Hard Conversations and Difficult Decisions! There's a side of real estate you don't see online: the hard conversation and sometimes even harder decisions that happen behind closed doors. People joke that besides being marketing pros, contract wizards, and construction know-it-alls, Realtors also wear the hats of counselors. Some of the toughest conversations are about why to sell and even tougher ones come up when a sale hits trouble.
For those with friends in the business, one of the hardest calls is this: do you hire your friend, who may not specialize in your area or work full-time, over the neighborhood expert who's there for you full-time, has a deep book of business, and the resources your friend might not have? And if things get difficult and you need to have those hard conversations and make hard decisions, you need to think about who will be helping you and who do you actually want at the table with you? If a situation comes up that upsets you, how does that affect the friendship?
So when you're considering who represents your most important asset, where decisions can cost you tens of thousands of dollars, a lawsuit, or worse, a friendship, keep that in mind.
This is very important financial decision, not a gift to a friend. Good business decisions save or make you money. Gifts cost you money.
