I Liked My Job A Lot Better Before...

I don't know about you, but this really gets to me: having to give my sellers the BAD NEWS! I shudder when the Seller says: "I bought it last year or the year before, and I really need to sell it now!" Ouch!

Upside down almost every time... bring a lot of money to closing or find other avenues to deal with the problem.

If I go easy on the Seller and let him push me into a higher listing price, I live to regret it every time, for if I am not aggressive enough now and get it sold, it will garner that much less a few months from now...

It's a tough job right now: convincing the Sellers to take a LOT less. I ask to present the offer directly to the Seller nowadays, for if the Seller's Agent is weak, there is no deal to be had. With so many choices currently available, the Buyer just makes another offer elsewhere. Yes, it's good for my Buyers, but somehow it doesn't feel like a Victory; the Seller is really getting beat up in this market...

I just hate it for my Sellers, but I did not create this market, and I glad that I am very good at navigating it! The better I am at my job - pricing the property correctly and marketing it aggressively - the less money my Sellers will lose.
