HOW APRIL HUNTER IS KEEPING HER TEAM IN THE GAME
because you don't have to do everything yourself.”
“I tell them all the time, ‘There is a delay; there is not a denial.’ We may have a few delays, but we don't have any denials here at House Hunters Realty.”
Before the outbreak, April was having a lucrative first quarter, having sold 8 homes herself while running the brokerage. “My team was up and running. Eight houses — that's a lot when you're building a brand, you're building a team,” April says. “I'm dealing with their situations that they have coming with their clients, with some of them not knowing how to do contracts or need my help with contracts.” But despite the current hurdles they’re facing, April is helping her team pull through and keep closing deals. “My team is awesome,” April says. “You know, there is a huge support system. They're helping themselves. I'm helping them.”
April Hunter
That’s the attitude Authorify member April Hunter, a real estate agent and broker based in Atlanta, Ga., is striving to instill in her team as they navigate working during the COVID-19 outbreak.
April’s brokerage is still relatively new, and she employs a team of about 10 agents.
“The way I got these agents was because I started doing so well with my listings — as you guys know if you've followed me from on social media and through Smart Agents,” April says. “I got my broker's license and wanted to take a step back. So then I became a coach, and I started being able to teach people how to do these things for themselves. And then, those same people converted over to being my Realtors under my brokerage.” “The way I started getting my listings was because, you know, the way I was calling the expireds and then the books put the icing on the cake for me, kind of — like the Done-For-You program. I was doing that for myself, before this even came about. And it's awesome that they had that now
The most important thing, she says, is not to wait on the sidelines.
“With everything going on, you have to make sure it's all about really your mindset,” April says. “First of all, you do have to make sure that you stay top of mind. So, what I had been doing is I've been leveraging the books, the website. Now is the best time to follow up. Now is the best time to still try to send out mailers if you can.”
