    You know the property. But do you know the buyer?

    Amanda Jordan moved from executive recruitment into Manhattan real estate, where understanding people matters as much as understanding the market. On Sip, Sell, Repeat, Dr. Cynthia Tant, Broker-Owner of Gulf Coast Home Experts in Pensacola, explores how that experience shapes the way Amanda works with buyers. They discuss co-op ownership, why buyers pay more for move-in-ready homes, and how referrals connect clients across New York and Florida. Before your next client conversation, listen to what buyers are looking for beyond the property itself. About Amanda Jordan: Amanda Jordan is a senior global real estate advisor with Sotheby’s International Realty in New York City. A former executive recruiter, she focuses on Manhattan, particularly the Upper East Side. In this episode, you’ll learn: Understanding buyer motivations beyond budget and bedroom count Matching buyers with Manhattan co-ops or condos based on ownership requirements Explaining the appeal of move-in-ready homes when renovations require approval Preparing cash buyers for board applications and interviews Building referral relationships that support informed client handoffs Key questions answered: Q: What do you own when you buy a co-op? A: You buy shares in the corporation that owns the building rather than owning the apartment outright. Q: Why can a one-bedroom cost more than a two-bedroom in Manhattan? A: Location can outweigh bedroom count. Examples discussed include a $6 million one-bedroom and a $1 million two-bedroom. Q: What price qualifies as luxury real estate in Manhattan? A: In the market discussed, luxury starts at $4 million and ultra-luxury at $10 million.

    Think you have to cold call 5 strangers a day to succeed in real estate? Sheri Putzke built a 21-year career proving that authenticity beats scripts. In this episode of the Sip, Sell, Repeat Podcast, host Dr. Cynthia Tant sits down with Sheri Putzke, a premier agent with Windermere Real Estate celebrating 21 years in residential and new construction sales. Sheri shares how an introverted mother of young children became the family breadwinner, what sitting in model homes for 10 years taught her about building realities, and how she built a dual-state business serving Seattle and Palm Springs. 🎙 In this episode, you'll learn: ✔️ How to build a thriving real estate referral base without cold calling ✔️ What 10 years on-site in model homes reveals about construction quality and resale inspections ✔️ Hidden expenses in new construction: appliances, blinds, and interest rate spikes ✔️ Why tech layoffs and proposed wealth taxes are shifting Seattle buyers to Palm Springs second homes Key questions answered in this episode: Q: How can introverted agents generate leads effectively? A: Focus on your natural sphere of influence and shared passions (such as fitness, pets, or community groups) rather than aggressive cold calling. Q: What is the biggest financial risk when purchasing a new build?
