You can go through a number of real estates business plan templates before you write your plan.
The market size, measured by revenue, of the Real Estate Sales and brokerage industry, is $156.2bn in 2021, and the industry is expected to increase by 0.4% in 2021.
Also, the market is changing at a rapid rate and the way people use spaces is changing at a rapid rate too.
Hence, to get on or stay on the higher end of the spectrum you’ll need to upskill and change the way you do business constantly.
But that is a fair trade for the amount of growth and profitability this industry has to offer.

Be specific.
The real estate industry is broad when it comes to work and what you can do. It can either be a source of primary or passive income. At the same time, you might be involved in the industry as an investor, agent, or builder. Decide what you want to do and plan on that basis.
The trends of the real estate business change constantly, hence doing your research and updating it constantly is a crucial part of your profession.
As your knowledge and expertise is your greatest asset in this industry, keep expanding it to stay at the top of things.
Having a team you can build your real estate business with is essential.
Select a group of individuals with a diverse set of talents ranging from good communication skills to brilliant analytical skills. Given the dynamics of the real estate business, you never know what skills might come in handy in your business journey.
As we have constantly discussed, real estate is a dynamic industry. Change is the only constant you’ll have in this business.
Thus, it is important for everything from your plan and way of doing business to be change-friendly.
Gaining funds is one of the major reasons for writing a business plan. And here are a few good funding options for your real estate business:
A traditional loan is one of the most basic options for getting funded. You can opt for this if you have a good credit score.
This is a good option if you don’t want to go through a lot of paperwork.
For this, the lenders look at the rental value of your property and provide a loan on that basis. It is a good option if you don’t want or can’t get a loan based on your personal assets or income.
Above all, it is essential to plan your business to figure out your funding requirements and the right way to fulfill the same.
If you have enough connections, and the ability to find places for people that have attributes they want and need then a real estate business can be a profitable one for you.
A business plan helps you get funded, explain your ideas to the stakeholders of your business, and make better decisions.
Hence, planning is an important aspect of starting or growing your business.

‘Tis the season to create your real estate business plan — and let this FREE downloadable template be your guide! In today’s video, I’ll walk you through how to create your 1-3-5 one-page business plan for your real estate business. I’ll also go over strategies to make your business plan work. To access your free download of the 1-3-5 one-page business plan as well as the action steps form, scroll down to the end of this blog post. Tune in to my video, below, for added insight and guidance.
Here are a few quick tips to consider as you craft your 1-3-5 single-page real estate business plan using our free templates below.
1. The 1-3-5- format is key — one big annual goal at the top, followed by three key focus areas that are broken into five objectives for each.
2. A single page document keeps your business plan streamlined and simple. Gone are the days of large, multi-page business plans that you know you’ll never read again. Keeping everything on one page forces you to focus on what matters and ensures that you will be able to read it again and again throughout the year to re-center yourself.
3. Be SMART. Make your goal , focus areas, and objectives SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound ).
4. Stretch but don’t strain. This goes along with making your goal, focus areas, and objectives SMART. You want to create goals that will stretch you, but you don’t want to stretch so much that you hurt yourself. A lofty goal that is well beyond reach can be very damaging.
5. Create action steps with due dates to help you prioritize. If there’s one supportive document we recommend to your business plan, its an action steps page. These action steps turn goals into actionable to-do items with concrete deadlines.
To download your free single-page real estate business plan template, click the image below! Create your big annual goal, your three key focus areas, and your five key objectives for each focus area.

Are you ready to take your business to the next level? I’ve got just the thing to help you— a foolproof real estate business plan. But before you start thinking, “Ugh, not a boring business plan for real estate,” hear me out. I’ve got a template that’ll make the process a breeze. Plus, I’ll walk you through seven easy steps to craft a plan to put you ahead of the game and have you achieve your wildest real estate dreams in no time. Your success story starts now.
Absolutely. Your real estate agent business plan is your roadmap to success. Without it, you risk losing direction and focus in your real estate career.
A well-crafted business plan helps you:
Think of your real estate business planning as your GPS, guiding you from your current situation to your desired destination. It serves as your North Star, keeping you focused and on track, even in challenging times. Invest the time to create a solid business plan, and you’ll be well-positioned to succeed in your market and achieve your goals. Your future self will appreciate the effort you put in now.
Before we dive into this section, get our real estate business plan template ( click here to go back up to grab it ) and work through it as I explain each section. I’ll give you some direction on each element to help you craft your own business plan.
