Two Days Left Before an 8 Day Retreat — How Do I Stop Working???

with one comment

Now that Wednesday is officially over I now only have two business days to wrap up a neverending barrage of hungry clients wanting to do business with me.

Let’s start by saying that what I do in real estate is rare and my Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is at an all time high.

What I do…

For 6 years I have running a lease option (aka rent to own) business in Las Vegas, NV. Although I have partners/competitors in this business I tend to be the one who moves the most homes. Usually at least twice what the other four partners do, combined. Fifteen homes lease optioned this year alone and we don’t use the MLS. Only private advertising.

I also run and operate a bank bulk REO business. Somehow people are finding me online or being referred to me. Tonight alone I got three phone calls of people who are anxiously wanting to buy over $500,000,000 in real estate and that is from each source who has multiple sources. Since I don’t make public who my inventory sources are this requires me to be in complete control of the operation.

I also run an affiliation with credit repair and building corporate credit.

Lastly, I have just started a Driver Watch program which is similar to the “How’s My Driving?” decals you see on commercial vehicles but is geared toward parents of teens, children of the elderly, sponsors of AA DUI offenders, and many other potential sets of clients.

In all of these I am th sole contact source.

This week alone…

So far this week I have had five lease option clients showing seven homes. Putting one under contract and one pending. And that is only the past three days.

I have also coordinated four conference calls and will be doing two more tomorrow morning which were initiated at 7:00 PM tonight as I did not know these potential bulk reo buyers before then.

I am also coordinating a person who just lost 9 homes to foreclosure in getting his new corporation set up so he can buy a home either through his personal or newly established corporate credit.

Two Days left…

On Saturday I fly out to San Francisco to start a seven day retreat on building personal and business goals. Also, to make one more balanced and well rounded.

When you get a call at 4:00 pm to show a home at 5:00 pm to do a contract by 6:00 pm and they are moving into the home within 2 days and you just pocketed $3000 and this is happening almost daily now, how do you turn off your cell phone and computer for 8 days?

I know what i will be learning will be invaluable, so how do you turn off years of building a business (some of it is being forwarded — the lease option business — to someone who is a Realtor but doesn’t know really how to do what I do).

Would anyone else be worried about the missed business? I mean the REO could bring in $100,000s of dollars even if only getting 0.25% of a sale. And finally getting legit buyers and sellers after over a year of ruling people out.

Any support matters …

How would you handle this scenario?
