Wow! Mark Schlauder is thinking out of the box! Finding opportunity in the doom and gloom!
Just the kind of agent we need to be networking and brain storming with.
The following e-mail came in from him yesterday:

Dear Cal Carter , It's Mark Schlauder here of Exit Realty in Gulf Shores, Alabama. I want to share a secret with you that I have kept to myself until now -- the secret to how I sold over 100 homes in Baldwin County Alabama in the last 6 months (and by the way none of them were short sales or foreclosures... and none of them were listed in the MLS!). I have been a top producer in Baldwin County, Alabama for the last 2 years, but in 2008 I am on track to close more than double what I closed in the last two years combined! Furthermore it didn't cost me anything so I am going to share it with you for free. The secret is an exclusive national network of agents called Maverick Investor Group that uses an advanced buyer aggregation technique. Maverick negotiates directly with developers for bulk quantity discounts and favorable terms that are not available to the public. They only structure deals in the hottest markets in the country (like Mobile Alabama and the Eastern Shore), and then present them as private buying opportunities via national conference call. They have been able to negotiate the best deals in the entire Go-Zone because of their collective buying power. For the exclusive group of agents that are part of this network, you get the opportunity to refer your buyers onto private Maverick conference calls to listen to the deal presentation, and if your buyers close you get paid the full 3% referral fee. You do almost no work, just blast out an email and get your clients on the call. You also get your buyers access to the best deals in the Go-Zone, for which they will thank you (these deals are not listed and not available to the public). Participating in the Maverick Referral Network does not cost anything, but Access is by Invitation Only. Since I am in the network, I can refer other agents. And today, I would like to extend an invitation for you to join. This doesn't obligate you to anything, just gets you and your clients access to the best deals. I am sharing this with you because there is no competition between us. We are nearing the end of the Alabama Go-Zone which expires at the end of 2008, and it takes 60-90 days to build a pre-construction home, so there is not much time left. The more buyers you bring, the more collective buying power we all have, the better deals we can get, and that benefits everyone. BUT this offer is only good for this week. The next Maverick Call is coming up on September 17th. In order to get access you MUST register by Friday September 12, 2008. To get exclusive access this week: 1) Click on this web link: http://www.maverickinvestorgroup.com/referral_intro 2) Enter the Priority Registration Code: "Mark Schlauder" (because access is by invitation only) Maverick will sign a referral fee/non-solicitation agreement with you (ensuring you will get paid 3% and that they will not circumvent you or solicit your buyers for any future deals). Then they will send you out a hook email that you can forward on to your buyers inviting them to the big mega-call on September 17th. Trust me, you won't want to miss it... this is your chance to ratchet up your transactions before the end of the year. If you have any questions about Maverick or about my experience as part of the network, you can feel free to call me on my cell phone at 251-269-9677. Warm Regards, Mark Schlauder |
