Summary
Ep 64: How to Deal with a Bad Agent
In this episode, we dive into how to navigate tough transactions when you're working with a not-so-great agent on the other side. Whether they're slow to respond, rude, negligent, or completely MIA, we've got real-life examples and mindset tips to help you stay professional and protect your client.
Takeaways:
- Set clear boundaries and communicate expectations early.
- Use systems and templates to avoid confusion and reduce stress.
- Don't let someone else's bad behavior drag you down—kindness and professionalism win.
- Document communication and be prepared to step up if the other agent drops the ball.
- Keep your client informed without oversharing the drama.
- If necessary, escalate to a broker—but always stay professional.
