I am speaking about the agent remarks section when filling out the listing on the MLS site. Here is where we can speak peer to peer, business to business and talk Real Estate. Things that are necessary to know and help move things forward agent to agent. Many agents do not use this space well and either over do it or under do it
DON'T CONFUSE WITH
Another common area which is not used well is the property description area. Agents have been known to put information in this space that is not supposed to be public knowledge. That's right! This is the area that appears on the Internet and is picked up by everyone. only the best foot forward should enter this territory.
TRUE STORY
I knew of an agent who used this space without thinking to make comments about the renter in possession calling them names and uncooperative to visit with. Specific name calling was used that enter into libel. Yes, there are people in every business that have no common sense. Even if it is relevant and true...you went public with this?
BACK TO THE AGENTS LOUNGE SECTION
That is what the agent remarks section is for. Tell the other professional that there is a problem and to call for briefing. There are many ways to cooperate with each other, but the standard is to take a professional approach and not a personal one. Get it done but in a way that doesnt come to bite you in the end
GAME OFF and GAME ON
The eyes of the industry and its players are upon us all. How we conduct ourselves is the best advertising one can have. When agents visit the Agents break room, well relax, tell stories and exchange business ideas...When we go outside of the break room, it is game on
