tman, the phone conversation goes more like this.
buyer: I'm calling about 123 Elm, what is the price?
Agent: You have good taste, that home is getting tons of calls, It is $99,000 for a 3 bed 2 bath with large kitchen and outdoor patio, is that what you are looking for?
Buyer: really we only want to spend $89,000...
Agent: Well all real estate is negotiable, but before we start making offers we need to find out it really does fit your family needs, would you like to make an appointment to see the inside?
Buyer: sure, how about tomorrow...
I have seen people look at a flyer and say, "I don't like the wall color and the kitchen looks too small". You cannot sell a home by pictures alone.
Tman, my job is to sell a home, and get them inside it.
also, why would I try to take them to other homes, if I have a listed that I NEED TO SELL? If the home is out of the sellers price range, then YES, I will try to get them into a home that is in there price range. - Thu Mar 13 2008, 21:37
