Buying Or Selling Real Estate Is A People Business

Buying or selling a property can be stressful at times depending on who does what, what happens, what doesn't happen and any number of unforeseen situations that might or might not occur.

Although there are always guidelines, regulations and laws to follow, real estate sales do differ from one transaction to another.

Buying and selling a property is a people business and for that reason a lot can depend on how quickly and thoroughly each person does his or her job. So, if you are buying or selling a property just remember that people don’t always do what they say they will do.

They don’t always keep appointments. Some people will tell you they will bring their husband or wife for a look through the house – and they never return. Others might tell you they will call around on Friday to sign the contract – they never turn up. Some home sellers don't clean the houses or clear away the clutter before before an open home or before settlement of the contract. Some buyers don't arrange finance on time. Some agents say the wrong things.

So, as you can see any number of things can and often do go wrong. Sometimes it is because people are unreliable, disorganized, dishonest, or even downright incompetent.

It is normal for these things to happen, SO DON’T LET IT GET YOU DOWN! The main thing to make sure that you do you job thoroughly and efficiently and have a plan of action to make sure that others do a good job too.
