NEW LISTING ALERT - MAUI NEW LISTINGS
Do you still get excited when you get a new listing? Do you want to tell everyone you know? Do you bring it up in every conversation?
What do you do first? Do you email all of your contacts and SOI, your fellow agents? How fast can you get it into the MLS?
What about pictures? Do you order the virtual tour and get pictures at different times of day? Do you input the maximum amount of flattering pictures? Do you print up brochures and flyers? Will you do a mail out?
Are you ready to start showing it? Is there a Realtor Caravan where you can showcase your new listing? Will you do any Open Houses?
Are your signs ready? Do you have nice looking frames and brochure boxes?
I still get excited when I get a new listing. I look forward to spreading the word and letting the world know. I lose sleep thinking about creative new ways to market each property. It's a good buzz.
I hope I will always get excited about selling homes on Maui.

Goergina, I'm like a child with a new toy when I get a listing. Fortunately(for my seller), my attention span with my new toy is a little bit longer than a childs!
Dana - I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one.
It is a great thing to feel that way. I get excited meeting my clients, and going over their new home with them.
Morning Georgina - Yes, I still get excited when I get a new listing and when I get to go out and look at new homes with customers.
Yes, I was told I am an adrenaline junkie! I said thank you.
Georgina,
Yes I do.....and now more than ever.
I always admit 2007 was a bust for me after a banner 2006. I have now partnered up with a newly licensed Agent and have been rejuvinated. So marketing it the aggressive way is the only way to get through in today's environment.
Spread the word that is the main thing and yes I do still get excited!
Your Friend in Charlottesville Virginia!
I love when I get to create a new flyer, Real Estate Show, property site...it IS like having a new toy! The marketing side of being a listing agent is my favorite part :)
I'm glad you made this post Georgina, I always get excitied with a new listing because I'm passionate about what I do. The agents with the Ho-Hum attitude make me wonder if they really love what they do.
Georgina: I do get excited when I get a new listing. I love putting the pictures into the MLS and making up the brochures.
Frank - I'm glad you made it here, thanks for the comment.
Pam - me too - I love that we have a license to "snoop" and see inside so many great homes
Donna Marie - Is that the explanation then?
Dan - thanks for commenting twice - don't you hate it when you forget to log in?
Charles - I am working on it as I type.
Lisa - And the mini photo album is cool too.... from Big Labs.
Bob - I hope I never get ho hum!
Chris Ann - whew - I just spent hours tweaking the 30 photos and getting them uploaded.
Hi Georgina,
I still get excited every time I get a new listing, I hope it always stays that way. :)
I think the fact that I get excited is one of the reasons clients come to me to sell their homes.
Suzanne - that's good - keep it up.
Randy - don't you love it when they come to you just for that reason!
Hi Georgie,
Nice to see you at Papali Wailea. Nice listing, I just listed a really nice commerical piece today bring me a offer.
Steve
Georgina, I do all that, and more. Even before I get there, I'm already thinking of what I can do differently. I put together really nice colour brochures to leave at the house, so every potential buyer can take one away (they won't forget the property that way). I try to pass by the house, even before the listing appointment, to take a great photo of the outside, and start the colour brochure that I take with me to the listing presentation, to give them a first look at what the brochure will look like. I fill in the inside with other colour photos, not necessarily of their house, but their house shows on the front - and that usually is a great start. I love it. I have worked mostly with buyers, but I do get all excited about new listings.
Some times its nice to know that you are loved. What better way to say then we will you help me sell my home.
Steve - I saw that - great location for a commerial lot, congrats.
Sylvie - That sounds like a good marketing plan. Good luck.
Scott - That's a nice way of looking at it!
Gorgeous and spectacular views from this home! I know what you mean about being excited when you get a listing. I always have a confidence boost when I get a listing. It make me feel sure about my talent.
NaN - Isn't it nice to get a boost like that?!
Georgina - the excitement is what keeps us doing what we do!!!!
Georgina- I love that picture and thought that was your new listing.....it says "Buy me"! Anyway, yes I still get excited over a new listing.....because now I don't take ones that I don't think will sell for one reason or another........I could feel your enthusiasm....nice :)
BJ - I think you're right.
Kathy - that is the new listing! I just got the virtual tour done this afternoon... look for that soon.
