Feedback - Be Careful What You Ask For

Feedback - Be Careful What You Ask For

As agents, it's our job to get feedback for our homeowners. When I get a call or email asking for feedback from another agent, I am going to be honest. No sugar coating. And I'm nice about it.

But, when I get blasted for being honest, I have to scratch my head. YOU asked for feedback. That is YOUR job. It will help your homeowner to know what other agents and buyers think. Isn't that the whole point to getting and giving feedback? Some homeowners are unrealistic about the price of their home in relation to other comparable homes that are on the market and homes that recently sold. Getting feedback from agents and buyers can help greatly. In fact, it may save you from losing the listing.

Be grateful I was honest, nice and kept my cool. You did blast me remember?
