| most successful real estate agent: The HyperLocal, HyperFast Real Estate Agent Daniel Lesniak, 2017-02-23 #1 Best-Seller on Amazon! According to recent surveys the average real estate agent makes less than $10,000 a year and close to 90% of new agents will not last more than two years in the business. Fewer than 10% of agents will make over $100,000 and the majority that do have been in the business for decades. The average real estate agent sells 12 homes a year and for agents that are just starting out that number is less than four. In 2012 Dan Lesniak used a unique strategy to upend the industry trends. In his first year in real estate Dan had over 36 transactions totaling over $22 million in sold volume, making him one of the most successful rookie real estate agents ever on his way to taking over one of the most competitive market areas in the country, that had previously been dominated by agents with over 10 years experience. In The HyperLocal, Hyper Fast Real Estate Agent, Dan tells how he used the Segmentation, Targeting and Positioning (STP) framework to identify potential markets, choose which ones to go after and how to add massive value to the consumers in that market. This book will teach you how to use the STP framework to enter new markets or increase market share in your existing markets by adding more value to your potential clients and communicating your value proposition to the market. Whether you are a new agent getting started or a veteran agent looking for more growth this book will show you how to do it using examples of how Dan did it in the hyper competitive Arlington, VA (Greater Washington DC) market. What Other Industry Leaders Have Said About the Book I have been coaching realtors for 22 years. Dan is the best business man who sells real estate that I've ever seen. He has great systems, structures, and processes. That is what separates him from the rest! -Rick Ruby - Core Head Coach One of my favorite sayings is follow the yellow brick road. In this book, Dan clearly lays out the path to the Emerald City, avoiding all the dangers of creating your own way. In Dan's first year, he closed over $22 million in sales, a feat matched by only the tiniest fraction of real estate agents-regardless of experience. If you are looking for a step-by-step plan from someone who has done it, this is the book for you! -Pam O'Bryant, Chief Engagement Officer for Keller Williams Capital Properties, Contributor to Gary Keller's The Millionaire Real Estate Agent book There is no greater opportunity right now in the real estate industry than there is in the expansion market. This will require you to grow in your existing market and know how to expand in new ones. This book is a great example of how to rapidly expand in any market and is a must read for expansion team leaders. -Noah Ostroff, Chief Executive Officer of Global Living and Top Selling Keller Williams Agent Dan Lesniak is the real deal. He runs the most profitable real estate team I know of, hands down. If you want to compress time to achieve your goals, listen to this guy and take action now! -Jeff Latham, President of Latham Realty Unlimited with 275 homes sold annually Dan and I first met when he was just getting started in the business, and I have been blown away at how he was able to grow his brand so rapidly in a very competitive market. Dan's creative approach and tenacity has served him well, and he is a great example of how to commit and succeed as a young real estate agent. -Thad Wise, Senior Vice President with First Savings Mortgage Corporation and $100 Million Loan Officer Dan Lesniak is by far one of the brightest and highest-skilled real estate agents I have had the pleasure of working with; his strategies for his clients are brilliant! Dan has succeeded in one of the most competitive markets in the country, while also growing his brokerage and giving back to the community. -Elysia Stobbe, Real Estate RockStar and #1 Best Selling Author of How To Get Approved for the Best Mortgage Without Sticking a Fork in Your Eye |
| most successful real estate agent: Million Dollar Agents Phil Hollander, Dan Lok, 2021-08-23 How Top Real Estate Agents Really Create HIGH INCOME, WEALTH, AND INDEPENDENCE A rare and insightful view into how highly successful Real Estate Professionals create a balanced and prosperous lifestyle out of what can be a chaotic and highly unpredictable business. Written in a refreshing interview format that brings to life the unique systems and strategies of Agents that have truly made it in the Real Estate Industry. Jillian Dobson Broker RE/MAX Realtron Realty Inc., Brokerage THIS BOOK IS the result of over fifteen years of travelling throughout both Canada and the United States and meeting, speaking and working with literally thousands of real estate agents. After working with some of the top agents in North America, there is a clear and definitive common thread that defines them. If you really take a close look at what we would refer to as the top 10% of realtors who are successful and prosperous, while there are differences, there are many profound similarities: In how they structure their business, Their strategies, Their overall mindset and how they approach what they do. This stands in stark contrast to the vast majority of agents who are struggling or just getting by barely making a living. We have often said that we have never met the five year old that decided they want to be a realtor when they grow up. Most come to real estate as a second or third profession and usually from vastly different backgrounds. Most agents start off in the same place with lots of unanticipated startup expenses and little or no business at the beginning. The ones who actually build a prosperous and successful real estate career with consistent income and a great lifestyle for their families have done so by discovering a few simple truths about the real estate business. Simple truths like how to manage themselves and their relationships. They have done so in such a way as to navigate the journey from being a transactional agent perpetuating the feast-to-famine cycle, always being at the whim of the economy and competing with every other agent in their market, to creating a systems-based business and taking back control over their business and their lives. Ultimately, this book is about the journey from being a transactional agent to becoming a prosperous systems-based one where it is all about the lifestyle. What these agents interviewed in this book have done is make the real estate business work for them rather than the majority of agents who can be at the whim of what can be a wildly unpredictable and tumultuous business. In writing this book, we interviewed a broad cross section of the most successful agents and allowed them to tell their story with the ultimate goal of uncovering and sharing some of their golden nuggets of wisdom. One of our favorite sayings is that all the great truths in life are simple for if they were complex everyone would understand them. It is our intent to share some of these simple truths with you so that you too will have a rich and rewarding real estate career. Phil Hollander & Dan Lok |
