“You want to develop a negotiation strategy yourself or follow a process so that you don’t get into a situation where you’re making a bit of a rash decision, maybe an emotional decision, that (for) some people can cost them tens of thousands of dollars” Matt 1:16

“The goal of asking the right questions to answer those first three points, to identify whether or not there’s a point of information that you can leverage which will result in a cheaper purchase price” Matt 5:44

“Every real estate agent in our experience operates their sales strategy and their negotiations in a slightly different way” Matt 7:08

“The next step to understanding buyer activity is asking the agent questions that will hopefully get you the answers on serious buyer interest” Matt 11:17
