Answer The Phone, Answer The Question

 

Some buyers just want specific questions answered. They are not ready to  volunteer anything about themselves.

 

Answer your phone!

I always give the information and ask if they want more details. It is easier to find out about the caller with a give and take dialogue.

 

Caller  "How much is the house and how many bedrooms?"

Answer "The price is $9,000,944.00 and has 17 bedrooms. Is that large enough? "

Caller "How big is the master bedroom?"

Answer "30' x 45...Would you like the sizes of the other 16?"

Caller "How long has it been on the market?"

Answer " A little longer than forever. They are not in a hurry. When will you be ready to move?"

Many times the potential buyer is more at ease and willing to share their needs.

 

Many years ago, when looking for a home, I would  inquire about the price or number of bedrooms.

Immediately the barrage started. The agent would ask for my social security number, my firstborn's name and who I was related to....well maybe it wasn't that bad, but you get the idea. 

I vowed when entering real estate I would just give requested information.
