Do You Enjoy a Knock on Your Door at 8 am? – by Twin Cities Homes for Sale
I get up around 5 am most mornings. That gives me an opportunity to have time to myself: read, check my email, blog and have some coffee before it’s time to take care of the rest of the family and get them ready for the day. I suppose most people wake up a couple of hours later than I do. But, even I am not ready to hear a knock on my door at 8 am.
Recently, one of my listings expired, and I relisted it a couple of days later. Naturally, my sellers received a number of letters and phone calls from agents who prospect expireds while the home was off the market. That’s fair game. But, what I don’t understand is that the calls continued for another 10 days. And, even an 8am visit 6 days after the home was relisted. That’s unacceptable! I am not worried about my sellers’ loyalty at all. However, they should not be bothered by other agents trying to list the home. Why don’t these agents bring buyers? Then we could do business.
Bottom line: if you prospect expireds, check the MLS on the day of your call!
