I can't believe it. I have become like some of my clients. I didn't used to be this way. Is there a pill I can take to cure this? You have no idea what I am talking about do you? I'm sorry. At least I can cure that.
I'm moving. I am a renter. Yes a realtor renter. At least since my divorce I have been a renter. I have been in this same place for three years and it is time to go. I need a change. I had to give sixty days notice to my current landlord. I did that without having a sure place to go but knowing a few realtors I figured no big deal. And of course it wasn't. I was offered so many deals from realtor friends that I finally stopped telling people I was moving. I got tired of explaining why I didn't want to live in the palace they were offering me. So what is the problem you ask? Why am I like one of my customers? I can't make up my mind which abode I want to live. That's right; I can't make up my mind on where to live. I have become one of my clients.
I have narrowed the decision down to two places and I can't make up my mind. Are you familiar with that particular buyer syndrome? Been there, done that and now I am "it". I have used all of the logic I use with my customers. I even did a buyers interview on myself. Yes I did answer myself. Do I need a shrink? I still can't make up my mind. I have taken the old yellow pad and #2 pencil and made my positives and negatives list. I have flipped a coin and it landed on its' edge. Just kidding on that one, but you get my point. I am my buyer.
Maybe the problem is that both potential landlords are friends of mine. Good friends. I know the one's husband, kids and grandkids and I know the others boyfriend. Opps ex-boyfriend, they broke up last week. I introduced them to each other two years ago. She called me crying this past week. And the other potential landlord called me this past week complaining about a mutual friend of ours. Thank goodness they know I have no social life and have all the time in the world to listen to them. Now you understand why the coin I flipped landed on its' edge. I can't make up my mind. I have become my client.
The last time I bought a house my ex and I walked in saw the pool, hot tub, counted the bedrooms, made a full price offer and closed in three weeks. Done. Fast and easy decision. I rented this house in a couple of hours. Done. Fast and easy decision. And now this, I have become one of my clients and can't make up my mind on where I want to live. Am I spending too much time with buyers? Have they rubbed off on me? Do I need a shrink? Why can't I make a decision on this matter? I'm not even buying only renting.
Okay I have three weeks until I have to be out of here so I have plenty of time. I am well over half packed. Maybe something will change. Maybe one of my buyers will call me tomorrow and tell me they have made a decision and that will spur me to make one. I can't believe it I have become my clients.
Maybe I just need a vacation. I can't believe it.....I have become my client.
