Learn these real estate lead nurturing techniques to follow up & build rapport with potential clients before meeting in person. The key to this delicate practice is to always try to add value to the potential client. Most buyers are in the “just looking” stage early on in the home buying process, so it’s important to initially focus your communications on helping them with their online home search. As you help them to search more effectively, opportunities to meet in person and move them along in the process will start to present themselves.
