Therefore, it can be difficult for a Realtor to convince a cold prospect to sign a new agreement with them. Typically, this requires excellent follow-up and perseverance in order to convert these listings. However, due to the rejection that one may face, sometimes it can hardly seem worth it.
Josh Schoenly of Retechulous, LLC says, Our goal was to create a system which would integrate online tools in order to better track and manage follow-ups. We realized that this was the biggest hurdle that most real estate professionals faced when contacting expired listings. As a result, we invented the Expiromatic platform.
According to Schoenly, this system helps streamline the entire process from finding listings to getting in contact with the seller. Very simply, property addresses are inputted into a letter generator, and each listing is given a unique personalized URL (PURL). Letters can then be printed out along with a link to the corresponding website for that address. These are then evenly distributed in a follow-up folder to be submitted at specified intervals.
Schoenly continues, Once the seller receives the letter, they will discover that a unique website has been created for their specific property. This tends to generate a lot of curiosity with expired listings, and causes prospects to visit the site for more information. Additionally, Expiromatic will automatically track when that seller visits the URL. This indicates to the agent that there is some level of interest in the offer.

Asia stocks get hit after China rate cut, Fed - Marketwatch
By Sarah Turner and V. Phani Kumar, MarketWatch
HONG KONG (MarketWatch) — Asian shares skidded Friday after China’s unexpected interest rate cut ahead of this weekend’s economic data drew attention to its slowing growth trajectory, and after Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke didn’t indicate further easing was in the offing.
The day’s biggest losses were seen in Tokyo, where the Nikkei Stock Average /quotes/zigman/5986735 JP:100000018 -2.09% tumbled 2.1% as jittery investors took profits after a 3-day rally and before the weekend, in the absence of a hint that the Fed stands ready to boost its asset purchases.
“I think the direction of the markets now reflect that nobody expects globally coordinated policy support for the markets. And that’s what it would take to turn [markets] around,” said Ben Collett, head of Japanese equities at Louis Capital Markets.
Bernanke testifies
Chairman Ban Bernanke tells Congress the Fed will act if Europe stresses get out of hand.
“The only way to make money in this market is to take profit very, very early... Trying to catch the bottom of this market is like trying to catch a bolt of lightning,” he added.
Despite the day’s steep fall, the Nikkei ended the week 0.2% higher, also snapping a nine-week losing streak.
Elsewhere, Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 index /quotes/zigman/1653884 AU:XJO -1.09% and Taiwan’s Taiex /quotes/zigman/1565586 XX:Y9999 -1.14% each gave up 1.1%, while South Korea’s Kospi KR:SEU -0.67% dropped 0.7%.
Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index /quotes/zigman/2622475 HK:HSI -0.94% dropped 0.9% and China’s Shanghai Composite Index /quotes/zigman/1859015 CN:000001 -0.51% lost 0.5%, after the People’s Bank of China late on Thursday cut benchmark lending and deposit rates by a quarter point each. The central bank also let interest rates float lower. Read more on China rate cut.
Su-Lin Ong, strategist at RBC Capital Markets, said that after having expected cuts to Chinese banks’ reserve requirement ratio before any adjustment to interest rates, “the more forceful policy action may well signal greater concern over the current pace of Chinese growth and prospects.”
China is due to release a raft of economic data this weekend, including inflation, industrial production and retail sales for May, as well as monthly trade figures.
Matthew Sherwood, head of investment market research at Perpetual, said that cutting rates “will help on the margin,” but generally “the rate cut hasn’t sparked a good reaction,” as the economy is still slowing, Europe’s still a concern and there remains excess capacity in China.

The only way to make money in this market is to take profit very, very early... Trying to catch the bottom of this market is like trying to catch a bolt of lightning.

