Tucson Real Estate Sellers, the lender matters. Your agent should know the loan officers reputation

Speaking of webinars, yesterday we did a 1-hour interview with Greg Peckman, Alex Jimenez, Tony Ray Baker, and Hans Brunner. Now these guys are all top-producing loan officers and real estate agents at their craft, and we talked about the importance of building a team. You know, having the right people around you in this market is an absolute— you gotta have it. All you need to do to check this out is go to the Frank and Brian page on Facebook, and it's all right there for free. This thing was great. And now if you like the content, leave us a message down below or give us one of those thumbs up things. That really helps. Now, if you think I'm wrong about building a team, I want you to stew on this for a second. The number of previously owned houses on the market during the month of January was the lowest for any January in the National Association of REALTOR® records. This goes back to 1999. So that means now we've got less inventory than we've had in over 19 years of recorded history and probably goes back a hell of a lot further than that. So for a loan officer, Do you really think it matters what real estate agent you hand your leads off to? Do you think it matters that you're communicating with the listing agent on every single one of your prequals starting on minute one? Not only to try to earn the business of that agent, but from a more pragmatic standpoint of getting your offers accepted over other offers. And the answer is emphatically yes. I mean, in our interview yesterday with top-producing real estate agent Tony Ray Baker, he said that he looks at not only the offer, but the agent and the lender on the other side and will counsel his seller accordingly. Which he should do, by the way. He has a legal obligation to do this. Guys, your team matters.
