Real Estate Cycles and Shift in Strategies December 17, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Let's face it, we're in a crash and real estate prices in the United States across multiple markets are in a free fall. Gary Keller, in his newest book, SHIFT, accurately depicts this as a cycle.
But in human terms, this cycle is taking an emotional and mental toll on many of our agents and brokers across the country. The knowledge you will gain from this book will help put some reason and sanity back into your thought process.
For instance, you can learn about:
1. When we can get out of this hole, arguing that local markets may swing faster than national averages.
2. How to start being realistic on pricing.
3. How to start understanding market trends in your area; when inventories start shifting from a buyer's market to seller's and vice versa.
4. How to generate leads outside of your comfort zone [example: I have personally seen Europeans come in and start snatching foreclosures -- they are bringing in the euros. Start leveraging your web contacts in other parts of the world.]
5. Research into other real estate instruments such as other foreclosures, tax liens, etc.
Overall, recommended reading for the real estate agent to the real estate investor -- learn as much as you can about your market to give yourself an edge.

Good but not great December 1, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am glad I bought this book. I bought and enjoyed the Millionaire RE Agent and RE Investor.
That being said, I don't think it is a great book and that's why I gave it 3 stars. I think the author is a little too dependent on scripts and formulas to work your way out of a slump. If he would update it a tad to account for the fact that most consumers are extremely averse to script heavy agents, it would have been better.
But I do like the fact that he is inspiring, and stresses the can-do attitude that hey, no one's coming to help, you have got to do it yourself. I appreciate that inspiration. I wish he would have written more on that.
On the other hand, if you are a less tech heavy agent, you will like his very detailed and practical methods. It is not my cup of tea (yet, maybe the shift will change my mind!).
