Signs your closing experience is costing you referrals you never knew you lost:
🚩 Your client texted you asking for updates instead of calling the title company
🚩 The closing ran long because things were not fully prepared
🚩 The CD arrived the day before closing
🚩 You could not name a single thing your title company did proactively on that file
🚩 Your client's review was glowing about you, and silent about the closing experience
Every one of those is a referral that did not happen.
Nobody tells you when a closing experience cost you a referral. You just never get the call. 😬
I was today years old when I realized "fine" closings are the most expensive closings. Not because anything went wrong. But because nothing went memorable.
Your clients remember the ending of every experience most. The closing table is that ending. If it was disorganized, stressful, or just okay, that is the last thing they carry with them when they go home with their keys.
How many referrals have you lost from closings that felt "fine"? You will never be able to count them. But you can stop it from happening.
Save this and share it with a Realtor who needs to hear it.
