Stay Positive

By
Real Estate Agent with Reece and Nichols
I see agents focusing on how bad things are in our market. We are having a great market. The only thing I see is that buyers are more focused on what we always tell our sellers. Your home has to be in top notch condition for you to get the asking price you want. Buyers are not wanting a lot of homes with differed maintenance. They want something move in ready. I see so many negative agents walking there buyers through a home that all it needs is a couple of bedrooms that need carpet replacement and paint. You negative agents need to go away if your not cut out for this work then realize our jobs are to be positive, and pratice good ethics with each other and to our buyers and sellers. I don't know how many times I have been extorted by other agents. Lets make this a good year agents focus on being positive forget what happened yesterday and focus on what today can bring. Trust me when your clients see your full of joy and pointing out hey lets get the seller to paint this home it has everything you want. They trust in us because we are looking in there best interest. So lets focus on this great market we are in, and stay positive.

Isabella, I am a very optimistic person by nature and I agree with you about staying positive!  Now if we could just et the media to STOP with the doom and gloom maybe we can get the rest of the people to be positive!

Isabella, You are right on.  We need to view life as being up.  If we focus on the bad then things will never really be good.  Plus Staying positive helps your health too.

You are correct.  We tend to look at life three feet in front many times and not look at the future and what steps we can take at this moment to take advantage of a soon to be brighter future.  SOmetimes we need gentle reminders like you have provided and I for one thank you for it.  Best regards.

Life is simple people are going to buy. Our lives to not stop because of what the media says. We create what is being said out there. I am not one of those people....tell yourself that you are not one of those people saying our housing market is not in a slump. People move out of state, buy bigger homes, town size, first time home buyers, newly webs, isn't life great. So I tell myself everyday these are the people I am attracting into my life.
