Just Listed / Just Sold Program
Description:
The Just Listed / Just Sold Door Knocking Program is one of the most effective strategies for identifying new listing opportunities.
Studies show that homeowners living near a recent listing or sale are 37% more likely to consider selling — especially within the first 7 days of the event.
This program targets homeowners’ natural curiosity:
• What did the home list for?
• What did it sell for?
• How does it affect the value of their home?
By leveraging recent market activity, you offer immediate value to homeowners and open the door for real conversations about their future plans.
Tangent will provide you with a fresh list each week, highlighting homes that have just listed or sold, including the specific target streets for your door knocking.
Key Steps for the Program:
1. Search MLS for Homes Sold in the last 7 days or homes listing in the last 7 days.
2. Target the street where the listing or sale occurred (and adjacent streets if time allows).
3. Door knock with a simple, value-driven conversation: share the news and offer a free home evaluation.
4. Capture interest: Offer to send a market update, or schedule a quick visit if they’re considering selling.
5. Follow-up: Add interested homeowners to your database for ongoing nurturing.
Goal:
Position yourself as the expert who knows what’s happening in the neighborhood — and the one homeowners will call when they’re ready to move.
