To Gift or Not To Gift that is the Question!

As a realtor or mortgage broker, you are always faced with a Dilemma, Do I give a closing gift or not? Josh Flagg from Million Dollar Listing gives great tips on closing gifts.

I bet you’ve tried all the usual gifts the same humdrum gifts your competitors are using, Flower Baskets, Cookies, Candy or Chocolate Gift Baskets, Wine/Champagne/Alcohol, Restaurant or Mall Gift Cards, etc.

Those are all nice gifts, but not if you are in a competitive market and wanting people to remember you. Your goal is to gain repeat business from your clients and gain the referrals of their family, friends and neighbors.

3 Great Tips About Closing Gifts from Josh Flagg

  1. They are a great conversation starter – If there is one thing we know about new homeowners, it is that they love to talk about the experience. Of course, it is mainly about the drama involved in finding and getting the house, but a great way to be weave yourself into that story is to place a memory point with a well thought out closing gift.
  2. Keep it personal – It doesn’t have to be an extravagant gift. In fact, most clients are much more impressed with something that shows you had only them in mind. A personalized Fruit Tree from PlantOGram.com is a tasteful, inexpensive gift that will draw comments, and give them a chance to mention your name. Don’t make the mistake of going out and buying a handful of Home Depot gift cards, and passing them out like a Vegas blackjack dealer! It’s a waste of money and it shows that you didn’t feel like putting any thought into the gift at all. Besides, how much should the card be…? You don’t want to look cheap, but if it is a high figure, are you saying you expect them to break the bank with repairs?
  3. They help cement a long-term relationship – Professional mortgage expert, David Reinholz feels the closing gift lets your client know that they are “more than just a number or a means to a paycheck.” He knows that they want to feel unique and special – more importantly, they will remember you as an important player in this shared experience when you make them feel that way.
