9. Start Listening & Stop Assuming
Fast Track Facilitator Notes
Session 2: Getting Started
Start Listening & Stop Assuming
Be a Good Listener.
Active listening is the first step to uncovering the true needs & wants of your Open House Guests.
Be Willing to Talk…and Talk, and Talk Some More.
Buying Real Estate is one of the biggest financial decisions any of us will ever make. Just because they’re not ready to buy today, doesn’t mean they won’t be ready 3, 6, or even 9 months from now.
Be Open-minded.
How many of us met and married someone on the first date? Often times, we assume people aren’t serious buyers when, in fact, they may be looking for the right agent or the right property.
Be Consistent.
Once you’ve gained their okay to maintain contact, then do so!
