This time of year many people pack their possessions for at least a week including the family dog and head out on vacation. Did you ever think
Why Buying Houses Is Like A Summer Road Trip?
Many common elements the agent like the driver handles like with his passengers, the clients.
- Be Happy. The driver maintains good attitudes for all in the vehicle.
- Stay occupied. OK don't be letting the clients watch DVDs in your SUV, but hand out the MLS sheets to them with the home details.
- Be informative. Have a lively conversation back and forth about the local sights out the window, the school districts, the shopping, etc.
- Make it fun. Buying a home like a road trip is to be an enjoyable experience. Stop for rest breaks and refreshments, particularly on hot days. Laugh a lot!!
- Be creative. No not counting red cars and silver cars out the window, but sometimes you have to deviate off your original plan and look at categories of houses you didn't intend to at the start.
- Restful. Above all gauge your client's energy levels. Usually beyond eight homes to look at they all start turning into one big blur. Have fun but be mindful the little ones can easily get tuckered out.
Did I just say clients can be like children???
