This is something not everybody is talking about but we believe that it's something worth reminding everyone, whatever industry we are in. 

Do you agree that mutual respect goes a long way in working relationships?

A LITTLE TALK ABOUT RESPECT IN THE REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY

Hey there! So today I just wanted to take a couple of minutes to talk to you about the respect or lack of it from a lot of our customers.
And we experience that every day and to a great extent, I don't blame the customer as well for not having the trust and respect for the real estate professional that they are working with. 

WHY IS THERE A LOSS OF RESPECT TO PROFESSIONALS IN THE REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY

Because there are so many untrained people in the business then they do cause a lot of problems but at the same time whether they have experience or they don't have experience I think just on a very human level, we need to provide some kind of respect to the other person who's working for you.

It's hard for me being in the business for 18 plus years to come across people who firstly I feel are misogynistic because I'm a woman so they treat me differently and I'm not making this you know stuff up. It's happened to me and I know that and the other thing is that they think we're just you know lousy brokers just you know trying to make a commission but all you need is one wrong person who can destroy your financial future and also with vendors.

I've noticed that, you know, customers talk to them really badly it doesn't mean that we are uneducated people or inexperienced people or don't know what we're doing. The profession should be the last thing with which you judge people and provide them on an elevated status or put them at the bottom of the rung.

A CALL FOR CHANGE WITHIN THE REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY

I think as a society we have lost that art of being kind and respectful to others so please do that because you know what if you are kind and respectful to the other person across the room for it from you might end up getting better service from them. 

If they are a vendor so just keep that in mind just as you would like to be talked to and treated well the other people across the room also want the same.
