The 6-Month Lie That Costs Agents Clients

Whether you're dealing with buyers who keep pushing back their search or sellers who decide to renovate instead of move, this episode will change how you approach client conversations.

Matt and Garrett share real stories, practical strategies, and even some unconventional tactics (like bringing friends on broker tours) that top agents use to stay top-of-mind.

This episode is perfect for real estate agents who want to build deeper relationships, generate more referrals, and stop losing clients to the "maybe next year" mentality.

We get into:

- Why focusing on client timelines kills your business (and what to focus on instead)

- The real reason people buy and sell homes (hint: it's not about spring markets)

- How to keep clients engaged even when they say they're "not ready"

- Creative ways to help clients dream and visualize their future home

- Why showing beats telling every single time

- The broker tour strategy that could transform your client relationships

Truth is people move to solve pain or gain pleasure - time is just a distraction

When clients lose sight of their "why," they'll always choose the easier path of staying put.

Your job isn't to sell real estate - it's to help people navigate from where they are to where they want to be.

Detaching from outcomes while staying connected to people builds the strongest referral business.
