Real Estate Insight | InTouch Podcast #29
Hosts: Mindi Landry, Sherry Powers, & Gary Giffin
In today’s fast-paced real estate world, communication and professionalism can make or break a deal. In our latest podcast episode, top-producing agents Mindi Landry and Sherry Powers shared strategies for working effectively with other agents—even when challenges arise.
Why Communication Matters
Mindi and Sherry emphasized that great agents are responsive across all channels—email, text, and phone. This approach builds rapport and keeps transactions on track.
Red Flags to Watch For
Not all agents meet this standard. Delayed responses, lack of knowledge about timelines, and general evasiveness are signs of inexperience or poor training. Spotting these early can prevent major issues later.
Set Expectations Early
A key takeaway? Be proactive. Mindi and Sherry recommend setting clear expectations and timelines from the start. When working with less experienced agents, they advocate for patience and gentle coaching to keep deals moving forward.
Leading with Empathy
Real estate is emotional. Life events can affect an agent’s performance, and Mindi shared how she balances empathy with strong advocacy for her clients. Grace and understanding go a long way in maintaining professionalism.
End on a High Note
No matter how rocky a transaction gets, ending it with professionalism leaves a lasting impression. Sherry stressed that encouragement and respect help build long-term relationships in this reputation-based industry.
Mindi and Sherry’s message is clear: communication is everything. Whether you’re collaborating with a seasoned pro or a struggling newcomer, staying connected can lead to smoother transactions—and a stronger career.
