A real estate agent receives an email from a seller pausing their listing due to stock market volatility. The agent calls it the worst email possible because they've already invested time and money, and now face lost commission and uncertainty about whether the seller will ever relist.
Let's play a game. Let's say on that same note, let's say the agent that's listening right now just got an email and it wasn't a phone call. It was just, you know, hey, Phil, we've made the decision based upon the stock market and what we're seeing in the market that we're going to put selling our home on hold. So let's assume that, yep, I was going to list and I haven't. Okay. So, so I was going to list, but, you know, we've just decided based on what we're seeing in the stock market and everything we're reading in the news that right now it's just time for us to be on hold. But, you know, when we're ready, You're our guy. We'll reach out to you. Send.
Okay. I mean, that's the worst email in the, in the world to receive as a real estate agent. It's a breakup. It's like, because, because for most agents, like, I got the listing, you've already decided like how much commission that's going to be. You've hypothetically spent the money. Many have actually physically spent the money because like the listing is the key to the— like, like, so they've told everybody they've made this money and now all of a sudden it's being whipped away.
Yes.
Here's what I wouldn't do is I wouldn't reply with an email.
