What works for one person doesn't necessarily work for another. You need to identify who you want to market to and then it is trial and error until you find what fits your style and clientele.

- Don't buy leads.

- Host open house often.

- Do an excellent job so you get referral and repeat business.

Funny thing, I sold a property to a client in 2007 and he called me tonight saying he's going to give the tenant notice and list the property with me.

When you do a good job and stay in touch, you've good a good chance of getting referral and repeat business.
