Unrepresented Seller Suggestion
When talking with an unrepresented seller, in person or by phone, rather than pushing our services on them before they're ready, we might offer to help them. Where are they moving? Would they like to have an agent in that location send them some information? No obligation to them, of course, but could help them get started. We have colleagues around the country (and world) and would be happy to match them with a REALTOR® with experience, match personalities, and add another layer of responsibility. This may lead to getting the listing later, but in the meantime could provide you with referral income.

Sharon love that new use of unrepresented seller we need to spread the word. Great points
Sometimes Unrepresented Sellers send me stuff with pictures in my email (with their mass mailings that they send everyone). Most agents just hit the delete key. Not me. If it is something that is reasonably priced and in a good area, I reply to them with "let me show your house on my private website" Some let me do it to gain more exposure. There's just one catch, I don't expose the contact info so that buyers must contact ME to see the house if they are not smart enough to drive by it and knock on the door. Hey, I just might get a buyers commission!
