Sellers and buyers alike often complain that real estate agents don\u2019t truly listen to their wishes and concerns. Although this may not always be the case, sometimes it\u2019s a simple miscommunication that can cause these unwelcome feelings.\n\nWhen a client has a wish list it can be difficult to show them a house that ticks all the boxes!

Unfortunately, this can cause a bit of an issue for you real estate agents who depend on commissions.\n\nUnless you are already #1 in your area, you likely feel this slow pace every winter.
