Summary
Bad Agent Behaviors: What Not to Do in Real Estate
This week we're calling out all the unprofessional behaviors that make real estate harder for everyone. From sloppy paperwork and ghosting to combative negotiating styles and unethical tactics, this episode is your mirror moment. Katy and Alissa share real stories and tough love on what bad agent behaviors look like—and how to avoid them.
You'll learn:
- How neglecting small details can cost you big time
- The importance of strong communication (and not ghosting)
- Why being overly combative or slow to respond kills deals
- What it means to be a "Pop-Tart Agent" (and why it's a problem)
- The difference between being helpful vs. pushy
- How not to treat your fellow agents
- When "just being a door opener" isn't enough
- Why consistency and professionalism always win
This episode is packed with honesty, laughter, and actionable reminders to help you stand out as the kind of agent everyone wants to work with. Don't miss the follow-up episode next week: how to deal with bad agent behavior—whether it's coming from someone else or… you. 😉
