🎙 Real Life in Real Estate with Mark Peebles
In this week's episode, Mark talks about a topic he believes is almost a lost art in our industry: asking for a price reduction. With so many new agents starting their careers during the strong seller's market of the past 5–7 years, a lot of them simply haven't had to learn how to handle these crucial conversations. But in today's market, it's a skill you can't afford to ignore.
Mark expresses how, early in his career—back when he and his dad carried 60+ listings at a time—he learned through experience that having the right conversation at the right time could be the difference between a stagnant listing and a sold home.
✨ In this episode, Mark covers topics such as:
-
Setting clear expectations upfront
-
Using pricing models that fit today's market
-
Reviewing performance and feedback with clients
-
Backing up reductions with data
-
Practicing conversations before you're in front of a seller
Mark makes it clear: this isn't just about lowering a price—it's about serving your clients, guiding them with confidence, and helping them reach their goals.
