Six practical guides for Realtors at every experience level. Pair them with Realtor Assist to get tailored next steps for your property and local market.

THE EVERYDAY REALTOR PLAYBOOK

Six stages. Better execution.

Use these as working checklists—not a licensing course or substitute for supervising-broker instructions. Requirements vary by state and brokerage.

01 / GET READY

Build your operating foundation

Get your client onboarding process, calendar, documents, and brokerage systems organized before leads become urgent.

Field checklist
  • Confirm license, brokerage affiliation, and approved forms for your jurisdiction.
  • Set up compliant contact records and permission-based follow-up.
  • Document agency disclosures, signatures, and supervision requirements.
  • Track every deadline using the contract and your brokerage's process.
02 / WIN THE LISTING

Run a strong seller consultation

Walk sellers through goals, pricing research, staging, property condition, disclosures, photography, and the marketing schedule.

Field checklist
  • Confirm seller goals and target timeline.
  • Research verified current MLS comparables, not unverified or invented sales.
  • Discuss observable issues; refer technical concerns to qualified inspectors.
  • Obtain required listing and media permissions.
03 / SHOW THE HOME

Prepare the property experience

Use your live camera with Realtor Assist for on-site observation, then create a photo-led listing walkthrough with human accuracy review.

Field checklist
  • Photograph each space in a logical, approved sequence.
  • Flag visible concerns without claiming to perform an inspection.
  • Verify generated footage against actual property details.
  • Check local MLS and brokerage rules on digital alterations and labeling.
04 / FIND THE BUYER

Execute a listing marketing plan

Combine videos, listing pages, opt-in email, social promotion, broker relationships, yard signs, and neighborhood outreach.

Field checklist
  • Build a property-specific 30-day campaign in Marketing Plan.
  • Use truthful property facts and approved advertising language.
  • Apply fair housing rules to imagery, targeting, and descriptions.
  • Track inquiries, showings, offers, and the marketing channels that produce them.
05 / MANAGE OFFERS

Negotiate with a clear process

Organize offer terms, contingencies, earnest money, financing, inspections, and response dates—always subject to governing contracts and your broker.

Field checklist
  • Present and document offers in line with legal and broker obligations.
  • Check dates, financial terms, contingencies, addenda, and signatures.
  • Refer legal interpretation or disputes to qualified counsel.
  • Use written confirmation and a transaction milestone tracker.
06 / CLOSE & GROW

Turn service into referrals

Keep closing tasks visible, ensure appropriate handoffs, and maintain respectful, permission-based post-close contact.

Field checklist
  • Reconcile open tasks with lender, title/closing team, broker, and parties.
  • Secure sensitive information and avoid transmitting payment instructions through unverified channels.
  • Archive documents according to required retention policies.
  • Request feedback and permitted referrals after the transaction.
