Book excerpt: What Is PropertyAgentSecrets? PropertyAgentSecrets is NOT just another "how to" book on property marketing or motivation. It is NOT about getting more inquiries on your property listings - yet these secrets will help you get exponentially MORE inquiries than you've ever experienced before. It is NOT about increasing your appointments or closings - yet these secrets will increase your appointments and closings exponentially MORE than reposting credits daily on PropertyGuru or online portals ever could. PropertyAgentSecrets is A SHORTCUT. Low inquiries and closings are symptoms of a much greater problem that's a little harder to see (that's the bad news, but a lot easier to fix (that's the good news).

You now have access to all of the Processes, Secrets and Scripts that we used to transform hundreds of property agents' careers and helped free up their time for family, weekends and vacations. "I first approached Yasser in 2017 as I hated Technology & I'm not IT savvy. I found him to be a genuine, caring person who gets real results for his agents. I've been using his system for about a year, and impressively, I have managed to change the way I do business without using any of the old school methods. This is why I NEVER had to chase a single prospect since getting his system, because they came to ME fast and furious. And because of Yasser's highly effective techniques, I managed to SELL 2 landed homes in under 30 DAYS each! I'm very happy. My only regret was that I did not have enough time and manpower to follow up, as I'm very sure I could have sold even MORE homes. This is the only TOTAL system for all property agents in Singapore that I know of. I highly recommend Yasser's system if you hate technology or have no time for Marketing." - FRED TEO, KFPN There is something for EVERYONE: You're thinking of JOINING Real Estate; Once you get your license, this will be the PLAYBOOK and mentoring you need to build and grow your new career the right way by copying the success of those who succeeded before you and avoid the tears, blood and sweat of all those who failed!

This book will teach you how to hire Team Members and go on to DOMINATE your Marketplace without all of the headaches that come with managing People! Yasser khan was a struggling property agent back in 2008 who transformed his realtor business in only under 11 months to multiple six figures after abandoning all old-school methods. For more than 10 years now, he's been quietly helping Property Agents quadruple their inquiries, appointments and sales by systemising their entire business and by leveraging Marketing, Technology & People.
