The reason for the title, is it currently sounds like real estate agents act like a guy who asks a girl out for a date, but says: Will I be able to get further than just a kiss the first date?
That may sound totally off key to you, totally off the subject and I do not care, but yesterday I had a call from a buyer wanting to purchase a $290,000 house, and he said he was sick and tired of agents 1. not returning his calls and 2 attempting to prequalify him over the phone before showing him and his family a house.
I did explain to the young man I could not provide him with the service he deserved as his area to purchase was outside my realm of expertise, and too I had no desire to travel to Queen Creek. Also that I was sorry I had no idea of anyone who worked in the area he wanted that I felt would treat him with the highest of respect that I do myself.
WAKE UP AGENTS OR BE LEFT BEHIND
If you are already behind become prepared to be further behind
As we all know things are always changing, we are about to see one of the biggest if not the biggest changes ever with regard to the leadership of the United States of America.
Have you been in long enough to remember the cell phone what was larger than a brick and twice as heavy? Or before we had cell phones. And how we carried six or eight quarters in our pocket at all times to get to a pay phone?
Those times are GONE! And the time of treating buyers like they are in court and you are the judge and jury and trying them to confirm if they are guilty or not guilty - really wanting to buy a house or not in the next 24 to 48 hours so you can make a quick buck.
To stay in the business you will have to change and change now or be ran over by those who do know how to treat people professionally and with respect. Showing your first priority is to SERVE THE PEOPLE.
MY THREE PROMISES
1 I will always be on time (if not I will give you a $100. gift card at your favorite restaurant)
2. I am brutally honest
3. I will do what I say I am going to do.
