A Few Of My Real Estate Pet Peeves

  • Real estate professionals who don’t know how to use their calculators and can’t figure (or at least look up) a mortgage payment on the fly.
  • Real estate professionals who don’t know how to measure and calculate square footage (at least good enough to tell if the tax records are inaccurate).
  • Real estate professionals who can fill in the blanks of their State approved purchase agreement but can’t walk through it with a buyer or seller providing an explanation for each boilerplate paragraph.
  • Real estate professionals who stop at ‘No,’ when trying to get a deal closed or financed.  The answer to ‘No’  is always the same:  ‘What do we need to do/add/change/find to make it work?’ and ‘What can I do turn this around?’
  • Real estate professionals who can’t do basic financial pre-qualification of a buyer. (Though important, this is not a substitute for an in-depth discussion with a lender).
  • Real estate professionals who can’t accurately (within a reasonable tolerance) calculate seller net proceeds and buyers’ funds needed to close quickly and on a legal pad if necessary.
  • Real estate professionals who are afraid of the Internet . . . or even uncomfortable with it.
  • Real estate professionals who can’t clearly explain, in five minutes or less, how they and their company are different and better for buyers and sellers.
  • Real estate professionals who don’t spend money on marketing.
  • Real estate professionals who expect the MLS to sell all of their listings.
  • Real estate professionals who don’t constantly question why things are the way they are and how they could be better for the buying and selling public.
