There is a great deal an agent can do for you. But there are also things we either can’t do or don’t want to. Here’s a list.
WE CAN:
get you the best possible deal–enough to make the commission more than worth it
listen when you need an ear
stand up for you and fight your battles, with passion, experience and skill
read and make suggestions as to salability
be on your side no matter what
update you as to the state of the market
inform you of changes and trends in the business
talk you off a ledge
WHAT WE CAN’T OR WON’T DO
Sell a book that isn’t good
Tolerate unprofessionalism or lying
Lend you money
Ask for unreasonable things on your behalf
Be available to you any minute of the day or night
Work when we’re sick
Work for free
