... I was astonished to see my father sitting at the table with an auctioneer agent standing over him shouting into his ear and banging his fist on the table in front of him saying ...
When I was in my early teens my dad decided to sell his property. On the day of the auction, I wandered into the kitchen where I was astonished to see my father sitting at the table with an auctioneer agent standing over him shouting into his ear and banging his fist on the table in front of him yelling . . .
"Are we on the MAAARKET Mr M__,
ARE WE ON THE MARKET!!".
I watched my father's face go as white as a sheet. My dad had always been a quietly spoken man. They were clearly pressuring him, and who even knew what "on the market" meant? (I know what it means now, the agents were saying "give us permission to sell it for less than you want!" so that the hammer could go down and they could declare a sale and the agent could get paid - it was all about them).
I never forgot the despicable high pressure tactics of that day, of these men pressuring my dad, and using "agency language". My dad had sacrificed so much to build that house.
I thought, "there must be a better way". I was determined to find out. Years later I became a real estate agent myself and studied negotiation in it's highest forms and I discovered that there IS a better way. First and foremost, sellers deserve to get the best price possible when selling their homes, keep control of the sale, and be treated with respect.
The better way involves a specific strategy that gets the absolute highest price in the market without stress or intimidation - so let me show you how, get in touch with me today.
