As needed... they get weekly reports on activity on the internet sites, they get immediate reports on showing activity as scheduled and as feedback comes in. Really depends on the listing and on the home sellers. I have one client right now who basically said "call me when you have an offer. Otherwise I don't need to see anything."

At the conclusion of EVERY activity.

The conversation is MORE intimate when their is no activity.

It depends on the client and the property. Some take a long time to sell, and the clients are okay with periodic/meaningful updates. Homes are different. Some clients want a play-by-play and some only want to hear from you when there's an offer. Those are things to find out and establish during the listing process.

Whenever there are any updates but minimally every day or so during the first couple weeks and weekly thereafter. Our market is pretty active. I also ask what they would lik

Nathan Gesner - Every week!

At least one a week; it's up to my client...

    I talk to my people at least once per week, minimum.  Even if nothing is happening.

Depends on the client - some want to know every detail, some don't want to know much- unless it's an offer... I ask, then respect their wishes.

They will get weekly reports of Internet traffic to their listing and new listings that have come on the market. I'm certainly willing to share more information if that's not enough (but it's usually plenty).

Once a week, my website sends out an update on Mondays & I call them on Tuesdays to see if they've looked at it. Has internet hits, views, etc & all the new listings or current listings a 1/2 mile around them.

Weekly or more often

As oftens as needed. I like to do it Monday and Fridays and if anything to report in between, am email or call with an update is sent

Weekly, unless they have a different request. Some just want to hear "We have an offer"!

Often.

Weekly and the day after a showing.

My sellers get weeklyl updates from me re: market activity and any changes in the presentation of direct comps.

As desired by the client.

Once a week minimum.

I have different updates I send via email( OH results, week showings, market update 1/week), I also call a seller min 1/week. 

Nathan,

We actually kept a spreadsheet and met once a week.  A

At the very least weekly and daily whenever showing and feedback occur.

When I was working as a VA, all of my clients sent formal weekly reports outlining all of the marketing activities that were done that week, online stats, etc. And all of them touched base with their sellers personally each time there was viewing feedback, or other item that needed to be passed on right away. 

When you're not in regular contact, as a seller myself, I would start to question in my mind if my agent is really doing anything to sell my property. I would start thinking about finding somone else to represent me. So, keeping in touch frequently is important.

About once a week.

I used to do this every Monday, and not sure why, as Monday is so busy.  I now update them as things happen.

I like to give market updates monthly. 

As needed and at least weekly, even if it's to say "nothing new, escrow's on track".  Adjusting for the needs of the particular client.  Some want much more frequent comms, others only if there is a problem.

Every week to 10 days or more often if something is happening I need to report.

I only update my clients when there is something to update.  Who has time to read empty update reports?

Apx one a week unless decided otherwise.

At least once a week or as the client prefers.

This should be done weekly.

Depends. Mostly weekly.

I have a practice that I tell them every Monday I will tell them the good the bad the ulgy.

In today's real estate market most of the time listing agents do not even need to update the seller on any activity. Most homes are sold in 1 day. It is usually the seller who doesn't respond to the buyer right away as he's accumulating more offers.

As needed and necessary.  Homes sell pretty quickly in my market ... I like to leave a listing on the market at least 7 days.  

whenever there was a showing, I would communicate.... nothing that exceeded one week...

Typically, monthly unless something happens where they need to be advised more often.

On a regular basis.

During our initial meet-up, they are briefed and content. Updates of importance, progress or some bites on the house bait come when they are necessary. Until then, all go about there business

As often as possible. At least once a week or more to keep them updated.

As often as needed - if there is traffic caily, they get updated daily

As often as possible.

Buyer feedback when received.

At least once a week.
