How does your Realtor treat you?

Most of the buyers I work with are looking to buy a home for the first time. They have had credit troubles and are now ready to find out what they need to do to buy a home. When they call me, and I start to answer their questions and give them advice they tell me "You are the first agent that hasn't hung up on me," I hear this from so many people everyday and it irritates me to no end!

                                                     Phone Hang Up

You are a buyer and you are just asking questions about the home buying process and if an agent doesn't want to talk to you because you have bad credit or are not ready to move today, then they are not the agent for you. I have 5-10 people call me a day that are either not ready to buy today because of a lease with their apartment or don't have good enough credit and just want advice. They tell me their experience is that agents don't want to help them because they are not ready to buy today.

I want to help everyone that needs and asks for my help, this is my career and I am here to serve you the buyer, even if you are not ready to buy today.

Great attitude Todd. You are doing the correct thing. So what if they aren't ready to purchase for a couple of years. Put them on a plan and then help them when they are ready. I answer any question, from any consumer, at any time. My business is a long term affair. If it takes them 5 years to be ready I will still be here for them. Great job Todd. Keep at it.

Thank you Bryant,

The problem does seem to be that I think some agents are here to make the quick buck and not think of the long term... BIG MISTAKE!

Great Job Bryant,

 That will get you paid in the long term, and even when they aren't ready to buy today, because you help them now they become a huge advocate for you as a referral base. They're making you money already.

Preston - I think it is very important to treat every client with respect no matter their situation.