Let’s start with your “why.” Understanding your purpose for choosing real estate is crucial because it is the foundation for your business plan and guides your decision-making process. Defining your mission, vision, and values will help you stay focused and motivated as you navigate your real estate career.
Mission: Your mission statement defines your purpose for choosing real estate. It clearly states what you’re trying to do, the problem you want to solve, and the difference you want to make.
Ex: Wanda Sellfast’s mission is to empower first-time homebuyers in Sunnyvale, California, to achieve their dream of homeownership and build long-term wealth through real estate.
Vision: Your vision statement focuses on the ultimate outcome you want to achieve for your clients and community.
Ex: Wanda Sellfast’s vision is a Sunnyvale, where everyone has the opportunity to own a home and build a stable, secure future, creating a more inclusive and prosperous community for all.
Values: Your core values are the guiding principles that shape your behavior, decisions, and interactions with clients and colleagues.
Ex: Wanda Sellfast’s core values include:
Clearly defining your mission, vision, and values lays the foundation for a strong and purposeful real estate business that will help you positively impact your clients’ lives and your community.
As a real estate pro, you must deeply understand your local market. This knowledge includes knowing key metrics such as average days on market, average price points, common home styles and sizes, and demographic trends. When someone asks about the market, you should be able to confidently roll those numbers off your tongue without hesitation.
To quickly become the local expert, choosing specific farm areas to focus on is crucial. Concentrate your marketing efforts and build your local knowledge in a handful of communities and neighborhoods.
Some places to do research include:
Once you’ve identified your target areas, start conducting comparative market analyses (CMAs) to familiarize yourself with the properties and trends in those neighborhoods. That way, you’ll provide accurate insights to your clients and make informed decisions in your business.
Remember to research your competition. Understand what other agents working in the same area are doing, who they’re targeting, and identify any gaps in their services. This understanding will help you differentiate yourself from your competition and better serve your clients’ needs. In our real estate business planning template, I ask you to examine and record:
Remember, real estate is hyper-local. While national and state news can provide some context, your primary focus should be on specific needs and trends within your target areas and the clients you want to serve. By thoroughly analyzing your local real estate market, you’ll be well-equipped to make informed decisions, provide valuable insights to your clients, and ultimately build a successful and thriving business.
When creating your real estate business plan, it’s crucial to identify your ideal client. You can’t be everything to everyone, no matter how much you think you should. And trust me, you certainly don’t want to work with every single person who needs real estate advice. By focusing on your ideal client, you’ll create a targeted marketing message that effectively attracts the right people to your business—those you want to work with.
Think of your target market as a broad group of people who might be interested in your services, while your ideal client is a specific person you are best suited to work with within that group. To create a detailed profile of your ideal client, ask yourself questions like:
Answering these questions will help you create a clear picture of your ideal client, making it easier to tailor your marketing messages and services to meet their needs. Consider using this ideal client worksheet , which guides you through the process of creating a detailed client avatar. This will ensure you don’t miss any important aspects of their profile, and you can refer back to it as you develop your marketing plan .
By incorporating your ideal client into your overall business plan, you’ll be better equipped to make informed decisions about your marketing efforts, service offerings, and growth strategies. This clarity will help you build stronger relationships with your clients, stand out from the competition, and ultimately achieve your real estate business goals.
If you want to crush it in this business, you’ve got to think like an entrepreneur. One of the best tools in your arsenal is a SWOT analysis. It sounds ominous, but don’t worry, it’s actually pretty simple. SWOT stands for Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats. It’s all about taking a good, hard look at yourself and your business.
What do you slay at? Maybe you're a master negotiator or have a knack for finding hidden gem properties. Whatever it is, own it and make it the backbone of your strategy. | What's happening in your market that you can use to your advantage? Is there an untapped niche or a new technology that could help you streamline your business? |
We all have weaknesses, so don't be afraid to admit yours. You may not be the best at staying organized or struggle with marketing. The key is to be honest with yourself and either work on improving those areas or hire someone to help you. | There's competition out there, but don't let that keep you up at night. Instead of obsessing over what other agents are doing, focus on your game plan and stick to it. Identifying threats means recognizing things outside your control that could hinder your success, like the slowing real estate market or limited inventory. |
By conducting a SWOT analysis as part of your real estate business plan, you’ll have a clear picture of your current situation and your future goals. And don’t just do it once and forget about it—review and update it regularly to stay on top of your game.
