Do you ever feel that the skills you are lacking are also causing you to lose potential real estate business? Just remember, these characteristics are neither good nor bad. This means your perspective can help mold what kind of real estate agent you want to be.
Here are a list of strengths that can also be weaknesses:
Sometimes being candid can rub people the wrong way. However, with you being the real estate expert, many will come to appreciate the honesty that you deliver whether they want to hear it or not. You'll find yourself in the situation of being the bearer of bad news from time to time, but it's better to maintain open communication with your clients than hide something from them.
Some people will mistake kindness for weakness. However this empathy will allow you to build meaningful relationships easier because of the rapport you are able to build with them. The client experience one offers is a reason that many agents will earn repeat business and more real estate referrals.
Your quest for perfection can be a hinderance to your productivity. However, this attention to detail can help you stand out among other agents. Maintaining the branding colors on your real estate website can help establish your place in the local real estate market. Or, if you are big into numbers, knowing your performance stats can help you improve month after month.
Having a competitive nature is a double-edged sword. You might sometimes walk over people on your path to the top. Don't forget, though, your fellow agents are your peers. The community of real estate agents works with each other on a daily basis. Learning from each other helps improve the other person, whether it is through active teaching or careful observation. The better other agents are, the better you can become.
What others may perceive as "aggressiveness," you might call "enthusiasm." This might cause you to clash with others that are just as enthusiastic. What's great about this, however, is this passion to help buyers and sellers is what makes you an amazing real estate agent.
