The name of the game in real estate is real estate listings. Now that does not mean to take every listing...it just means to take saleable listings, listings that are going to sell. Even these days, saleable listings sit longer on the market, sometimes saleable is just not enough.
I know the mind set Joe Blow will take it, my theory is let him...the most inventory does not necessarily mean the most money in our pocket...

Has this happened to you? Answer the questions truthfully...
You present an offer and a seller will not even negotiate, takes so personally they hang up on you. Did you do your job effectively?
Did you explain the selling process to the sellers in a manner that they would understand or did you use your business lingo and perform the stereotype Real Estate Agent hit and run? That means pick up the listing and gooooooooo.
The seller calls because they has not heard from you in 3 weeks...just wants to know what is going on. Ask yourself did you do your job effectively?
Doesn't it speak for itself if a customer has to call their agent for a little comfort and to have to be the one to lead the communication.
The seller wants to overprice the property, the sad part it is now in the Multiple Listing Service with the seller's price they thought their property was worth and your information right next to each other. Oh Brilliant...your name in lights!
If reputation is all we got, what have you just done to yours?
Tenants occupy the property. Have you met them and attempted to build a rapport with people you will have to interact with regularly? Have you explained what to expect and to give them reassurance after all selling this property will affect their lives too. Comfort them you will need their total cooperation.
Do seller's properties still look like seller homes once they are on the market? What would be a solution as an alternative to get that property sold? Is it price reduction, staging or repairing or possibly leaving their property? Do you have the guts to tell them?