If you want to make it big in real estate, setting goals is an absolute must . But not just any goals— I’m talking about SMART goals . SMART stands for Specific , Measurable , Achievable, Relevant , and Time-bound . It’s like a recipe for success, ensuring your goals are clear, realistic, and have a deadline.
Your SMART goals are an integral part of your overall business plan for real estate. They should be stepping stones to help you achieve your long-term vision and mission. So, analyze your SWOT analysis, ideal client, and market, and craft goals that will help you dominate your niche.
Example Smart Goal: Close 10 transactions in the next quarter.
Make sure to provide as many details as possible behind your goals. Don’t just say, “I want to sell more houses.” That’s too vague. In the example above, the goal is specific: “close 10 transactions.”
If you can’t measure your progress, how will you know if you’re crushing it or falling behind? Ensure your goals have numbers attached to track your success or see where you need to focus more energy. “Close 10 transactions” has a specific number, so you have a way to measure your progress.
I know you’ve got big dreams for your real estate business , but Rome wasn’t built in a day. Set goals that stretch you beyond your comfort zone but are still achievable. This way, you’ll gain confidence, build momentum, and push yourself to new heights. Closing 10 transactions in a quarter is a lofty goal, but it’s still achievable. Your goals should stretch you but still be within your reach.
Relevant goals are the ones that actually move the needle for your business. Sure, becoming the next TikTok sensation might be a lot of fun, but unless TikTok generates most of your clients, it won’t help you close more deals. Your goals should be laser-focused on the activities and milestones that will help you grow your real estate career. In the example above, the goal is specifically related to real estate.
Deadlines are your friend. Without a timeline, your goals are just wishes. Give yourself a precise end date and work backward to create a plan of action. In the example, the deadline for achieving the goal is the end of the current quarter. If you don’t achieve the goal, you can evaluate where the shortfall was and reset for the next quarter.
“Setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible into the visible.”
Tony Robbins
Remember, just like your SWOT analysis, your goals aren’t set in stone. Review and adjust them regularly to stay on track and adapt to business and market changes.
Financial planning might not be your idea of a good time, but this is where your real estate business plan really comes together. Thanks to all the research and strategizing you’ve done, most of the heavy lifting is already done. Now, it’s just a matter of plugging in the numbers and ensuring everything adds up.
In this real estate business plan template section, you’ll want to account for all your operating expenses. That means everything from your marketing budget to your lead generation costs. Don’t forget about the little things (like printer ink, file folders, thank you cards, etc.)—they might seem small, but they can add up quickly. Some typical expenses to consider include:
Once you’ve figured out your expenses, it’s time to reverse-engineer the numbers and determine how many deals you need to close each month to cover your costs. If you’re just starting out and don’t have a track record to go off of, no worries! This planning period allows you to set a budget and create a roadmap for success.
Pro tip: Keep your personal and business finances separate. Never dip into your personal cash for business expenses. Not only will it make tax time a nightmare, but it’s way too easy to blow your budget without even realizing it.
If you’re evaluating your starting assets and realizing they don’t quite match your startup costs, don’t panic. This new insight is just a sign that you must return to the drawing board and tweak your strategy until the numbers line up. It might take some trial and error, but getting your financial plan right from the start is worth it.
You’ve worked hard and created a killer real estate business plan, and you’re ready to take on the world. But remember, your business plan isn’t a one-and-done deal. It’s a living, breathing document that needs to evolve as your business grows and changes. That’s why it’s so important to track your progress and make adjustments along the way.
Here are a few key things to keep in mind:
“It’s the small wins on the long journey that we need in order to keep our confidence, joy, and motivation alive.”
Brendon Burchard
Remember, your real estate business plan is your roadmap to success. But even the best-laid plans need to be adjusted from time to time. By tracking your progress, staying flexible, and keeping your eye on the prize, you’ll be well on your way to building the real estate business of your dreams.
Use this step-by-step guide and the downloadable real estate business plan template to map your business goals, finances, and mission. Identify your ideal client so you can target your marketing strategy. Once you’ve completed all the business plan elements, put them into action and watch your real estate business grow.
In the most simple terms, absolutely yes! Real estate can be an extremely profitable business if it’s run properly. But you need to have a roadmap to follow to keep track of your spending vs income. It’s easy to lose track of expenses and overextend yourself when you don’t have a set plan.
One of the easiest ways to jump-start any business is to set clear goals for yourself. Use this guide and the downloadable template to ensure you have clear, concise, trackable goals to keep you on track.
