I am going to be talking about President Barack Obama\’s $8000 Tax Credit for the first time home buyer and how real estate agents can use this very useful tax credit to generate real estate buyer leads.
What better way to capture your prospects attention than to enter the conversation they are already having with themselves, or the conversation the media is pounding into their heads day in and day out. We see and hear these messages over and over and over again. So why shouldn\’t we use it to our advantage?
Recently there has been a lot of talk about the new $8000 tax credit for first time home buyer. A lot of people have heard about it but don\’t really know the details, or are unsure what it\’s all about, or even if it helps them.
I developed several strategies using Ugly Yellow Signs around this real estate buyer news event. After testing hundreds of signs with different messages I came up with four that did exceptionally well.
This is one of the actual Ugly Yellow Sign strategies that I am presently running with success…
$8000 Tax Credit
First Time Homebuyers
What You Must Know
Before You Buy
Free Recorded Message

You Home Town Realty
There are four key parts to the success of this Ugly Yellow Sign ad. The first is the Big \”$8000\” dollar amount at the top. Using a dollar amount like this is an attention getter because it sparks curiosity to find out what it\’s all about. Dollar amounts are in every part of our lives so we can\’t help but notice them.
The next line are the words \”First Time Home Buyers\”. This line speaks directly to a specific type of prospect which creates additional interest for those who are even considering the purchase of their first home. On the third line we have
\”What you must know\”
What\’s great about this line is that it builds desire for more information. Now the prospect is thinking \”what don\’t I know\”, and how can the \”not knowing\” potentially hurt me in my home purchase. Or the sense of loss by not knowing how this information can benefit them.
And the fourth line…
\”Before You Buy\” sets a timeline. It creates an urgency to get the information immediately so they don\’t make a mistake or lose an advantage of the home buying process. And of course the \”Free Recorded Message\” which completely removes the fear of your prospect to call and experience what they may see as being harassed.
Ugly yellow signs lend themselves very well to generating buyer leads through timely news events because they are hand written. This means there is no lead or ramp-up time needed to come up with a sign message to attract real estate buyer leads and then send out an order to a sign company and wait several weeks for the order to arrive. If you haven\’t already gotten your yellow corrugated plastic signs I urge you to do so now and start implementing this strategy immediately and get a jump on generating real estate buyer leads now.
