Openn Accelerate training - Brent Ilicic
Negotiation skills separate the top agents from the average
As an agent, your core job is to get your clients the best price possible. When the goals of vendors and buyers inevitably clash, it creates a challenge that can make or break the deal.
That is why a skilled agent is necessary to align their needs and get them to meet in the middle. It means you need to be able to have tough conversations. Not just with your buyers, but your vendors too.
In session, Will Ainsworth and Brent Ilicic will join forces to share their vendor negotiating and communication strategies.
You don’t need to be an auctioneer to apply these learnings to your property campaigns.
