The Desired Customer

A realtor is such a profession where the worker would get to meet and observe a very wide range and variety of people. The job of a realtor may not be a very glamorous one requiring the same task day in and day out. Go to one house and the next and the next and then back to the starting point with another client and the next and then repeat. The job of a realtor is some what like the shampoo process lather, rinse and repeat. Even with the mundane routine the only high light that the realtor faces is the variety and novelty in each and every client that he/she meets and goes house viewing with. The realtor is always meeting new people and the best thing that a realtor can have as an advantage is a good charming personality and salesman qualities.

After all take away the big name of realtor and what you are left with is a salesman one that sells you homes. The job of a realtor is not much different from that of a car salesman. He too shows off the house like a car through photos then lets people go inside it and check it out like taking a car for a test drive. And at the very last explains all the pros and cons of the house just like the salesman does with a car. The success if selling a house is a two way street which requires that the client and realtor both connect well together and strike up a deal together. The clients come in all shapes and sizes and each requires a unique style of dealing with.

There are firstly the internet geeks who come too prepared and can prove as a threat to the realtor they require very careful dealing. Then there is the miser who comes with the intention to by the best with very less. They require to be dealt with using a lot of firm attitudes and then their long term advantages. And lastly you have the women who come in full of emotion and need to be dealt with accordingly. To the realtor the woman is the best and most preferred type of client as they are easy to convince and the small things are what matter to them. Women choose cuteness over the practical things; they choose coziness over the smart buy and also can get convinced to buy a house with the simple fact that the kitchen is big.
