Dear Technical Terry,<\/strong><\/p>\n

My clients just asked me for some market statistics. The statistics module on RMLSweb<\/em> and Market Action<\/em> are crazy good, but I just need some simple, easy to understand stats. Any ideas?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dear SS,<\/p>\n

Of course I have some ideas! There are two really easy places to see and\/or print some stats that your clients may find compelling.<\/p>\n

One: when you run a search and scroll down to the “Detail View” tab in your search results. At the bottom of each section is a nice synopsis of the properties contained within the section, with the sections separated by listing status. Here’s what that section looks like:<\/p>\n

\"Simple<\/a><\/p>\n

Quick and easy\u2014but not easy to print.<\/p>\n

If you want to print a simple, yet statistically effective report for your clients choose the “Summary Only” report from your list of report options. Here’s what that simple yet effective report looks like:<\/p>\n

\"Summary<\/a><\/p>\n

The report gives you and your clients great info on some of the basic stats we talk about all the time. Solds, if they are part of your search, even have sale price to list price ratio.<\/p>\n

If neither of these options are good for your needs, have a look at the Statistics menu on the main navigation bar. It gives you many options to compile statistics you and your client may find useful, including the statistical summaries documents<\/a> which compile years worth of Market Action<\/em> data for each published area within the RMLS\u2122 region.<\/p>\n

Do you keep up on the news? It seems REALTORS\u00ae are being accosted when performing showings! There seems to be more and more of it happening. I heard that SentriSmart\u2122, the SentriLock app, has a feature for agent safety. What the heck is that, and how does it work?<\/strong><\/p>\n

TT!<\/p>\n

In fact I do keep up on the news stories about REALTOR\u00ae safety issues around the country. While there are many best practices to use to help your safety as a REALTOR\u00ae<\/a>, SentriSmart\u2122 does provide a resource that may provide you confidence in showing vacant homes or homes to new clients.<\/p>\n

To access and set up the agent safety feature in SentriSmart\u2122, follow these steps:<\/p>\n
