Oh my goodness! I actually heard this yesterday.
"Realtors® are scary"
I had recieved an email from someone who had found me online. They had asked some questions in a public forum and their questions had really gotten pretty detailed. I offered that they could contact me and we could chat more specifically.
I did get an email.....but not a phone number. So we did some back and forth by email, which is fine...I like email. It allows me to clearly write what I want to convey and hopefully understand the questions as well. But at some point, we need to "touch" humanly....we had gotten to that point.
Then it came.....in an email:"But You Realtors® Are So Scary To Talk To"
Ok....what does that mean? Do people think that we can force them to sell their home....or buy a home? Are they afraid we might put their desires into action? Think about that....
Would calling a Realtor® cause a consumer to put their desires into action!!
Obviously we can't force anyone to do anything...nor should we. But we can help create a plan of action if someone is READY to make a move. I also spend quite a bit of time working on my pipeline....deferred income! That pipeline is the reason that I've been successful in this business. Who do you think is in a pipeline? Someone who isn't quite ready to take action...we need those clients also.
So if you are thinking about buying or selling in Orange County....stop guessing about prices, and values, and costs, and loans....call a Realtor®. CALL ME!!! Get the information you really need to make decisions...even (especially) if it's not something you want/need/can do right now..my pipeline needs attention also.
