Are Your 08' Deals In The "Bermuda Triangle"?
I've had my share of Good Deals Gone Bad. For example I had a sale many years ago where the buyer, about 90 years old, was getting on a plane to come to the closing and DIED before the plane took off. I use that example a lot in telling agents "DON'T spend the commission until it's IN HAND". And everyone has had those newbie first time buyers that you show them 100 houses in 8 months just to find out they "Bought from another agent". See...they know something we don't know...."ALL Real Estate commissions nationally go into a "COMMISSIONS POOL" ... then the NAR divides the checks and mails them to all the agents equally" ...right? I have a real estate friend that had a great year in 2007 but in 2008 he's had the following happen: WHEW...it gives me a headache thinking of the bad luck he's had this year alone! It's almost like the Bermuda Triangle has shifted over any area he has been working on this year. HAVE YOU HAD MORE DEALS GO "SOUTH" THIS YEAR THAN NORMAL? |
