When it comes to lead generation, there are many tried and true strategies that real estate agents can implement such as cold-calling, door-knocking and open houses. However, sometimes a lead just falls into your lap, sometimes in the most unexpected places.
 
In January, we asked our CE Plus members, "Where's the strangest place or way you've acquired a lead that's resulted in a sale?" Here's what they had to say.
 
"At a funeral."
 
"Buying gasoline."
 
"Through an ex-buyer."
 
"At the hospital."
 
"In an elevator."
 
"While on floor duty at the brokerage office."
 
"Tubing down a river."
 
These responses just go to show that no matter where you are, be on the lookout for people looking to buy or sell a house.
