Do you want a guide at your side, or a closer at your back?
Yesterday I talked about Jerry Jones, maybe the most un-okay guy in the world.
Today, let’s talk about maybe the most okay group you’ll ever meet:
Real estate agents.
You know the type. Fancy car. Designer clothes. Buzzwords. Always closing. Talking fast.
Not the best listener. (To be polite.)
Here’s the truth: most of them aren’t making anywhere near the money they project. But they feel they have to look successful. Image is everything.
That means taking any listing they can, even if it’s not their lane. Fake it til you make it.
Land, houses, whatever. They’ll wing it. Say whatever they need to say to get your signature before you talk to anyone else.
And when winging it goes wrong, ethics can get loose.
Best case? You’ve got a funny story about hiring the wrong person.
Worst case? You’ve got a horror story.
I’m a little better at reading people than most. But this one isn’t hard to spot, even if you don’t see exactly what’s going on. You just know something feels off.
If you’ve ever hired one, you saw the warning signs.
But you did it anyway.
Why?
Probably because you told yourself:
“They’re a great salesperson. That’s who I want on my side.”
Except the real sales job was done on you.
Here’s the question:
If someone has to work that hard to get your business, how hard will they work to protect your interests?
I don’t really look the part. I don’t need to.
I’m not trying to sell you — I’m trying to guide you.
If I’m doing my job right, you might not see me until closing.
If we do meet, you’ll notice no designer logos (I don’t advertise for free), no buzzwords, no pressure.
And no pitch.
If any selling happens, it might be you telling me why we’re a good fit.
If you want a pitchman, there’s plenty to choose from.
