Are You Losing Leads to Local Competitors?

You're great at helping clients buy, sell, and invest in real estate — but if you're not showing up in search results, you're missing out on qualified leads ready to act now.

Top Real Estate Challenges We See:

  • You rely on referrals but aren’t consistently getting new calls

  • You're spending on Zillow or Google Ads, but it’s hard to track what’s working

  • Inquiries go cold before you can respond

  • Your competitors are showing up higher on Google and winning listings that should be yours

Industry Reality:

✅ 97% of home buyers begin their search online
✅ 70% of sellers contact the first consultant they find online
✅ Consultants with 50+ Google reviews get 2X more inbound requests than those without

If your real estate business isn't optimized for search, you're leaving listings — and revenue — on the table.



Sign up for HighLevel & take your Real Estate Consultant business to the next level.
