There will always be ongoing changes within the real estate market. The level of service provided in the industry today is dramatically different from how it was when I first entered the business. So, would you rather work with an agent who provides full or limited service? The answer seems obvious. When it comes to real estate, most everyone would prefer to work with someone who has the most knowledge and experience, and who can use those factors to provide you with the highest level of experience possible.

Full-service agents and limited-service agents are worlds apart.

As for me, I’ve truly committed myself to real estate as a career. I dedicate a lot of time and effort into what I do so that I can best serve my clients. Part-time agents simply can’t provide the same level of care and attention that full-time agents can. Full-service agents and limited-service agents are worlds apart. When you enter your career, you need to decide which category you fall in. One factor to consider is that full-service agents have the benefit of receiving full commission structures. Becoming a full-service agent will require a lot of planning, but the results of your effort will be well worth it. You will get higher client satisfaction rates, more referrals, and better reviews.

Recently, I was asked the question, “How do I get my client to change their mind about their time frame?” The answer comes down to understanding your client’s needs.

Today, I’d like to address an interesting question I received recently: “How do I get my client to change their mind about their time frame?” Whether someone wants to list in the spring, wait until the end of summer, or wait until the weather gets a little colder, the key is understanding why the client thinks they need to wait. When your client tells you they want to wait until spring, ask why doing so is important to them. This way, you can guide them with their response in mind. Asking questions like this will be key to understanding your client.

It all comes down to knowing the market and knowing your client.

Make sure when you ask things of your client, they know that you genuinely care about their thoughts and needs. Your client should feel and know that you truly want to understand their position. Once you understand their answer, you can determine whether or not what they believe actually aligns with what is going on in the market. This way, you can remain empathetic to their ideas while also leading them to make a fact-based decision. If you present your client with information about the market, they’ll be able to think more critically about what they truly want. It all comes down to knowing the market and knowing your client. If you have any other questions or would like more information, feel free to give me a call or send me an email. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

How can you get your buyer or seller to the next step? When we’re coming from a point of value, it can be hard to assist a client who has their own barriers. A client may say that they want to wait until spring, they want to look at other properties, or they just don’t think now is the right time. However, these things may not actually help them get a better deal. Sometimes, you have to deal out uncomfortable truths like this to your clients. The best deal for your client might be the one right in front of them.
