14 Examples of a Great Real Estate Mission Statement

Published by Brian E Adams on March 18, 2024March 18, 2024

Your brand, your customer avatar, your prospecting methods, everything originates from your business mission.

Figuring out who you are, and who you are not, is an important first step in giving your real estate business a purposeful direction.

Once you have a mission statement, you can then begin building your business, value propositions, and personal brand from those core values.

Steps to a Great Mission Statment

Mission v Strategy v Value Proposition v Unique Selling Proposition

It’s easy to confuse missions, value propositions, and strategies. But don’t!

It is important that your mission be a short and concise statement that you can memorize. If you have a team, everyone on your team should be able to recite it from memory.

It does no good to have a mission statement saved in a Word document somewhere. If you and your team cannot remember your mission from memory, then you do not have a mission.

Mission. A single-sentence summary of the reason you exist. Answer this question: What do you do that is better than what anyone else does and why?
- EXAMPLE: Hood Homes Blog is the most trusted authority on Killeen, TX single-family real estate investing.
Values. Your values are the principles you want to embody and your clients can come to expect from you in the pursuit of your mission.
- EXAMPLE: Knowledgeable, Local Expert, and Investor Savvy.
Strategy. A strategy describes the big picture of how you as a business can meet your mission. It may inform which lead generation strategies you select, and probably is not public-facing.
- EXAMPLE: Hood Homes Blog creates blog content on all topics Killeen, TX as well as real estate in order to earn trust in local knowledge and expertise. Posts regularly in Bigger Pockets to establish oneself as a local investor expert. Attend local auctions.
Value Proposition. What value do you provide to customers that serves your strategy? Are you available 24/7? Are you investor-savvy? Are you a local native who knows the history of your area better than anyone? Do you specialize in VA loans? These tie closely to your mission and strategy but are subordinate to both. They should serve your mission and strategy.
- EXAMPLE: Hood Homes Blog performs commercial grade underwriting on SFR assets for investors.
Unique Selling Proposition. A USP is specific to a particular offer or service. Free aerial photography for listings over $300,000 might be a USP. Something you provide that disinguishes you from your competition and might push a prospect over the edge to choose to do business with you. USPs should be consistent with your mission, strategy, etc., but are also more flexible and specific to situations.
- EXAMPLE: Hood Homes Blog offers discounted commissions for repeat customers like investors.

Remember, your mission is not “to make money”.

Yes, real estate is a business, the purpose of which is to be profitable and provide income for yourself and your employees. But you earn income when you trade something of value. Clients hire you and pay you because you are giving them value.

What is the value you are selling? That is how you should think about your mission, and money comes later.

They obsess over prices, market values and the newest, hottest listings. They make sure our clients don’t buy the wrong home. Meanwhile, the rest of the BREL team does what they do best: Next-level staging. Killer photography. Powerful marketing. Rock-solid paperwork. Concierge services for our clients.

It’s Win/Win. And it’s all included in our commission: Solid Experience. Real Results. Full Transparency. Communication Guaranteed.

Next Steps to a Great Mission

Good mission statements are one of the most important elements of good leadership.

The Army knows this. The entire world of military tactics and operations revolves around “Mission Command” and the 5 paragraph operations order (OPORD). The most important element in an OPORD is paragraph 2: The Mission.

Your business needs to start with the why. Start with the mission.
