Whether you are a new agent or seasoned veteran in today's market, get ready for ten insights from Top Agent Magazine. Sit down, grab your popcorn, and tune in to "How To Not Lose a Client in 10 Days!"

Rule number 1:

Prioritize Client Well-being Over Transactions.

Something we hear time and time again from agents featured in Top Agent Magazine is that their business and relationship with a client is not just about the transaction but more about devotion to serving their clients. Suppose a client suspects you are only eager for a quick commission versus their welfare; they may move on to a new agent who puts their welfare ahead of a transaction. Agents who make it in real estate care about their clients’ welfare while guiding them through the homebuying journey. If an agent is more transaction-focused than client-centric, this is a sure way to lose a client.

Rule number 2:

Be Transparent in Property Disclosures.

Never gloss over issues with a property. Be transparent with your client as you disclose everything you know about a property to protect the interest of a client and their family. When an agent openly communicates with their clients, whether a structural issue or faulty plumbing in the home, it prepares them to understand the magnitude of what home repairs need addressing before purchasing. If an agent conceals property issues for their client to discover later, they may lose future business.

Rule number 3:

Practice Prompt and Consistent Communication.
