Chapter 4: The Weekly Market Update System

Class Overview In this class, Bob Latigona teaches real estate agents how to use weekly market updates as a simple, repeatable prospecting system. Agents will learn how to share useful local market information with their sphere so they can stay visible, build trust, and create more real estate conversations. This class shows agents how to move beyond random posting and start using local, timely, and helpful market information as a reason to reach out every week. By choosing one town, pulling a few important numbers, explaining what those numbers mean, and following up with people who engage, agents can turn market knowledge into conversations, referrals, and long-term business.
