SHIFTS happen?

Both can transform your business and your life. You can change your thinking, your focus, your actions, and, ultimately, your results to get back in the game and ahead of the competition. The tactics that jump-start your business in tough times will power it forward in good times. No matter the market-shift!

. .

SHIFT explores twelve proven strategies for achieving success in any real estate market, including

.
    .
  • Master the Market of the Moment: Short Sales, Foreclosures, and REOs.
  • Create Urgency: Overcoming Buyer Reluctance.
  • Re-Margin Your Business: Expense Management.
  • Find the Motivated: Lead Generation.
  • Expand the Options: Creative Financing.

5 out of 5 stars Must have book for any Realtor!   December 1, 2008
This book just might be the best book ever written about Real Estate. It is current and up to date about what REALLY works in the market today. It might save your career!


3 out of 5 stars Good but not great   December 1, 2008
  0 out of 1 found this review helpful

I am glad I bought this book. I bought and enjoyed the Millionaire RE Agent and RE Investor.

That being said, I don't think it is a great book and that's why I gave it 3 stars. I think the author is a little too dependent on scripts and formulas to work your way out of a slump. If he would update it a tad to account for the fact that most consumers are extremely averse to script heavy agents, it would have been better.

But I do like the fact that he is inspiring, and stresses the can-do attitude that hey, no one's coming to help, you have got to do it yourself. I appreciate that inspiration. I wish he would have written more on that.

On the other hand, if you are a less tech heavy agent, you will like his very detailed and practical methods. It is not my cup of tea (yet, maybe the shift will change my mind!).

The market is changing, and Realtors need to stay focused, on task, and must adapt to the shift! The book is well divided into sections focusing on the attitudes an agent must have and the changes they must make.


5 out of 5 stars Very well thought out   November 17, 2008

This is a very well done book. It outlines shifting your thinking and shifting your business model to take advantage of changes in the marketplace. There is a section on short sales and foreclosures. Overall, a very good book.


5 out of 5 stars Energized by the SHIFT   October 30, 2008
SHIFT: "I have been professionally energized since I was introduced to the book called SHIFT by Gary Keller. In fact, I consider myself very fortunate to be one of the first among my peers to learn, practice, and implement the Twelve Tactics for Tough Times. In my 30+ years of residential real estate, I'm proud that I have weathered every cycle in the past, but today's circumstances are different... and this is the tool that I need now." Brad Osborne, CENTURY 21 Realty Group I
