You guys are awesome! I obviously have a lot to learn in this industry & this is a great forum for a novice like me. I gave renter a choice to see all 4apts in 1appt (vs 2 now, 2 later) or I'd refer.

A GIANT step in the right direction.

You are seeing your value, taking your business seriously, and demonstrating, in a client focused way, they need to be equally serious.

Renter was initially reluctant to idea but I explained that it would be more efficient--then she complied. I had to make it less about me & my annoyance and more about having productive meetings. I'm trying to make it a positive experience just in case she tries her hand at making a purchase down the road.
