Boston Condos for Sale and Apartments for Rent
Boston real estate teams remind me of large companies. There is often a lot of bureaucracy
I was shopping at a department store in a downtown crossing yesterday, I found an item that caught my eye that did not have a price on it. I asked the young man stocking the display for a price. He looked at the item and verified that it did not have a price on it and said “not my department”
I asked if he could get the price. He told me that it wasn’t his department.
Boston Condo Real Estate Teams
Sometimes I experience this as a Boston condo broker with real estate teams. If I ask one team member a question there is a good chance I will be sent to another team member for an answer. Sometimes, information is not shared across real estate teams.
If one member of a Boston real estate team can not make it to an appointment another team member will not fill in for them, that’s what happened to me today.
Large teams kind of remind me of large companies. There is often a lot of bureaucracy, little communication, and responsibility for customers or clients is diffused to the point where no one cares.
Boston real estate teams also tend to cause more work for other Boston condo agents. They have systems and procedures that make more work for the rest of us. These systems are needed for internal team communication.
There are some real estate teams that do a fantastic job.
Clients should not assume that agents who are part of a team will provide better service. Sometimes the opposite is true.
