Results of Open Houses – We Sell Open Houses .com
BySpeaking with those of you that go to the "open house" is always fun. I love meeting new and interesting people. I can also tell that a majority of you have been taken advantage of in the past. Either by that Used Car Salesman – The High-pressure approach and technique – or someone that you trusted too fast and turned to be dishonest, taking full advantage of you and your trust.
I am pretty active at open houses. I am not one to sit as those of you to come into the home and have it your way. I owe a certain amount of responsibility to the seller’s. Here is the just of it: Everyone that comes into open houses is a stranger to me. I do not know if they can afford what they are looking at. I do not know if they are neighbors just being curious. I don’t know if they are casing the home for a future burglary. I don’t know if it is a X husband or wife that is doing their research about the past and/or newly acquired life style. AS you can see, there is a heck of a lot I don’t know when I interact with people that visit open houses.
The point is this, if I ask some of the visitors to wait outside while I am showing some viewers, please be patient. I cannot follow multiple couples through the home at the same time. My concern is this – If you are represented by an agent, great, they should have screened you and met you at their office (if they have one). Your first meeting should not have been at a property. If it was, be careful, as a buyer. This would indicate to me that your agent is flying by the seat of their pants a bit. As a rule of thumb, we meet everyone at our office the first time to get the usual complementaries out of the way and to make sure that we gel with those that are doing their research. We want to make sure that this "relationship" is not something that will be regretted by either party. I want to keep my seller’s safety at my core. They hired me to do a job, sell their home, I don’t want them to come home with things missing because I did not want to hurt anyone’s feelings.
Open houses can be fun – I always want it to be said that I look forward to meeting you and hope that I would be able to have you choose me when it comes to servicing your Real Estate Needs!
