Be there during the research phase
Buyers spend 8-10 months researching before contacting an agent
Own the relationship 10 months before competition
Zillow owns the platform, not the relationship
"I had a buyer use my calculator for 6 months. Emails every 3 weeks. Nothing back. Then one day: 'Hey, I'm ready to see homes.' Closed 45 days later. $18K commission."