Chinese banks declined on concern the PBOC rate cut might hurt their interest-rate margins. Bank of Communications Co. /quotes/zigman/34374 HK:3328 -4.69% /quotes/zigman/527616/quotes/nls/bcmxy BCMXY +0.05% dived 4.7% and Industrial & Commercial Bank of China Ltd. /quotes/zigman/37346 HK:1398 -4.91% /quotes/zigman/529252/quotes/nls/idcby IDCBY 0.00% tumbled 4.9% in Hong Kong; in Shanghai, they gave up 1.3% and 0.7%.
But some Chinese property firms advanced in Hong Kong, with China Overseas Land & Investment Ltd. /quotes/zigman/13931 HK:688 +2.49% /quotes/zigman/13933/quotes/nls/caovf CAOVF -5.23% rising 2.5% and China Resources Land Ltd. /quotes/zigman/14892 HK:1109 +2.05% /quotes/zigman/292800/quotes/nls/crbjy CRBJY 0.00% gaining 2.1%.
“We expect this rate cut to be taken positively by the market with a focus on more highly-geared mass market developers... Yet, we believe that any rally is unlikely to be any more than short-term beneficial for property developer stocks and we would see any rally as an opportunity to exit,” property analysts at Barclays Capital wrote in a report.
Some of Australia’s biggest mining firms, which count China as a major customer, rose after the rate cut, with BHP Billiton Ltd. /quotes/zigman/180893 AU:BHP +1.04% /quotes/zigman/270355/quotes/nls/bhp BHP +1.88% rising 1%, and Rio Tinto Ltd. /quotes/zigman/176317 AU:RIO +0.31% /quotes/zigman/182541/quotes/nls/rio RIO +3.84% gaining 0.3%.
But others declined after a sharp fall in metals futures, with OZ Minerals Ltd. /quotes/zigman/516210 AU:OZL -4.61% losing 4.6%, and PanAust Ltd. /quotes/zigman/157518 AU:PNA -2.83% tumbling 2.8%. Read more on metals.
Metals shares also dropped in Tokyo, with Pacific Metals Co. /quotes/zigman/197048 JP:5541 -5.28% /quotes/zigman/197054/quotes/nls/pfmtf PFMTF -2.70% shrinking 5.3% and Nippon Light Metal Co. /quotes/zigman/196058 JP:5701 -1.85% lost 1.9%.
Japanese exporters — which had helped fuel much of this week’s gains in Tokyo as the yen lost value — were likewise among the notable decliners Friday, with sentiment weighed a bit by pre-market data showing a widening trade deficit. Read more on trade deficit figures.
Toshiba Corp. /quotes/zigman/197500 JP:6758 -5.32% /quotes/zigman/529244/quotes/nls/tosyy TOSYY -0.49% dropped 3.4% and Sharp Corp. /quotes/zigman/197304 JP:6753 -5.31% /quotes/zigman/197313/quotes/nls/shcaf SHCAF -2.04% plummeted 5.3%.
Sony Corp. /quotes/zigman/197500 JP:6758 -5.32% /quotes/zigman/197524/quotes/nls/sne SNE -2.06% surrendered 5.3% after Morgan Stanley downgraded the stock to equal-weight, and as the Nikkei business daily reported that the company may make a major share investment in scandal-hit Olympus Corp. /quotes/zigman/196968 JP:7733 -3.64% /quotes/zigman/196973/quotes/nls/ocpnf OCPNF +10.92%
Panasonic Corp. /quotes/zigman/194943 JP:6752 -1.27% /quotes/zigman/525474/quotes/nls/pc PC +1.18% , also named in the report as a possible buyer for a major Olympus stake, fell 1.3%. Olympus shares dropped 3.6%. See report on possible investment in Olympus.
Renesas Electronics Corp. /quotes/zigman/326601 JP:6723 +18.80% /quotes/zigman/593649/quotes/nls/rnecy RNECY -8.58% rallied 18.8% under such weak market conditions, and in strong trading volume, after a report that the firm will shelve a planned share issue. Read more on Renesas share-issue plan.