Start by setting some SMART goals to give yourself a concrete idea of what you see as success. Then, make sure you’re using the right tools—customer relationship manager (CRM), website, digital document signing, digital forms, etc., and make sure you have them easily accessible. Try keeping most of your business running from inside your CRM. It’s much easier to keep everything organized if everything is in one place.
Now, you have a step-by-step guide to creating a real estate business plan that will take your career to the next level. Taking the extra time to map your path to success is an essential step in helping you achieve your goals. Spend the extra time—it’s worth it. Now, it’s time to do the work and make it happen. You’ve got this!

Insurers in cash crunch amid real estate slump and rising claims, kenyas insurance sector paid over sh5 billion in flood related claims this year.
•The slowdown in the returns from the real estate market has further compounded the problem, with many insurance firms have invested heavily in property, an asset that has become increasingly difficult to liquidate.
•Despite advancements in technology such as artificial intelligence and robotic process automation have streamlining claims management, cash flow problems remain a significant obstacle to timely claim settlements.
Insurance firms are in the country are struggling with cash flow challenges to offset claims leading to delays according to Insurance Regulatory Authority and reinsurer Kenya Re.
This follows tough economic times that have seen their investments mostly real estate property fail to deliver anticipated returns.
The economic downturn, particularly the poor performance of investments, has worsened liquidity problems for many insurers
Kenya Reinsurance Corporation Managing Director Hillary Wachinga pointed to liquidity concerns as a major challenge for local insurers even as claims increased majorly due to the floods that hit the country early in the year and the subsequent political unrest.
He said that over the past couple of years, claim settlements, particularly within the Kenyan market, and has remained quite a pain point for many customers.
“Floods, for instance, we understand cost of the economy upwards of shillings five billion. When you look at the recent political figures, again, that cost us billions in destruction of properties and also in what we call business interruption and flight of capital,” said Wachinga.
Despite advancements in technology such as artificial intelligence and robotic process automation helping in streamlining claims management, cash flow problems remain a significant obstacle to timely claim settlements.
The slowdown in the returns from the real estate market has further compounded the problem, with many insurance firms have invested heavily in property, an asset that has become increasingly difficult to liquidate.
Wachinga highlighted that in the past five years, the liquidation of real estate properties has been a significant challenge for the sector.
Insurance Regulatory Authority Director of Supervision Kalai Musee, said that the inability to convert these investments into cash has exposed insurers.
“We have been in discussions with these companies to ensure they address their liquidity issues. They cannot use properties to pay claims, so we are pushing them to liquidate their assets,” Musee said.
Despite the liquidity challenges that have seen more insurance firms collapse in the past two years, the industry leaders assured the public that mechanisms are in place to protect policyholders.
Musee explained that Kenya has a Policyholders Compensation Fund (PCF), which provides a safety net for customers in the event that an insurance company collapses.
“We have what we call the Policyholders Compensation Fund, which is designed to step in and settle some claims if a company goes down. While it is not 100 per cent protection, it ensures there is some level of protection for policyholders,” Musee said.
He acknowledged that while the compensation fund may not cover all losses, it plays a crucial role in providing interim relief while the regulator addresses the issues with struggling companies.
The two were speaking on the sidelines the Kenya Re’s first ever-Global Insurance CEOs summit in Nairobi.
From the sessions it emerged that the insurance sector's challenges extend beyond liquidity.
Wachinga called for the harmonisation of insurance regulations across different markets to ensure a more consistent regulatory framework.
The summit, which has brought together over 340 CEOs from across Africa, the Middle East, and Asia, is seen as a critical platform to address these challenges.
He pointed out that the lack of regulatory uniformity across borders poses significant challenges for insurers operating in multiple jurisdictions.
“We really need to adopt global best practices in how we approach regulation, especially in cross-border markets. Right now, there is no homogeneity in the way regulations are enforced, and that is something we need to address to ensure a level playing field for all players,” said Wachinga.
“This is our first-ever CEO summit in the forty four year history of Kenya Re, and we have brought together some of the brightest minds from 83 countries to discuss how to tackle these issues and ensure the sustainability of the industry,” he said.
As the insurance industry in Kenya continues to navigate economic challenges, industry leaders are optimistic that the ongoing discussions at the Insurance CEOs Summit will provide a pathway to greater resilience.
Musee stressed the importance of collaboration between insurers and regulators in addressing these challenges.
“The topics being discussed here are about the changes happening in the industry, which are posing new risks to both players and regulators. It’s a crucial occasion to discuss how to move forward and ensure the industry remains stable,” he said.

