My New Blog

March 5th, 2010 1:48 PM

Sometimes writing a blog is so easy as I have so much to share in this ever changing industry. Today is one of those days as I had an experience with another agent that just proves that real estate agents are not all alike.

While attending a home inspection for one of my buyers, I struck up conversation with the listing agent of the property. We exchanged thoughts on the market and I explained that I have been very busy doing market analysis on homes, however, some sellers havent yet listed as they feel their home is worth more than what the facts state. Some, in fact, have listed with other agents at higher prices ( they are still all on the market at this writing, however)

The other agent said to me "take it anyway- you can always drop the price". Personally, I was floored! How does this bring expertise and service, to you, the seller?

Considering the first 3 weeks a home is on the market is its highest attention getting time, considering that coming back to you asking for a price reduction has wasted precious time in the market, not to mention, those buyers that would have bought, considering it's my reputation and your referall of me as to my services and knowledge; why throw all that away to have some "ego moment" of getting the listing?

I am here to deliver not disappoint. I work hard, do my homework up front, present the facts as they are and work with you to make the best decision. Let the other agents have EXPIRED all over their name. I want SOLD on mine as well as a list of happy customers!
