Long-term listing agreements are ultimately designed for failure. You wouldn’t go out on a blind date and marry that person right on the spot, would you? It’s the same kind of thing when you interview an agent to sell your property.
Don’t hire the first agent you interview. Talk to at least two to four agents before making a decision. You may know one of them better than the others already but you won’t know their whole history. You need an agent with proven experience.
Typically when you sign a listing deal, you commit to working with that agent for 6 months to a year and there’s no clause to exit the agreement. If things don’t go smoothly with the agent, you are stuck with them until the agreement is up.
On our team, we include a no-questions-asked clause that allows you to get out of the contract. In the state of Arizona, you need to provide the start and end date in a contract. We include this clause so that if you’re not happy with our services, you can cancel at any point. This holds us accountable. We will do what we say we’ll do during the listing appointment. If we don’t, you don’t have to continue working with us.
This is the best way to go into long-term business relationships. Most agents will just tell you what you need to hear and, after they get the listing, you won’t hear from them. The no-questions-asked clause keeps us on our toes and working hard to sell your home.
If you have any questions about today’s video or real estate in general, give us a call or send us an email. We would be happy to help you!
