In October, The Lones Group hosted our listing presentation class for real estate agents – Stop Losing Listings You Should Have Won. In that class, we offered 15 spots to those agents who wanted to revamp their listing presentation and be part of a case study. Well, those spots got taken very quickly. That case […]
I’m teaching at the Lynnwood Convention Center. The first thing you have to remember is that when someone asks you to cut your commission, they are being motivated by something.
