#37 What would you do?

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner 01293735 CA

You are referred a client by a life long friend. The client is her sister. You show the sister 5 houses. she is unrealistic on what she wants for the price she can afford. She is demanding and rude.

What do you do?

1. Tell her sister

2. Tell her she needs to find another agent that you are not the right agent for her

3. Have a talk with her about the home buying process, how you work, and what you expwct from her

4. Be quiet. Suck it up. Be kind. Stick with it until she buys the house.

 Lori, as you know, people spend their  time on doing things that will benefit them. 

How good  of  friend is this person to you?

How much do you value their friendship?

Its a risk/ reward decision, nothing more,

what do I gain by sucking it up?

what do I loose by blowing her off? 

If she was a walk in, we  wouldn't be having this conversation, would we :) 

Have a great day

Be honest with her.  She probably isn't used to that!  K

I'd go with #3 at first and if she is still unrealistically demanding and rude than straight to #2.
