IF YOUR BUSINESS COULD TALK… WHAT WOULD IT SAY?

We spend a lot of time telling people how good our business is.

Great service.

Great experience.

Great relationships.

Great results.

But this week, I want to turn the microphone around.

If your business were sitting across the table from you, what would it say about how you’ve been running it?

Would it feel cared for?

Neglected?

Consistently fed?

Only noticed when you need something from it?

Because tomorrow, we’re taking it somewhere even less comfortable.

We’re putting it in front of the Dragon’s 🐉

Would they invest?

Would you?

The Normal Market

What if today’s real estate market isn’t broken?

What if our measuring stick is?

For several years, buyers, sellers and even Realtors have been comparing today’s market to one of the most unusual periods Canadian real estate has ever experienced.

COVID gave us historically low rates, compressed inventory, frantic demand, bidding wars and homes selling almost immediately.

Extraordinary became normal.

And when extraordinary disappeared, normal started feeling broken.

That creates three very different problems:

Sellers wonder why their home hasn’t sold in three weeks.

Buyers finally have time and choice — yet sometimes struggle even more to make a decision.

And Realtors can fall into the trap of responding to every challenge with the easiest explanation:

“It’s the price.”

Sometimes it absolutely is.

But today’s market is giving us considerably more information than price alone.

Days on market.
Property days on market.
Inventory.
Showings.
Feedback.
Competing listings.
Recent sales.
Buyer behaviour.

The opportunity isn’t to predict what happens next.

It’s to get much better at reading what is happening now.

This week, we’re looking at THE NORMAL MARKET through three sets of eyes:

SELLERS. BUYERS. REALTORS.

Because national data gives us context.

Local data gives us instructions.

And maybe the most important reset is this:

The market doesn’t owe us 2021.

+the truth.

For 10 days I’ve been talking about the gap between knowing and doing.

So here’s the question I want to leave you with:

What could change if you actually did what you already know matters — consistently — for the next 100 days?

That’s why we built 100 Days to Peak Performance.

And for this August 24 cohort, I’m including a complimentary private 30-minute coaching session with me so we can identify your gap and establish where your next 100 days need to go.

14 weeks. $350 + HST. We begin August 24.

If you’ve been following these posts and recognizing yourself in them, perhaps it’s time we had a conversation.

We’ve spent the week talking about the emotional cost of a real estate transaction.

The buyer feels it.

The seller feels it.

And yes—the Realtor feels it too.

So what do we do about it?

We add structure.

Not another script.

Not more pressure.

And certainly not “just trust the process.”

Give people a process actually worth trusting.

Better onboarding.
Clearer expectations.
Decision criteria.
Communication standards.
Better conversations before things become difficult.

Because we’re never going to remove emotion from real estate.

Nor should we.

Homes involve money, family, security, memories, fear, hope and enormous decisions.

But good professionals can reduce the emotional cost of navigating all of it.

Structure doesn’t make real estate unemotional.

It gives people somewhere to stand when it becomes emotional.

And perhaps that’s one of the most valuable things a Realtor can provide.

+the truth.

Consistency isn’t particularly exciting.

The results of consistency are.

One great day won’t change much. Small, important actions — repeated long enough to compound — can change almost everything.

The question isn’t “Can you do it?”

It’s “Can you keep doing it?”

Join our August 24 cohort and we’ll start with something extra: a complimentary private 30-minute coaching session with me — to identify your gap and sharpen your focus for the 100 days ahead.

The seller wants a result.

The buyer wants certainty.

And somehow, the Realtor is expected to calmly carry both.

Meanwhile, life keeps sending invoices.

Marketing.
Photography.
Gas.
Brokerage.
Car payment.
Mortgage.
Family.

And perhaps you’re 37 showings deep with buyers who still don’t know what they want.

That’s when we start playing bank-account bingo:

Can I spend this today and get paid before something else comes out?

There’s nothing wrong with acknowledging that pressure.

The danger begins when our need for a transaction becomes pressure on the client to make one.

Great Realtors don’t just manage transactions.

They learn to manage their own pressure without passing it on.

30 seconds on that today.

+the truth.

08/20/2026

We don’t talk about this part of real estate enough.

Not because Realtors deserve sympathy.

Because unmanaged financial pressure changes behaviour.

A listing agent fronts money and time hoping there’s a commission at the other end.

A buyer agent can spend weeks—or months—working with people who may never buy.

Meanwhile, life continues collecting its invoices.

Mortgage.

Car.

Credit card.

Brokerage.

Marketing.

Family.

And suddenly you’re playing what I call bank-account bingo:

Can I spend this today and get paid before something else comes out?

Now add an anxious seller or an indecisive buyer.

That’s when an agent’s need for a transaction can quietly become pressure on the client to make one.

That’s the danger.

Professionalism isn’t pretending we don’t feel the pressure.

It’s building a business—and enough structure around ourselves—so our pressure doesn’t become our client’s problem.

Planning feels productive.

Sometimes dangerously productive.

Eventually, though, the question becomes:

What did you actually execute?

A plan is potential. Ex*****on creates progress.

And for those joining our August 24 cohort, I’m adding something personal: a complimentary private 30-minute coaching session with me to identify YOUR gap and establish your 100-day focus.

Your seller has only been on the market for six days.

According to you.

Their clock started months ago.

The decision to move.
The repairs.
The cleaning.
The decluttering.
The staging.
The disruption.
The expectations.

Then the sign goes up.

And they wait.

So when Day 6 feels like Day 60, maybe they’re not being impatient or unrealistic.

Maybe they’ve simply been living this transaction much longer than we have.

Before telling a seller to “give it time,” understand which clock they’re watching.

30 seconds on that today.

+the truth.

08/19/2026

We’ve only been listed a week.”

True.

But that’s our clock.

The seller may have been living this transaction for months.

The decision to sell.

The repairs.

The decluttering.

The packing.

The staging.

The inconvenience.

The expectations.

And finally—the waiting.

Then we show them 7 DOM and wonder why they’re already anxious.

Because emotionally, they’re not on Day 7.

They’re somewhere around Day 77.

Perhaps better seller management begins by recognizing that there are two clocks running in every listing.

The market’s clock.

And your seller’s.

Know which one you’re talking to.