Arabian Business: Latest News on the Middle East, Real Estate, Finance, and More

In the GCC – mainly in the UAE and Saudi Arabia – 6 out of 10 CHROs plan to invest significantly in HR tech in 2024, with 37% focusing on AI technologies to address talent shortages and skill development
Corporate majors and organisational biggies in the UAE and Saudi Arabia are roping in modern HR (Human Resources) platforms, besides investing heavily in AI—based HR tech as they grapple to put in place a future-ready, skill-based workforce for their ambitious regional and international expansion.
The surge in investments for HR tech is spurred by the need for identifying and cultivating the right mix of skills, with a focus on skill mapping and development to meet evolving demands becoming mission critical for companies’ expansion plans, industry experts and company insiders told Arabian Business.
In the GCC – mainly in the UAE and Saudi Arabia – 6 out of 10 CHROs (Chief Human Resources Officers) plan to invest significantly in HR tech in 2024, with 37 percent focusing on AI technologies to address talent shortages and skill development, they said.
Modern HR tech platforms help companies and organisations to convert vast amounts of employee data into actionable insights, improving hiring, talent development, and career progression strategies.
Revealed: 100 best places to work in the Middle East 2024
“Generative AI is set to become a force multiplier in HR over the next 2 to 3 years,” Mrigank Tripathi, President – Growth at PeopleStrong, a leading HR tech platform operating in GCC and India, told Arabian Business .
“Role of AI in HR will increasingly become highly important as meeting skill demands is critical in laying the foundation of a future-ready workforce, especially as organisations expand into new markets,” he said.
Tripathi said relying solely on external hiring is costly and risky, making internal skill development and capability-building essential for creating a robust talent pipeline.
Senior HR executives at some of the UAE-based companies confirmed their plans to make significant investments to improve their tech capabilities to meet specific talent hiring capabilities and employee re-skilling programmes.
Industry experts said UAE and Saudi companies across several sectors are increasingly shifting from the traditional job-based mode to a skills-based approach in talent management to keep up with rapid growth and increasing skill demands.
Companies now conduct skill mapping exercises to evaluate existing capabilities and identify gaps.
Additionally, by forecasting future needs, they draw up blueprints to pinpoint skills that are critical but currently lacking.
“We’re already seeing its [AI applications] impact in areas like recruitment, onboarding, exits, and even payroll,” Tripathi said.
“For example, an AI agent can manage recruitment from uploading job descriptions to screening thousands of CVs and shortlisting the top candidates, drastically increasing efficiency,” he said.
Corporate insiders said the strategy involves two key steps: first, understanding the current skill levels within the organisation, and second, developing and executing a plan to address skill gaps.
“This skills-based approach integrates recruitment, talent development, and retention, ensuring decisions are driven by skill growth,” said a senior HR executive at a Dubai-based tech startup, who wished not to be identified.
The executive said another major shift currently underway is in creating meaningful career journeys.
“Today’s employees seek more than just competitive pay; they want enriching, challenging experiences that lead to long-term engagement,” she said.
Tripathi said managing personalised talent programmes requires strong technological support.
He said PeopleStrong’s ‘TalentOS’, an AI-driven system built on a skill cloud, offers real-time skill insights and embeds skills across the employee lifecycle, enabling data-driven, strategic talent management decisions.
Industry experts said meeting skill demands is emerging critical for several corporate biggies in the GCC region, especially in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, as they are currently gearing up for their next stage of growth – expanding into new markets.
They said making internal skill development and capability-building will be essential for creating a robust talent pipeline for companies in the region for pursuing their ambitious overseas expansion plans as relying solely on external hiring is costly and risky.
Improving manager and employee efficiency is another major challenge identified for successful implementation of international expansion plans.
Company insiders said going forward, the focus will be on real-time, continuous employee performance feedback.
“Leaders need real-time insights into goal progress. This is where modern HR tech platforms play a key role, as their performance dashboards provide real-time data from work-tech systems, enabling continuous tracking and adjustments,” a senior corporate executive said.
“As a result, HR and business leaders are increasingly looking for more effective ways to manage performance,” the executive said.
The PeopleStrong senior executive said as the UAE and Saudi Arabia have become two of the most vibrant job markets, especially post-pandemic, skill-building has of late emerged as a top priority for CHROs and business leaders.
“A unified, skills-based talent strategy relies heavily on technology to be effective,” he added.
