.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Listing Standards<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">One of the mistakes that real estate leaders make is in failing to track and then hold agents accountable to \u2018Listing Standards\u2019. Listing standards vary but generally relate to both productivity standards and culture.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">As has already been established, the impact of unsold inventory is stark. Awareness of this fact creates a compelling case for managerial control through employing listing standards.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">*What are your standards for skill development, listing presentations and pricing adjustments?<br \/>\n*Are your agents accepting listings priced within +\/- 5{0a8e414e4f0423ce9f97e7209435b0fa449e6cffaf599cce0c556757c159a30c} of the price indicated in a comparative market analysis?<br \/>\n*Are your agents highly skilled at delivering the value of your company tools and services in a listing presentation?<br \/>\n*Are your agents bringing listing terms of at least 6 months in duration?<br \/>\n*Are your listings easily accessible and well staged for marketing?<br \/>\n*Are your agents making sure properties are well positioned on the appropriate Internet sites with ample numbers and quality of pictures and video included in all postings?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">If the answers to these questions are unclear in your mind, the associated loss in revenue is likely far greater than you might ever expect. When I managed real estate offices, there were listing standards for all points mentioned above and my signature was required before a listing could be processed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Aged Active Listing Report <\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">An Aged Active Listing Report is a management tool whereby the entire listing inventory is viewed with key data for each listing including days on the market (DOM) and price reductions taken by the listing agent(s). This tool enables a business leader to directly measure sales agent proficiency in attaining price reductions while indirectly gauging effectiveness in listing presentations and pricing presentations. That knowledge in turn, empowers the branch leader to construct coaching and training programs designed to reinforce the needed listing skills.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">One possible view of an Aged Active Listing Report is offered below.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mceTemp mceIEcenter\" style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<div class=\"mceTemp mceIEcenter\">\n<figure id=\"attachment_386\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-386\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bhgrecareer.com\/bebetterblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2008\/09\/agedactivelisting.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-386\" title=\"aged_active_listing_table2\" src=\"https:\/\/bhgrecareer.com\/bebetterblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2008\/09\/aged_active_listing_table2.jpg\" alt=\"Aged Active Listing Table\" width=\"500\" height=\"219\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-386\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Aged Active Listing Table<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Integrating Listing Absorption into the Company Culture<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Finally, a good way to positively reinforce this concept is to tie absorption, price adjustments and time on the market to things that the agents need and\/or want. There are many ways to support a good Listing Absorption Rate, including but not limited to the following.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">a. Visibly displaying individual agent achievement by highlighting price reductions on the office production chart<br \/>\nb. Creating monthly office \u201cListing Absorption\u201d awards or incentives<br \/>\nc. Establishing minimum absorption rate in order for agents to qualify for company-generated listing leads<br \/>\nd. Establishing contests whereby agents who list and convert listings within a specified time frame are recognized, and<br \/>\ne. Granting \u2018marketing dollars\u2019 to agents who achieve specific absorption levels<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Be sure to check with your local MLS, Boards of Realtors\u00ae and State regulators in order to assure compliance with all applicable laws and regulations concerning contests and rewards.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Posted by Bob Albanese In my last blog I wrote about \u201closs connected with a low listing absorption rate\u201d and the clear upside in maintaining strong performance in this area.
