😆Ok.. I joke about handing buyers duct tape before a showing...
But the truth is, you don’t know who could be listening to your conversations
📸Ring cameras. Smart speakers. Security systems.
You should ALWAYS assume someone could be listening.
And yes! What you say inside a home can absolutely impact the outcome.
🫣I’ve seen it happen:
• Buyers openly criticizing the house - Talking about how much they “love it” or “would pay anything”
• Revealing timelines, motivation, or financial flexibility - That information doesn’t always stay private... and in a competitive market, it matters.
🚘Have your honest conversations outside, in the car, or after we leave.
Inside the house?
Tour it. Observe it. Keep it neutral.
Because the goal isn’t just to see the house...it’s to win it.
And sometimes that starts with knowing when to stay quiet.
