If you know Mark, you know he really doesn’t like surprises—and let’s be honest, who does? Whether it’s your A/C suddenly dying in the middle of summer or a dentist casually dropping the word root canal after the fact (true story from Sarah), nobody enjoys being blindsided.
In this episode, we dig into how surprise is the enemy of trust—especially in a relationship-driven business like real estate. Communication isn’t just helpful, it’s essential. We’ll talk about the importance of setting clear expectations, being honest even when it’s uncomfortable, and getting ahead of issues before they turn into emergencies.
Whether it's warning clients about competing cash offers or preparing them for the unexpected, being proactive can make all the difference. Because in business—and in life—it’s always better to be in control than in catch-up mode.
