Buyers are Freaking Out

You get what you are looking for and will find evidence to support your viewpoint. If you are freaking out, you'll find a way to support that emotion. If you are figuring it out, you will find a way to make sense of what is happening in this market.

Buyers respond to you, their agent. How are you reacting when a buyer asks you a question about commission? Are you freaking out or do you have answers? Agents that have figured out the answers are doing well right now. Sellers are saying they don't want to pay a commission. How do you respond? We need to know how to show them what both agents do. The buyers and sellers agents do great work and you must learn how to show them.

Buyers are Figuring it Out

Every buyer is getting their education about the changes from somewhere. Either they are learning online or in person when they want to see a home. What are you going to teach them?

Agent that are growing their business right now are educating buyers. They are not hiding in basement hoping this all blows over. Get out there, educate and inform buyers.

Buyers are Backing Out

Your time is valuable and you need to educate and advise your clients about the process of moving forward once an offer is accepted. Are you ready to help them take the next steps once an offer is accepted?

Our vibe attracts our tribe! Are you attracting buyers that want to buy?

We can handle tough times!

Romans 5:3-5

"Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us."

‭‭Romans‬ ‭5‬:‭3‬-‭5‬ ‭ESV‬‬
