WCR Home Tour Rules
|
RULE #1: To submit a request to tour just e-mail the link from the MLS to
Ashley Dietch ashley@svgfirm.com. Listing agents must be present at the Haves and Needs session to present their property for tour. RULE #2: Listing agents are responsible to have Sign in sheets and Feedback Forms (only if the listing agent wants feedback ie: no form, no feedback) _ at the house being held open. It is very helpful if the listing agent will provide those items in multiples as needed to the affiliate host at the Haves and Needs meeting. RULE #3: If a house is vacant and the listing agent requests an affiliate host it is the listing agent's responsibility to a)make sure the driveway is plowed and walk shoveled b)make sure there is heat in the house c)make sure there is a chair or other creature comfort to show appreciation to the host for their time and commitment to helping us sell our inventory. RULE #4: We do not re-tour listings (unless of course we have a light week and are driving by). RULE #5: A preliminary tour is posted the weekend before scheduled tour. It is the only notice listing agents will get regarding their property being on tour. It is the listing agents responsibility to review the tour list, verify property availability and make arrangements for hosting. Amy Hayes with Parks Title will coordinate hosts but the listing agent must contact her to verify they would like a host. This makes it possible for the LA to tour the other properties. E-mail her at ahayes@parkstitle.com. |
RULE #6: There will not be a scheduled date of tours posted. We
may have in excess of 20 property requests for a particular area. Because 9 - 10 is our absolute max for a 2 hour tour it is necessary to split a particular area into two weeks. If this happens, it disrupts any tour schedule, and agents who have promised a particular date to their client end up with egg on their face; through no particular fault of their own. In the interest of our profession looking it's very best we will continue to move fluidly through the market area based upon requests received. It appears we will work on approximately 4 - 6 week rotation. RULE #7: Haves and needs session is to start at 9:00 am SHARP! The objective is to give agents a time to introduce their inventory ie: new listings, price reductions, buyer prospects and special events. Affiliates are encouraged to introduce themselves and share any particular insight their industry may have; this enhances our market knowledge and in the long run our clients. This is a perfect opportunity to speak to 30 - 50 area professionals. The Haves and Needs session has a goal to be out of the room by 9:40 am. This gives us time to spend getting to the houses on tour and spend our most productive 2 hours of the week working in our business to develop market and inventory knowledge. RULE #8: WCR Home Tour is for the entire GRAR membership, hosted by WCR. WCR members may put as many listings on tour throughout the year FREE. GRAR members who do not belong to the WCR will pay $20.00 to have a property on tour. This $20.00 fee will be due and payable when the listing is posted. If the listing agent does not show up for tour this fee is still payable. If the listing agent does not pay the fee they will not be able to utilize this tool until all back fees are paid. Write a check for $20.00 payable to WCR (for a tax deductible business expense) and give to the tour director. RULE #9: Affiliates who host properties must be a WCR member. |
