On this episode of the Realtor Fight Club podcast, hosts Jenn Murtland and Monica Weakley are padded up for a battle today. If the sellers are offering below your accepted commission fee, do you ask the buyers to make up the difference? Warning, this one is a cage match!Episode Highlights: Jenn is playing mind games by allowing Monica to go first.There is no way that Monica is going to ask the buyers to make up the difference.Monica doesn’t think that there’s any reason to pass the burden onto the buyer.Respectfully, Jenn disagrees with Monica to a point, but the buyers don’t always pay for it.Jenn makes sure to go draw up a buyer contract that includes the possibility that the buyer may have to pay.Monica does not require her buyers to sign the contract but instead uses it as a talking point.Though she doesn’t think that agents should let the contract go unsigned, Monica still does it.Most agents make the mistake of skipping the consultation completely.Jenn has dealt with multiple instances where her commission was higher than what the seller was offering.Sometimes, it’s not even worth the trouble that you have to go through with the lender.Agents may or may not be a party on the contract, depending on which contract it is you are talking about.Jenn has no problem getting out of a contract if it represents enough trouble.Every agent would benefit by having a buyer contract signed or at least having the conversation.Jenn and Monica disagree and agree on this one in their views around the buying contract.According to Jenn, the buyer is allowed to change their mind during the process as long as they sign the contract.Send Jenn and Monica a message if you want to see some of their past buyer contracts.This week’s tiebreaker, Alan Jacobson, has spent over 30 years in the sales coaching world and serves the Palm Beach area in Florida for REMAX.Alan would never ask the buyer to make up the difference.Alan always signs a contract with the seller but usually does not sign one with the buyers.Camelot Management Services, Alan’s company, provides coaching and sales training to professionals from a variety of industries.Almost everyone is in some sort of sales, regardless of their position, so sales training would behoove all professionals.In his coaching services, Alan focuses on communication by drawing from his acting experience.3 Key Points:By discussing the possibility of payment with the buyers in the buyer contract upfront, Jenn takes out the possibility of surprise.In certain situations, time is more important than money. Agents need to ask themselves if a week of debate is worth a couple of hundred bucks.If you are not going to make the buyer sign a contract, the least you can do is have a conversation about what could happen.Resources Mentioned:Jenn Murtland (website, LinkedIn, Facebook)Call Jenn at (513) 400-1691 to discuss transitioning to eXp RealtyMonica Weakley (website, LinkedIn, Facebook)Realtor Fight Club Podcast Facebook page Alan Jacobson LinkedIn, Facebook, website, Camelot Management Services

We are very pleased to bring back bestselling author Alan Jacobson, as he talks his latest book "Red Death," the eighth book in the Karen Vail series. My debut novel, False Accusations, was a product of what I'd learned in that blood spatter class. It was a national bestseller and was ultimately published in several foreign countries. My follow-up novel, The Hunted, likewise a bestseller and published in several foreign countries, met with rave reviews from critics, booksellers, and readers. It introduced the characters of FBI Director Douglas Knox and covert government operative Hector DeSantos, who would return in a future novel "Red Death": In Hawaii, FBI agent Karen Vail pursues a killer without a profile, in this thriller by the USA Today–bestselling author of The Darkness of Evil. When Det. Adam Russell of the Honolulu PD encounters the body of a woman in her sixties—the second in recent days to inexplicably die of what seem like natural causes—he reaches out to Karen Vail, the renowned FBI profiler, who hops on the next plane. But even for someone as fluent in the language of murder as Vail, this case is hard to read. How were these women asphyxiated with no signs of trauma? How can she gather clues or collect evidence when the killer seems to strike during the briefest casual encounters? Is this the behavior of a male or a female perpetrator? And perhaps most terrifying of all, if the deaths appear so natural at first glance, how many victims have already been overlooked? Now, as something cold and dark lurks under the sunny warmth of this island paradise, Vail must stop a serial killer as elusive as the breeze . . .

"the Darkness of Evil" (A Karen Vail novel) by Alan Jacobson: The latest jaw-dropping thriller from USA Today bestselling author Alan Jacobson, featuring esteemed FBI profiler Karen Vail, on the hunt for an escaped serial killer… Jasmine Marcks was a teenager when she discovered her father was a killer. First there was the strip of bloody duct tape, then the bloodstain on his shirt, and finally the long nights away from home that always coincided with another gruesome murder. Marcks killed fourteen people before he was finally put in chains. But as renowned FBI profiler Karen Vail soon learns, Marcks's reign of terror is not over. After writing a book about growing up the daughter of a serial killer, a letter arrives at Jasmine's house—a single blank sheet of paper mailed from the maximum security prison Marcks now calls home. Hidden on the page is a secret message, a threat from a father who wants vengeance against the daughter who turned him in to the police. When Marcks breaks out of prison, Agent Vail must call on a legendary retired profiler to help find Marcks—and keep Jasmine alive. After seven years working with two senior profilers at the FBI's legendary Behavioral Analysis Unit, Alan Jacobson created Karen Vail—one of crime fiction's most compelling characters, according to James Patterson and Michael Connelly. Vail has tangled with the worst serial killers America has to offer. But they were nothing compared to Roscoe Lee Marcks.
