In commercial real estate agency today, you can create a ‘checklist’ approach to the property sales process. This procedure can help you be far more effective as an agent with your clients and with the marketing of the property.
In simple terms you can create a ‘sales timetable’ to keep you on track with the most important things relating to the client and the listing. You could say that the approach is a way of keeping you organised on the issues that matter.
