He Tells Me I Don’t Want You Wasting My Time And Then I Say

 

REALTOR Michael Jacobs 818.516.4393 cellI was finishing dinner and taking plates to the kitchen sink when the phone rings…

 

I’m sitting in front of one of your signs -- is this a condo or what?

 

Ahh, what a nice way to start the conversation, I say to myself.

 

This will be short…

 

I tell him the property in question is a townhouse and actually has an accepted offer.  What are you looking for?

 

I want that but I want it to be single level.  

 

(Well, I want to be taller, handsome, very rich -- but just because I want it doesn’t it make it come true)  

 

Well, everything in that particular complex is multi-level.  Can you tell me some of your other requirements. By the way, may I have your name?  My name is Michael Jacobs.  And the phone number you called me, is this the best number? Is it your cell?(I recognize as out-of-area)....

 

He goes on to tell me his name ---- and oh

 

I don’t want to buy - I want to lease and if possible it should be furnished and short term would be most desirable.  

 

Hmmm --- and your budget is?   I ask.

 

Well, I don’t want you wasting my time --

 

No problem, Mr Jones as I have plenty of opportunities to waste my own time, I definitely don’t want or have any desire to waste yours.   He has no definite time frame because this would be a second home.  He warms up(a bit) and tells me more about his situation.  It makes sense.  It won’t be easy.  And remember, it’s a lease.   I did a quick search and come up with one possibility - it won’t work but I tell him I’ll keep in touch but only should something appropriate come up.   I receive a reply email a bit terse but thanking me.   I then receive a second email telling me to increase the budget he has established.   

 

This may or may not lead to anything -- you never know what may happen when you pick up the phone.  If you have a particular need I will be honest with you and tell you what you can expect - I have no desire to waste your time.
