In my little warped way of seeing the world...
INSTEAD of agents graduating a real estate school and getting some coffee mug on their desk with the REALTOR BROKER BRAND logo on it....
I think they should have one that reads I PLAN, GOD LAUGHS.
The reason I say that, in almost EVERY real estate transaction despite an agent's vision of how they will get from the starting point to the closing table, it invariably is full of
- Detours
- Delays
- Setbacks
- Surprises
- Totally unforeseen events
- Things out of left field
- Things BEYOND your control
On and on the UNEXPECTED HAPPENS.
The Unpredictable Is Built Into A Real Estate Transaction.
Agents know this over time, but I just say this as a reminder to CLIENTS to fasten their seat bellts and expect it.
Maybe show them your coffee mug!!
