I DON’T TALK PRICE FIRST. HERE’S WHY.. 🤔
Part 2..

Most Realtors walk in and immediately start talking numbers. I do it differently.

I have a two-step listing approach.

First, I want to sit down face to face with the homeowner. I want to make sure they like my energy, my passion, my ideas and most importantly, that they actually want to work with me.

Because how can I accurately critique a property I haven’t even walked through yet?

Step two is the data. Once we know we’re a good fit, then we dive deep into the market, comparable sales, competition, pricing strategy and everything else that goes into getting the home positioned correctly.

The data matters.

But the relationship comes first.

That’s how I believe you should approach a listing. 🚀

Out Door Knocking And I Got a Hug I’ll Never Forget ❤️

Meet Angela…

She introduced me to her mother, welcomed me with the biggest smile, and before I left, she gave me one of the biggest hugs I’ve ever received while door knocking.

And it reminded me why I keep doing this.

You never know who is on the other side of the door.

We spend so much of our lives afraid to knock, afraid of rejection, afraid of being told no, afraid of what might happen.

But sometimes, on the other side of that door is a person you were meant to meet.

A conversation.
An opportunity.
A connection.
Maybe even a little reminder that there is still a lot of good in the world.

That’s why I’m Door Knocking Connecticut.

Because you never know what’s waiting on the other side. 🚪❤️

And Angela… thank you for the hug. I won’t forget it.
