Professionals move with a purpose. Doesn't matter what the profession is either. I have seen doctors apply their trade with confidence, attorneys rock & roll, police veterans take control of problems, escrow officers move transactions forward and agents perform responsibly. Applying ones savvy toward a result will bring it in. So, why cant the banks be professional?
PROBLEM/SOLUTION=RESULTS
In my world, as soon as a problem shows its ugly challenging head, I am all over it with solutions that make it seem like it was never there. I don't like delays, non-response, irresponsibility, or procrastination especially in the business world. Business dynamics take precedence sort of like math does. It should be true and constant
NO ACTION PLAN...JUST AN INACTION PLAN
Why is it that banks take 6-18 months to close a sale? Do you really want to be indoctrinated in their excuses as to why things don't get done? I don't. Go to any business that has to interact with the public to be successful and you will find action plans being acted out timely. No fuss and no muss
THERE ARE RULES IN BUSINESS
Why? Because if you don't, you go belly up. But you see the banks don't operate by standard business rules. Their behavior in not acceptable, but they get away with it. I go along because they have the gold and they rule, but that doesn't make it right.
THE SWORD OF ACCOUNTABILITY CUTS BOTH WAYS
When I am put on notice that something is needed to move my transaction forward, if I took months, I would lose my license and my clients. I get everything done right away and then go into a WAIT MODE when dealing with banks. The thing about waiting for a bank is not the same as waiting in line to pay for something either. You dont even know if you are checking out or not
ARE WE THERE YET?
When checking out, you see the line moving, people transacting and slowly but surely you move a little closer to a successful transaction. With the bank, you don't see or hear anything unless you keep calling and following it up. Very one sided business.
BANKS NOT ON THE SAME PAGE
Buyers want to buy. They want to give their money to a bank, move in and get on with their lives. Sellers want to bring closure and seek out their next opportunity. Agents want their clients content and would like to get paid. So, the question gets begged.....
What do the banks want? I am not sure. Sometimes I think they hide in all their confusion to mask their lack of professionalism
