I told you so…
By James Wedgeworth on June 23rd, 2010Someone recently asked me what the most frustrating part of my job as a Realtor was.
I think it has to be when I try to give people advice based on solid market analysis and they do not listen.
I asked a dentist friend of mine what the most frustrating part of his job was. He told me that it was the fact that people would not take his advice. He would tell a client that they need to have their tooth pulled and they put it off and then they end up calling him in the middle of the night with an emergency extraction.
I’ve had two sales recently that ended up closing for less than what they had previous offers for.
I guess this is probably one of the hardest parts of a lot of people’s jobs – sometimes people won’t listen, and I think people end up paying more for the advice they don’t take.
