Rick Smenner rebuilt his entire business after relocating to a new state — using iHomefinder as his single system for leads, follow-up, and closings.
Deals closed per year (solo)
New registrations per month
Platform for everything
After 27 years selling real estate in Toledo, Ohio, Rick relocated to Knoxville, Tennessee in 2006. He had no client base, no referral network, and no local reputation. He was starting completely over.
Rick carved out a niche specializing in 55+ communities on Tellico Lake — four communities where retirees relocate from across the country. But building a pipeline of relocation buyers with 12–18 month timelines meant he needed a system that could nurture leads consistently without letting anyone fall through the cracks.
Rick’s morning routine is simple: check for new registrations, review what they were looking at, and set up a saved search so they start getting listing alerts immediately. From there, iHomefinder’s drip campaigns and automated text messages keep the conversation going.
Rick’s iHomefinder site ranks #1 for his niche communities — generating every buyer lead organically.
