As a Real Estate Agent, it’s important to have a network of professionals that you can trust. There are a million different things that can come up in the buying and selling process. Having a strong connection with local professionals that work adjacent to the industry is vital. Parkbench is an amazing way to grow and nurture those relationships!

In our recent bestseller, Becoming a Local Leader, Rob Hundley speaks to this. As a Local Leader in Gilbert, AZ, relationships are the name of the game.

Let’s hear from him.

“As a Real Estate Agent, I have had any number of deals held together with the amazing power of relationships. I built my own list of go-to folks. These are people I have come to know and trust. If they say they will do it, they will do it. They have my back and I have theirs.” 

If you want to build relationships with these professionals, it’s important to support them first. If you want a roster of people who will help you in a pinch, you need to show them that you would do the same. Parkbench offers you the opportunity to approach new contacts from a point of contribution. This allows you to have a conversation and unpack what their greatest challenges are. 

When you solve the problems of those in your community, they naturally want to return the favour.

Consider the list of professions you interact with in your Real Estate business. Lenders, contractors, plumbers, home stagers, interior designers… the list goes on. If you don’t have a secure and go-to person in that industry, there’s a gap in your business.

Not only will this allow you to build a strong network, BUT you’ll also start to see a lot more referrals coming your way. These professionals talk with homeowners all the time, and it’s your job to ensure they’ll have your back when someone needs an agent. Have their back, and they’ll have yours.
