Real Estate Best Practices PODCAST with Ilya Cobi From William Raveis, The Cobi RE Team in Brookline, MA. In this podcast Ilya, Larry and Jim talk about the characteristics of the best agents and their practices. Not all agents are created equal, there are A students and C students and it is not hard to tell them apart. The best agents use the best practices and technology. In today’s world where we no longer have free access to properties during this pandemic it is even more important than ever you work with people who know the process completely and can keep you informed and prepared to make the decisions on the property along the way.
Real estate agents are everywhere. Everyone has a friend, a relative, a significant other, a friend of a friend or that annoying guy you met at Starbucks, real estate agents are everywhere. OLD CAR is an acronym in real estate on what your agent owes you, Obedience, Loyalty, Disclosure, Confidentiality, Accountability and Reasonable Care/Diligence and this needs more clarification. 
The internet tools, the ways to communicate across an array of tools is important for protecting your information in a safe and timely way. Knowing the correct ways to market the property to the buyers and helping them adjust to the process during Covid-19.
I am intrigued with the “excellent educator” characteristic appears in the 7 habits of the highly effective agents. People know so much about real estate and what they don’t know they can look up, but someone who studies the variations on the facts is far better to handle and educate you on what you are to expect and the best ways to stay focused on what you want and need. People need and deserve a professional skilled in the process and steeped in the technology. This podcast is a conversation and this topic. Real Estate Best Practices PODCAST with Ilya Cobi
Reasonable care and diligence really means getting something done. When you take these words individually and in the order they are given, this is not the correct order of duties your professional agent will deliver. YourStories Realty, it's all about you and so the first order of business is understanding what it is you want to accomplish, how and in what time frame. It is only when you fully understand the goals, wishes, wants and needs can you apply your skills to the task. No clients are alike, no houses are alike, no neighborhoods are alike each person and place is approached in real time so that in the game adjustments can be made.
In the process of real estate, and make no mistake it is a process of actions, forms and dates, you will always have at least 3 Uh-oh! moments and 1 jump off the cliff moment. It is part of the process. Now agents can always remember that one easy, no hassle transaction, but this is not the norm. There area always issues that come up. Think about it, a house or a condo is a construction made of materials and filled with electronic devices, glassed in, doors, driveways, septic systems, free and clear title, easements, power of attorney, order of documents and signing...just saying there is a lot of things that can go sideways. Emotions are a part of it and usually what derail the sale. It is emotional to choose a house for your home, or choose to leave that home for a new house. A house is what you buy, it is walls, doors, location and price; a home is what you sell because of the memories you created while living there.
