Citizens vs. Real Estate Agents
When holding an open house, it is customary to give feedback to the listing agent about who visited the open house and what took place. Any crumbs leading up to and including whether the house is about to sell. Part of this feedback includes highlighting the number of visitors through the open house as well as distinguishing those who were agents, vs those who may be potential buyers.
This is what I call "citizens vs agents". Or the "clients vs. robots" model. It is reminiscent of the kids in the hall skit where business men would exchange business cards, and then proceed to sniff them. This is because the agents often have the same repetitious conversation with each other, and rarely does something new come out of it.
Another thing that I wonder is how the general public sees Real Estate Agents. I have read various blogs where seemingly normal people harbor a disdain for those in the Real Estate profession. In
What if Real Estate Agents were as revered as sports heroes? What if they made Real Estate Agent trading cards. Wouldn't it be great if children grew up wanting to join the ranks of Real Estate Agents?
