Buyer Consultation

Many successful agents are changing the way they approach sellers - "Let's find your next dream home first, then we'll sell your current home". Same client, 2 transactions, easier process for the client, guaranteed 2 paychecks! No more contingent offer. Buy Now/Sell Later.

When choosing a real estate agent, look beyond the usual promises. Ask how they plan to market your property, who they can reach, what networks they belong to, how they use video and social media, and how they communicate results. Experience matters, but so do strategy, resources, relationships, and follow-through.

Organize showings by showing the property they have expressed the most interest in first rather than last. That way the customer will always compare the later showing properties to the property you think they are most interested in. This adds urgency as time and distance increases from the first property. If you show the property they are considering most last they might consider that the properties will continue to get better the more you show them.

Before showing property make sure the buyer is pre-approved. When talking about financing make sure the buyer should also keep all their debt up to date, not to incur more debt than they had when they were pre-approved and not to change their financial situation with their career, or assets including savings without talking to their lender. Further, before writing an offer the buyers agent should make sure the lenders information is up to date.

A buyer consultation sets expectations before the search starts: clarify budget and pre-approval, must-haves vs. nice-to-haves, and realistic timeline given current inventory. Walk them through the offer process and today's market conditions so they're not blindsided by competition or appraisal gaps. Buyers who understand the process upfront trust your guidance and move faster when the right home appears.
