149: The Forever Home Myth

Picture it: you have your first consultation call or appointment with a new buyer and they adamantly state they are buying their FOREVER HOME. Oh good. No pressure. Even worse is the pressure clients put on themselves to find the perfect home when they think it is their forever home. It can honestly be paralyzing. In this episode we uncover all the reasons that a “forever home” might not be yours, well, forever. We address the importance of thinking about the future use of your home when you are trying to stay there long term. We also share how you need to approach this type of buyer and how you can serve them best. We uncover the nuances of home tenure and learn that the stat itself isn’t very easy to find. Settle in, we need to talk… about forever. Disclaimer: it may take a slightly morbid turn.
