I followed up with the lady who had the possible option deal in Oklahoma. Apparently overnight she decided to try and get more out of her home than she wanted yesterday.
She had a problem, I offered to help, even agreeing to pay more for the house than she was asking. Now she said they are probably going to list it with a Realtor so they can get more out of the house.
It's their house and their equity, so they are entitled to as much of it as they want. The thing that upsets me a bit is the wasted time on the phone with her, over an hour on two calls.
I want to make sure I am providing a service to these people that they need, but at the same time I have to be able to make some money at it to keep doing it. I can't waste my time talking to people who are 'wanting' to sell. I need to focus my efforts on those who 'need' to sell. There are plenty of people who really are in a bind and need some help to get out of it. I have the expertise to help them out. So it's better for all of is if I make sure the time wasters are wasting my time.
On a side note, the lady mentioned above was very nice to talk to, I really did enjoy our time on the phone together.
Act. Review. Refine. Repeat.
