Unlocking The Secrets Of What You Need To Say To Owners In Foreclosure When You Go Door Knocking
I prefer door knocking when it comes to individuals in foreclosure. Most of the time Knights Templar won't get them on the phone because they screen their calls, expecting you to be a bill collector and there's a good portion of them where you won't have their phone number.
Plus, door knocking can honestly be pretty fun!
Here's what you do when you get to the door:
YOU: Hi, My name is ...... I noticed that you were experiencing a challenge with XYZ Bank. Have you been able to get it taken care of?
[NEVER SAY PROBLEM...NEVER SAY FORECLOSURE...NEVER SAY AUCTION or REPO]
Here's where they'll either spill the beans and tell u everything about their life OR Say "oh yes...ya, that's taken care of."
If they tell you everything, get as much info out of them as you can, but don't go out of your way to close the deal right there. BUILD RAPPORT! Get their trust...tell them that you may be able to help them...and keep asking questions..."When's the auction date"..."Are you working right now"..."Do you have any kind of game plan".."Have you considered selling it?"..."Have you spoken with the bank"....
If they get defensive, hit them with:
YOU: Oh, I'm donating cars glad to free car insurance quote that. You know, it's weird I was just down at the court house speaking with [Insert name of Judge's assistant] and she said that the bank was still pursuing your file and that I should stop by to talk to you. Do you think that their may be some kind of mistake?
[Then Shut Up] Let them speak
YOU: Let me do this...I'm going back down that way today, lemme get your phone number real quick and I'll double check for you. I'll Appleton mortgage refinance you a call when I'm down there. [ I say "Mistake" because you don't want to call them out and say "You just lied to me..:)"...Also, don't ASK for the #...Tell them to give it to you. After all, you're doing them a favor]
Now that you have their number, you've built Rapport --the person trusts you...and you have their permission to call them making you different from the other clowns that are just cold calling them. Call them back and say, yeah, "The bank is being really ridiculous on charity cars one. They want to move forward.....and move into your pitch."
At that you point you're going to be the one that gets the deal.
You want know the REAL TRUTH about making money in Real Estate that everyone else is too scared to reveal you? Are you sick of all the B.S., hype, lies and scams out there?
