About this episode
With the massively low inventory currently available, the buyer's market continues to be strong, and Matt and Garrett are beginning to witness some agents get a little sloppy and skip some steps of their process as a result. Today's podcast is all about the need to complete all of the steps, especially the pre-listing inspection, regardless of the marketplace. Our hosts begin by showcasing the many benefits to this inspection, including protecting yourself and the seller, the moral responsibility that agents have to ensure a thorough representation of the property, and the opportunity to relieve some of the stress inherent in each of these transactions. They also stress the necessity of having a set plan for how you do real estate which you implement regardless of the type of marketplace, as well as the dangers of skipping steps, and the importance of making things easy for all involved. As they note, this market is going to change at some point, and today they share their valuable advice on how to ensure that your process remains complete and effective both now and in the future.
