Ron’s weekly lesson this week is all about how to properly use a Virtual Assistant. With production direction, a VA can take care of the day-to-day tasks that you can’t ignore. Every day tasks like calling leads and filling out lead property information sheets have to be done or you don’t have a business, but that does not mean they have to be done by you! Check out what else Ron says a VA can do for you, and don’t forget to leave your comments below on how a VA has helped you!

You are so funny Mr. Ron, lol!
It’s really impossible to argue against a VA.
As soon as I can afford it, I will have one or two. Need to get 2-3 deals under my belt.
Really good info, alot to this VA stuff!
Lots of great information about VA’s for selling!
To anyone who has the VA Prgram, with the $497 program, how many FSBO leads could be expected per month?
Hearing the numbers behind the math is really helpful. Its a good benchmark to know that 37% of the sheets come back with a ‘yes’ to some sort of terms.
It’s also crazy that 20% of the sellers ar never reached after 3 calls.
It is crazy but true. I have been making all of my calls up to this point, and you would be surprised how many will advertise a property and not answer the phone. Not only that, they won’t even return calls when you leave a message. I don’t understand it. I am about to hire a VA. It will make life so much easier.
Really good stuff
I used a similar system to the IVR to sell a rehab I completed. The ads drove people to the house which had a sign in the yard. Prospective buyers would call the sign in the yard to get the lockbox code and get added to the buyers list. The application to buy the house was on the cabinet in the kitchen and was faxed by the prospective buyers to me. That was my first exposure to automation and it was great!
WHAT WAS THE NAME OF THE SERVICE YOU USED, I MIGHT WANT TO LOOK INTO USING THAT TOO! SOUNDS EFFECTIVE
Hi, Bryan :
What was the ” similar system ” that u used ?
Rachel
Thank-you for your lesson- #133 How to Use A VA. Gives some hope for me – having the tendonitis family. Plows the disadvantages away & brings hope with the I can/could do family.
Makes sense to me
Sounds like good information. This is a great way to get started.
Using VA & PAT live is the path to the true freedom, I guess.
Sound great using VA to start!
the VA calls and closes and much work in between, and I just make decision on who is the best to work with, and maybe a follow up after the initial call?
too good to be true. this must cost extra to get all these things done.
The system outlined is a lot of steps. I was a RE Broker for many years and when I listed a home I had all these steps and more to get the house on the market. A VA is an assistant and a real value. Thanks Ron!
Can’t wait to have some cash to be able to hire a VA.
Me too.
YOU SAID IN THE VIDEO, THERE WOULD BE A LINK AT THE BOTTOM OF THE VIDEO, BUT THERE WASN’T ANY.
CAN YOU PLEASE SEND ME THE LINK.
THANKS
ROB L.
We use Pat Live now and love it. Just signed up for VA service and are looking forward to someone else screening our sellers.
Another very good informational video! I am a total newby and eager to also have the funds to hire a VA and implement the programs. Thanks Ron!
Very helpful.
Just got a VA. It’s great.
at 5:50 in the video, Ron says, “let Pat Live take calls from your Sellers” but does he mean “….calls from your Buyers” ? Or are we running free ads to find Sellers too?
Thanks for answer.
Use Patlive for….people that are wanting to sell their homes, like FSBO. You’re buying. That is for patlive. For finding sellers…run free ads too. Buyers(for homes you are selling) , on the other hand, are calling your IVR. Hopefully this helps.
What’s the monthly fee for this service
Hi Ron,
Great info here. I was wondering if you or ahem, perhaps the VA team can critical check some numbers on how much VA time breakdown would be needed to make a complete deal using your highly trained VAs.
For example, 10 calls/hr for FSBO’s, generate 50 prospects/hr. Expect 30% prospect qualified to deal with terms.
Then I would call to setup contract with attorney.
For buyer side, how much time should they spend and how to do it to build buyer list for seller listings?
IE the case for your trained VAs is strong so long someone new knows how to use them, exactly what they will do (eg over their shoulder breakdown would be really helpful) and how long it takes? Can we realistically allocate 20hrs/m of your VAs to close 2 deals monthly (pretty houses)? How long for flipping wholesale property? Thanks a lot Ron, and love your down to earth style in your videos!
Thank You I needed this video!!!
I can’t wait to be able to use the VA service. I am working on a couple of deals now and calling as many FSBOs as I can. It does get overwhelming though at times. As some people have mentioned, I would like to be able to close a deal before signing up for VA service just because of the cost. On the other hand, the chances of me actually finding a buyer and closing the deal are probably greatly improved with a VA. Thanks for the video!
If you’re interested in having a VA, please call our office at 888-840-8389 and ask for VIP Services. They’ll be happy to get you going with one of our in-office VAs.
I’m working on a deal now if all turns out ok I’m thinking about going with the VA service. Thanks Ron.
I’d need one
I love the VA service. It has become an irreplaceable element in my business.
I am now doing the acclamation with mine and getting used to to working on my business instead of in my business.
VA’s are the way to go
Sounds like the only way to fly…
Thanks R.L..
I’m working on doing my first deal then I will be able to hire a VA and also get Pat Live for my business
This sounds good – VA’s are inevitable in this business! They enable you free yourself for the actual investment decision! I am in!
Just what I was looking for
good video, good audio, good info

Great video on VA services overview on services with for buyer info.
Thanks Ron
Someone told me that I could get a VA temporarily for 5 hours to call some leads. Anyone know anything about that?
VA Services look very interesting.
Very smart to have different VA’s do the different types of tasks because some people are computer people and other’s are people people and don’t mind calling prospects.
This is an eye opener! I thought that the VA’s only task was to fill out the property information sheet.
music to my ears.
VA’s come in handy in every aspect and area of life…
I’m fast learning that the less I do, the more I make if I delegate to qualified people to do the minutia. I’m going to do my first few deals all myself so I can see what it all entails and very quickly hire VA’s to take over.
It makes so much sense to use a VA, especially after watching this video several times. I personally want to do the actions that I’ll use the VA for eventually, but know how valuable it will be to ultimately use a VA because I’m fast realizing how valuable time is, thanks to Ron’s videos.
Though I’m doing everything myself now just to see what it all entales, I’m really looking forward to using the VAs.
The question I was going to ask today is what the whole video did explain. The best advice always comes from the experience teacher.
Thanks a lot.
