Profitable Conversations with Estate Agents Property Magic Podcast

- Careers
In this week’s show, Simon tells you how to have profitable conversations with estate agents, how to position yourself in order to be taken more seriously, how to get the best deals, and how to make low offers without losing credibility.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Estate agents should be a very fine source of deals, but their view of property investors may well be influenced by poor interactions in the past. It’s up to you to prove that you’re not a time waster.
Framing your conversation well will create an empowered situation. By making your estate agent feel like the expert, you empower them to talk more openly.
If you are investing with capital at the ready, and if you have the means to progress with a purchase, then there’s no harm in showing this proof to an estate agent. It’ll help them to realise that you’re serious.
When ascertaining the renovation and improvement costs with the agent, always ensure that they are the ones totalling the costs as you talk. This will give them a much better sense of what you can spend, and the potential costs to you.
BEST MOMENTS
‘If you go in with the wrong approach, you might get put in the same basket as all those who aren’t very good’
‘Estate agents think they know everything about property’
‘If you do this, it gives you so much more credibility’
‘You want this renovation bill to be as much as possible'
