Ghosting: the ceasing of communication with someone without warning.
If you're in real estate, it's just a matter of time until you get ghosted.
A potential client contacts you. They're in the preliminary stages of their home search.
They don't have an agent (at least that's the claim).
Financing won't be a problem.
They've got questions.
You know the answers, or know where to get them.
Communication is good. Whether it's email, phone or text, things seem to be going well.
And then....silence.
Multiple attempts, no response to any of them.
What happened?
Did they REALLY have an agent after all and just needed information?
Did they change their minds about buying a home?
Did their computer go belly up?
Did their spam filter go nuts and suddenly blacklist you?
Was there a family emergency?
A major illness?
We'll never know for sure.
Movin' on, I'm not afraid of no ghosts :)
It's a numbers game.
