How would your business be impacted if you didn’t have any overpriced listings? Sellers that believe their houses are better are a drain to our wallets, our emotions, and to our business. Learning how to present a market study in an influential way is an incredibly important skill. Using information from what I learned in listening to 99 list presentations from the strongest agents, talking to listing gurus, and interviewing consumer psychologists I created this program.
