You may have seen my past video on how to be a great listing agent. Well, today I wanted to share with you a few additional qualities of great listing agents.

First of all, risk takers question everything. This means going over all the details in order to have a conversation with sellers about any of the concerns, issues, or challenges you might face.

A great listing agent is in the people business, not the home business. We want to understand both your fears and aspirations so we can provide the highest level of service possible.

Additionally, a great listing agent doesn’t rest. They should and will work tirelessly to help sellers achieve their goals.

Great listing agents also don’t buy into or accept the word “no.” When making a deal or striving toward a goal, listing agents should think of the word “no” as a stepping stone to a “yes.”

This is because we want to help you overcome obstacles in your sale.

Whether those roadblocks are large or small, a quality listing agent will be excited by challenge. Someone who is a really smart listing agent will always get to the bottom of an issue either by their own means or by reaching out to someone who can help.

With this kind of determination we are brought to our final point, which is that a risk-taking agent always has a mind full of crazy ideas. Agents like myself will always be thinking of new ways to make things happen for our clients. No matter the goal, we want to help make it happen.
