Got "Sour" Milk?
Tweet |
Have you ever poured a glass of milk and then gone to take a sip and - yuck! - discovered it had gone sour? There's not much more you can do except pour it down the sink (and the carton it came from). Right? And it seems that at the mere mention of certain real estate agent's names (or brokers), it's like drinking sour milk. And you may have even just had a name of a particular person in the business that just came to your mind that fits this mold. And was it because you were on one side of a transaction and they were on the other side, and boy, did they ever drop the ball. Or maybe they were just plain deceptive and conniving and now this is how you think about them, "I'm gonna avoid working with that person again if it's the last thing I do!" Is there anyone like that in real estate as regards you? It goes without saying that we don't want to be that person that when our names are mentioned it makes everybody say, "Yuck!" And I guess this is where the Golden Rule could apply: Treat others like you would want to be treated. That seems simple enough. Would you want somebody to drop the ball on you? Then don't drop the ball on somebody else. Would you want somebody to be deceptive and conniving towards you? Then don't be deceptive and conniving towards somebody else. It's what separates the good agents from the bad. And, in the long run, it's the good agents that most often come out ahead. After all, all the money and closed escrows in the world aren't worth having a bad/sour name.
