Have you ever been asked "Will you cut your comission?"
What about recently?
We've all heard, seen, sat down with a Seller or Listed from someone with this question.
"Will you List my home for a Discounted Commission?"
Did you know the seasoned Realtors
make it through the ups and downs of the real estate market by saying "NO" more often.
There are some reasons for cutting the commission, such as being The Agent on the Selling of one home then the Buying of another, or doing both end of the deal. After over 10 years I have heard this few times.
Once referral business becomes a big part of your business, you will be minimizing the chance of hearing a potential Buyer or Selling saying these words, due to past clients selling your service before you even meet your next client.
This referral business does not come easy. To get to the referral business, you must make a hug impression on people.
Going beyong the call of duty to becoming a respected friend.
By doing this, the people you are introduced to, from the past clients will already have a respect for you and the payoff of that respect is the ultimate.
In closing, this addage comes to mind,
Take care of the people who take care of you.
