How To Get More People To Use Your Lettings and Estate Agency Blog

Why do Some Estate Agents Struggle to Build Trust Quickly? Everyone says trust is the foundation of an estate agent’s success, but how often do we ask why some agents fail at it? Here’s one reason: agents sometimes prioritise their agenda over truly listening. Trust isn’t built by promising the highest price or the quickest sale; it’s built by proving you understand your client’s goals. How to fix it: Start every valuation with one question: “What does success look like for you in this move?” Then show them how you’ll achieve their definition of success.

The Loneliness of Running Your Own Estate Agency… Running your own business is often sold as ‘the’ dream: freedom, control, and unlimited potential. But let’s talk about the part no one mentions, the nightmare of loneliness. When you are a one person operation, there’s no team to bounce ideas off, no colleagues to share frustrations with, and no one to celebrate the small wins. It’s just you, carrying the weight of every decision, every challenge, and every 3am sleepless night. One way to combat this? Find a mentor. Someone who’s walked the path before you and can offer guidance, support, and encouragement. A mentor won’t just help with strategy; they’ll remind you that you’re not alone in this journey. How? Agents Together can help you find an Estate Agent who has walked that path before you. Don’t underestimate the power of connection—it could make all the difference in those tough moments.

To all the business owners out there… Those challenges that are stressing you out in your business are exactly what make entrepreneurship tough. But you never thought it would be easy, did you? This is what “hard” feels like – and overcoming it is what makes the journey so rewarding.

Estate Agents - Your Marketing Isn’t Working—Here’s Why... If your social media is just a parade of “Just Listed” and “Just Sold” posts, you’re invisible. Homeowners and landlords don’t care about your latest listing. They care about how you solve their problems. Your marketing should: Educate. Inspire. Build trust. Right now though, it’s just noise.

House Sellers aren’t just paying for your service. They’re paying for your confidence. Show it.

Agree or Disagree with me?

I find it fascinating hardly any estate agents talk about the property market and house prices etc on their social media. Everyone loves to talk about the property market—except, strangely, the people who work in it. It’s all listings, listings, listings, listings, look what we have sold, listings, listings . Why do estate agents talk about themselves instead of what clients actually care about? Can anyone tell me?
