Just as I expected, we've had a busy weekend of showing property here on Lake Oconee. It can be difficult when every homeowner is present...tho that can be a good thing. There were lots of folks having real lake fun yesterday, jet skis buzzing, kids laughing, dogs barking.....the waft of smoky rib fragrance....man! I truly learn something new (or I renew) everytime I show, but this weekend has been unique.
One homeowner literally followed my customers and I from room-to-room-to-room, explaining every little detail about the house....where they bought that furniture, how tough it was for them to make a carpet selection (house is nine years old for heaven's sake!), just how hard it had been to establish their rose garden in this middle GA red clay. They actually talked about the good things.....and the bad, and that's not good!!! "Yes, the neighbors' screaming music,thundering jet boat, and jeering beerfest are pretty loud today, but that only happens on weekends from April til Oct.!!!!!" My prospects hadn't said a word about the neighbors' party until the homeowners brought it up. Gosh, I'd rather find dirty underwear on the bathroom floor than listen to a blow-by-blow of the customer service wars between Lowe's and Home Depot! My point here is obvious I hope, ask the homeowners to leave when you make an appointment, period, even on Memorial Day, unless of course, they're bent over the grill cooking ribs !
