Self-love might sound a little strange, especially coming from a 45-year-old man like me. It can be awkward to talk about, but Mindi and I are both on this journey, and we've experienced its profound impact on our lives. Today, we're diving deeper into what self-love truly means and how you can practice it in your life. Stick with us, even if it sounds a bit unconventional at first. We promise it's a beautiful thing.

In our conversation, we'll explore how choosing the people you spend the most time with plays a crucial role in your journey. I've personally seen incredible benefits from intentionally selecting the people I surround myself with, and Mindi is witnessing this transformation as well.

In this episode, we're diving deep into the dynamics of selling properties in today's slower market. If you've been facing the challenge of listings that aren't moving as quickly as you'd like, you're not alone. We'll explore the essential steps and strategies to get those "unsellable" listings sold.

Our approach revolves around the Three P's: Pictures, Price, and Property. We'll discuss how to assess and enhance each of these aspects to maximize your chances of success. The key is never giving up and constantly working to improve your listing's appeal and value.

We begin by examining the power of listing photos. Your pictures are today's curb appeal, and we'll show you how to evaluate them critically. Discover how a simple adjustment or enhancement can make a significant difference in attracting potential buyers. We'll also discuss the importance of removing or improving photos and ensuring no vital shots are missing.

Next, we explore the property itself. Are showings going well? Are potential buyers leaving positive remarks, or is something holding them back? We'll share tips on how to make your property shine, from staging to highlighting its best features. We also emphasize the role of open houses in intensifying buyer interest.

Of course, price plays a crucial role in the equation. We'll come back to this, focusing on the value your listing offers to prospective buyers. Learn how to navigate price adjustments and consider other incentives to align your property with market expectations.

But it doesn't stop there. Effective communication with your seller is paramount. We discuss how to establish a strong partnership, ensuring you're both on the same team, working together towards a common goal. You'll discover the importance of regular update calls and how they can transform your relationship with sellers.

Additionally, we touch on strategies like digging deep with potential buyers, reverse prospecting, and expanding your marketing efforts to reach a broader audience. Even if your listing isn't brand new, there are creative ways to reposition it as "now available" and generate fresh interest.

Join us on this episode as we provide valuable insights and actionable steps to sell those "unsellable" listings. Remember, success in real estate is about believing in your ability to adapt, adjust, and ultimately get the job done. Tune in now and be the reason someone smiles today!

For every real estate agent, there's a moment in their career when they're faced with a daunting task - determining the right price for a property. It's not just about matching market expectations, but about striking a delicate balance between what the seller hopes to get and what the buyer is willing to pay.

In this episode of the Agent Rise Podcast, Mindi Kessenich and Neil Mathweg shed light on this intricate dance. Neil shares a heartfelt story about a past client who chose another agent because he didn't believe in the price she hoped for. This incident wasn’t just about the lost listing for Neil, but a profound lesson in the importance of understanding and working collaboratively with clients on pricing decisions.

Mindi highlights a critical point - pricing isn't about dictating a number but offering a perspective. As real estate agents, we are armed with data, comparable market analyses, and years of experience. Yet, the pricing process is a collaboration, where both the agent and the homeowner arrive at the final number together. 

But it's not just about the price tag. It's about the strategy. Do you want to go the retail route, set a fair price, or try an auction approach? Every property, every seller, and every market situation is unique. It's crucial for agents to be flexible in their approach and to be equipped with multiple strategies to find the perfect fit.

In the ever-evolving world of real estate, where market conditions can change overnight, understanding the art of pricing is crucial. Listening to clients, conducting thorough research, and being willing to adapt are the cornerstones of ensuring every property is priced right.

The podcast begins with Mindi recounting her personal journey in becoming a team leader. She shares her initial struggles and fears, and the persistence it took to overcome them. She uses her experience to illustrate the universal concept of an upper limit – the subconscious limitations that impede our forward progress, even when we consciously dream and aim higher.

Neil elaborates on this idea, suggesting that our subconscious mind often pulls us back into our comfort zone, delaying our growth. He stresses the importance of repeatedly affirming our beliefs to retrain our subconscious, eventually catching up with our conscious visions.

They discuss the role of a coach in this journey, pointing out that a coach provides the push required when one is unable to overcome their fears. Through their discussion, the co-hosts illuminate the ways in which individuals can break free from these self-imposed barriers, chase after their dreams, and create new possibilities for success.

This thought-provoking episode concludes with Neil discussing the Dunning-Kruger effect, a psychological pattern often observed when people embark on a new endeavor. With their insightful conversations and real-life examples, Neil and Mindi inspire listeners to confront and overcome their own upper limits.
