I met a nice lady at open house.  I sent a thank you note after the open house.  I'd send a calendar once and year and we'd chat for a few minutes annually.  

Seven years later, I listed and sold her home.

Yes, sometimes it absolutely works that way. A current buyer has been receiving my newsletter for many years and finally called me.  It's lovely when that happens :)

Just recently a potential seller we'd interviewed with contacted us at almost the 3 year point.  Other than continuing to send them our newsletter we'd had no other contact in the interim.  We're currently looking for the right builder for their new house and then putting their existing home on the market.

David Barr - a few I remember - and a listing and few buyers. As long as you keep them in loop.....they like you, it's just they may not communicate that to you until the time arrives....

Yes.  I keep in touch, and if I lose touch, I'm not hesitant to reach out & reconnect.  I have a loan set to close this coming week as a result of reaching out after losing touch for a couple years.
