Download our free real estate checklists!
As a real estate agent we know you have to do a lot of juggling… and it’s easy to forget something, or drop it in the cracks. Checklists are a proven system that mega teams and top agents across the country use.
Below are buyer and seller checklists for you as a real estate agent. Like a coming soon ckecklist, or a new buyer checklist.
That folder system is good, but personally I found when they were stapled to a folder... they could get easily forgotten about. So that’s why I used the poster style. I had 4 printed and pinned up on my office wall for the entire team to see and use. Above is what the poster style looks like. The 4 we used were; the new buyer checklist, buyer close checklist, new listing checklist and the seller close checklist.
Many agents are more comfortable with paper, but you can download these checklists and import them directly into your database. *Most databases don’t have a checklist feature, so I bet most will still enjoy the paper system. Use whatever works with you. Real estate agent templates and examples to download:
We made different versions for different brands too: Want to copy & paste? These lists will get you started: Coming Soon Checklist:
New Listing Checklist:
Open House Checklist:
Seller Close Checklist:
New Buyer Checklist:
Buyer Close Checklist:
These are just a start. You should have things to add to the list that’s unique to you, your business, the market you are in and the required paper and procedures. I suggest reviewing these with your manager and team to brainstorm and add your own spin on things. I hope you use out of these for years to come and I see them pinned to your wall one day. I know they helped me.

When I was new to the business I was fortunate to get cold leads calling me right away (Internet leads). It was both amazing and a total disaster at the same time. I’d have scrap paper with random notes written all over the place. Many sheets had the notes from multiple calls. I would scribble outlines to group the notes. I’m sure you can relate.
I also didn’t have a database… so follow up was 100 per cent by memory (not a good thing). So I thought investing in a proper CRM (contact management system) would be the fix. The problem was I’d still be answering calls when I wasn’t at a computer or logged in… so most of the time I was back to using paper.
Having a real database is important. I’m not saying this replaces it… but it is a structured way to have the first conversation. Hand the sheet off to your admin, or add them to the database after. But on the call you need to be “in the conversation” and basic pen and paper will always win the race for most agents.
I pre-typed this questionnaire and had it broken down into the main sections. I printed off photocopies – left some in the car, some at home and some at the office. You can start using this today.
Ever notice when you get inbound calls you’re not expecting it? You’re doing something else and not prepared for the call. This “lead capture” sheet will quickly get you back in the game.
The buyer/seller starts the conversation, but you control it by asking questions (the scripts). When the questions are laid out in front of you it’s easy, especially when you are just filling in the blanks.
I always started with the buyer section first because it’s easier to get people talking (dreaming). During that part I’d listen for appropriate timing to ask the qualifying questions (when they want to move, are they working with a real estate agent, are they financed)? If they were selling, you have a place for that too, along with all the questions needed.
No sign call is ever the same, so you need to have a real conversation and not sound like a nervous robot. Using a lead capture sheet allows you to organically make notes as the conversation is taking place.
Have you ever noticed that conversations flow back and forth from buying to qualifying to selling and you only get little parts here and there? It’s not like you can say, “Look man, I’m not done the buyer script so we can’t move on.”
No, you take what you get and bring them back if you can. Lead sheets are great for that. You sound professional, it keeps you on track and it forces you to ask the hard questions you might otherwise skip, such as are they financed and do they have an agent. You don’t want to scare them off, right?
Go ahead and download a copy. There is also a video about this on the homepage at remonline.com. Watch the video and leave comments to tell me what you think about it.
This video shows you how to use this simple system. It also has a cool follow-up trick for those of you who don’t have a database (and those who do, but don’t use it).
