Special offer

Would you like me to do it for you?

By
Real Estate Agent with Crye-Leike Realtors

I sent an offer, no, good offer on a large home yesterday to an agent who was at a convention.  The first question I got was, "How long did you give me?"  

Honestly, what in the world are agents thinking?  You have a chance to sell a large listing, and you are worried about having time to play another slot machine at a real estate convention?!

I'm all for us getting together and learning from eachother, but when someone calls with an offer on a property that I represent, I'm going to present that offer right away regardless of the time aloted.  

Haven't you heard?  There is a recession, people are out of work, and Realtors are getting out of the business!  

If I'm an inconvenience to you, I'd be happy to present the offer to your seller myself.

Hello Jason:

I hear what you are saying, but take a deep breath. There is a chance the agent is preparing to race home to present the offer and negotiate a successful transaction.  On the other hand, if they are lucky enough on the slots they don't need the sale.
