ACE Negotiator 2: Objection Obliteration class will be held IN PERSON.
Teaches agents the importance of objections to the customer as they seek to qualify the person they work with. Agents will learn not only why customers use objections but also how to handle them in a way that conveys their true value to the customer. This class is an interactive boot camp where agents are asked to come up with their best responses to common objections and share them before the instructor tells how they would handle the objection. This keeps the class active and forces the agents to think about how to strengthen their dialogue skills for greater customer service.

DESCRIPTION
ACE Negotiator 3: Body Language & Advanced Real Estate Negotiation class will be held IN PERSON.
In this class we dive into the thing that separates the great negotiators from the rest of the pack. This class will teach agents how to analyze and interpret peoples body language. This will allow them to better negotiate for their customers. Knowing how to “read the person” you are negotiating with gives you critical information to adapt your negotiating style to the person you are speaking to. We will teach agents the skills so they can recognize when they are being deceived or when things they are saying are hurting their customers position with the other side. Negotiation is always one of the top reasons customers give why they hire an agent. In this class we show you what the pros use to take your negotiation skills to the next level and prepare you to be a negotiating force to be reckoned with.

DESCRIPTION
Development of Land - Unearthed class will be held IN PERSON.
“Under all is the land” is the opening line of the REALTOR® Code of Ethics. The concept applies to all real estate transactions. Quite often, REALTORS® not conducting transactions involving development on a regular basis don’t realize how many different facets of the industry they need to be knowledgeable about before diving in to assist a client. The purpose of this class is to “unearth” the development process for vacant land or land undergoing redevelopment; discuss factors that can affect development, including land and its uses, laws that regulate land use; evaluation of site conditions; and determination of the feasibility of a proposed new project. Knowledge of these things will allow you to assist your customer to successfully navigate land being redeveloped or a vacant land transaction, whether the purchase is for customers looking for land on which to build their dream home or for a client wanting to develop a new subdivision or retail establishment.

DESCRIPTION
Help Buyers Win in a Competitive Market class will be held IN PERSON.
Is 2022 a good year to buy a house? Let’s get right to it: The 2022 housing market seems likely to be a watered-down version of 2021. That means while home price increases, raising interest rates might be slowing and competition could be a little less intense, overall, we’re still looking at an abnormally hot market. Why?
• Mortgage interest rates will rise
• Home prices will also rise, but not as quickly as in 2021
• Housing inventory will expand
• Sellers will still mostly have the upper hand and will continue to expect multiple offers’
Buyers are finding ways to do whatever it takes to get a home as sellers are getting greedy. Buyers are smarter today as they get creative with their offers to beat the competition. The determination of buyers who aren’t giving up until they get an offer accepted guarantees that competition will remain intense, especially in desirable metros. Prices may go up, rates may rise, inventory could expand, but there’s one certainty we can predict: People will keep on buying houses. Let’s take a look how you can assist the home buyer in winning in a competitive market.

DESCRIPTION
Customer Before Company: Revolutionizing Your Real Estate Business the Nordstrom Way class will be held IN PERSON.
The Nordstrom department store is legendary for exemplary customer service: from the earliest beginnings of Nordstrom, a sign hung from the ceiling that read, “If We Sell You Well, Tell Others. If Not, Tell Us.” Well known for putting customer over company, Nordstrom salespeople are empowered from above to always make it right for the customer. With lessons that can be useful for solo agents, team leaders, and brokers alike, Nordstrom’s business philosophies easily translate into the real estate industry. By taking a page out of the Nordstrom book, from practical translation of the Nordstrom way into customer relationships to incorporating the Nordstrom beliefs into our personal values systems, we can revolutionize our businesses and our industry. Take a closer look at how to:
- Put Nordstrom’s ”customer before company” philosophy into practice – in a written mission statement and/or company policy (personal and/or brokerage) – to maximize the customer experience, focusing on service rather than commission.
- Strive to nurture the long-term relationship. Nordstrom’s top salespeople don’t go straight for the sale: one sale equals one commission; one relationship equals a lifetime of business.
- Recognize the importance of follow-through and incorporate it into your daily routine.
- Decipher the Nordstrom mystique and make it work for your real estate business.
Course material will be provided during class.
