Dear Realtor: A Guide to Understanding What Investors Really Want
I know you’re passionate about the properties you sell and you have an eye for detail when it comes to their unique features.
You might describe a property as being "5 minutes away from Heaven's Gate" or "3 minutes away from your mother's kitchen." But let's get real for a moment—while these descriptions add a charming touch, they often leave investors asking a crucial question: "How does this impact my money?"
Investors Want to Know: Show Me the Money!
When investors hear about a property being close to Heaven's Gate or just a stone's throw from the Ring Road, their main concern is understanding how these features translate to profitability and security. They want clear, concrete answers to two key questions:
1. How will this feature impact my investment?
2. How will this feature make my investment more profitable and secure?
Understanding Investor Concerns
As an investor, I'm interested in more than just the poetic proximity to charming landmarks. I need to know the tangible benefits. For example:
- Proximity to Major Roads: Explain how being near major roads can lead to higher property values due to increased accessibility and convenience.
- Nearby Amenities: Highlight how close proximity to schools, hospitals, and shopping centers can make the property more attractive to potential tenants or buyers, thus increasing rental income or resale value.
- Economic Growth Areas: If the property is near developing areas or business districts, discuss the potential for future appreciation due to ongoing development and job opportunities.
Next Time You Pitch a Property
Before you approach investors with a property pitch, make sure you have done thorough product knowledge. Here’s how to prepare:
Research Market Trends: Understand how similar properties in the area have performed historically and what future trends suggest.
Highlight Economic Benefits: Be ready to explain how the property’s location and features will positively impact the investor’s financial goals.
Provide Data: Use statistics, case studies, and comparisons to support your claims. Concrete data builds trust and credibility.
The Bottom Line
Investors are looking for properties that promise profitability and security. By focusing on how the property’s features directly impact these areas, you can make a compelling case that resonates with what investors truly care about.
Next time you’re pitching a property, remember to go beyond the charming descriptions and focus on the financial benefits. Show investors how their money will grow, and you’ll not only capture their attention but also earn their trust and business.
