Real estate is a fast-paced industry, and if your to-do list is longer than your list of properties, it’s time to reevaluate how you’re spending your day. Here are five tell-tale signs that you might be doing too much—and why it’s time to call in a real estate runner to help lighten your load.
1. You’re Late for Showings Because You Were Setting Up an Open House
We’ve all been there: you’re rushing to get an open house ready, but you still need to meet a client in 20 minutes for a property showing across town. It’s a stressful situation, and trying to manage both can lead to cutting corners or making mistakes.
Why put yourself in that position? A real estate runner can set up your open house while you focus on showing homes to your clients, ensuring that both tasks are completed smoothly and on time.
2. You Missed a Lead Because You Were Delivering Documents
Leads are the lifeblood of a real estate agent’s business, and missing one can be costly. But sometimes, you might find yourself driving across town to deliver important documents when a potential lead is waiting for your response.
With a real estate runner on your team, you don’t have to choose between chasing leads and fulfilling paperwork. Let us handle document delivery while you focus on growing your business.
3. You Haven’t Had a Day Off in Weeks
Work-life balance is tough when you’re constantly juggling client demands, showings, paperwork, and administrative tasks. If you haven’t taken a day off in weeks, it’s a sign you’re taking on too much.
Hiring a runner to handle the time-consuming tasks can help you reclaim some personal time. We can take care of the errands so you can take care of yourself.
4. You’re Constantly Double-Booking
If your schedule is overflowing with back-to-back appointments, you’re likely to find yourself double-booking meetings or running late. By outsourcing tasks like sign installation, field inspections, or open house prep, you can better manage your time and avoid the stress of being spread too thin.
5. You’ve Become a “Jack of All Trades” (and Master of None)
As a real estate agent, your expertise lies in selling homes—not installing lockboxes, handling mobile notary services, or setting up open houses. If you’re doing it all, you may find that you’re spreading yourself too thin, and that can affect your productivity and client relationships.
Outsourcing these tasks to a professional real estate runner allows you to focus on your strengths, while we handle the nitty-gritty details.
If any of these signs sound familiar, it’s time to consider bringing a real estate runner on board. You don’t have to do everything yourself to be successful—in fact, delegating tasks can be the key to scaling your business and reclaiming your time.
