EP 72: Why Sellers Don’t Trust You & How to Change That Instantly

  • Summary

  • Ever wonder how to break through a seller’s doubts and build real trust? In this episode of Properties to Profits, I’m diving into one of the most effective tools in real estate sales—third-party stories. I’ll share how using real-life success stories from past sellers can help you connect, reassure, and ultimately close better deals.

    I’ll walk you through a real conversation I had with a seller facing bankruptcy and explain how sharing similar experiences from past clients helped her see a clear path forward. You’ll learn how storytelling can eliminate objections, create trust, and make it easier for sellers to move forward with confidence. Plus, I’ll share a few key ethical considerations to ensure you’re using this strategy the right way.
