What’s your biggest strength when selling property?
I really take the time to listen to what buyers actually want and don’t push them into looking at unsuitable properties – this avoids wasting time of all parties involved namely the seller, buyer and agent (possibly a tenant too). Matching people up with THEIR needs and preferences is key. It’s like playing match maker but with real estate.
