How to Choose a Top Real Estate Coach that Works for You

Just because a coach is popular or trending online does not mean they will work for you. Here is a proven four-step process that top agents use to choose the right and best real estate coaches:

Step 1: Learn the Real ROI Real Estate Coaches Offer Agents

The first step to choosing the best real estate agent coach is to learn the true return on investment (ROI) of a good real estate coach. Many agents sign up for coaching and are then disappointed when they don’t learn “secret” lead generation or marketing strategies. But that’s not what real estate coaching is for! 

Real estate coaching helps agents stay on track and feel motivated. It’s like getting help to do better at a game. Sometimes, it’s hard to see how to do better by yourself, so it’s good to have someone outside the game help you see what’s working and what’s not.

Step 2: Discover Your Sales Personality & MVV

Smart real estate agents and coaches know that being good at one thing is important. Before picking a coach, you must determine what you are good at. If you are new and finding it hard, don’t worry, but it’s crucial for making your own brand. For example, if you are shy but good with technology, you might not be good at cold calling, but you could be good at using Facebook ads or making websites appear on Google. Before picking a coach, you must know what your sales personality is and what skills you bring to the table.

Once you know your sales personality, take the time to work on your mission, vision, and values. Knowing where you want to be in five years (vision), how you plan to get there (mission), and what’s most important to you (values) will make choosing a real estate coach much easier.

Step 3: Decide on a Coaching Budget

Remember to think carefully about choosing a coach. Some agents fall for expensive coaches who promise to multiply their income, while others choose the cheapest option. Instead, find out what different coaches charge and decide how much you can afford to spend every month to improve your career. Set specific goals to achieve to justify the expense. For example, if you decide on $300 a month, figure out how many extra deals you’ll need to close to make that expense worthwhile.

Step 4: Research Coaches Who Work for Your Sales Personality, MVV & Budget

Now that you know your sales personality, MVV, and budget, take the time to research a few coaches to see if they’re a good fit. While this article includes information on pricing and sample coaching materials, you’ll want to get on the phone with a few coaching companies to really test the waters.

Methodology: How We Chose the Best Real Estate Coaches 

Since there seems to be a real estate coach behind every rock these days, finding a fair way to pick the best coaches was pretty tricky. To make the process somewhat more egalitarian, we used the following criteria to rate coaching companies and individual coaches:

• Size and industry reputation: While the size of a coaching company does not always mean they’re better, coaching is a highly competitive industry, so survival is difficult. If a company manages to not only survive but thrive over many years, chances are they are doing something right. 
• Successful former clients: Next, we looked at the number and success of former clients. While we couldn’t get examples for every coaching program, those with a repeated track record of successful former agents tell us they are helping their clients. 
• Adoption of the latest technology: This is a big one and one of the reasons some very famous coaching programs did not make our list. The real estate industry has changed dramatically over the last few years, and to compete, coaching programs need to update their lessons to reflect the latest methods of generating leads and marketing an agent’s business. 
• Agent reviews: While most reviews can be taken with a grain of salt, a coaching program with lots of positive feedback from former clients will almost always be high quality. 
• Quality of scripts and training videos: Finally, we looked at sample scripts and training videos for these coaches. High-quality scripts and training videos generally mean high-quality coaching and training. 

Bringing It All Together

After evaluating several candidates, we have selected the top real estate coaches for 2024. These coaches excel at assisting real estate professionals in succeeding in a challenging market.
