🏃♂️💸 Story Post: "Why Chasing a Deal Almost Burned Me"
Let me tell you about the time I wasted 3 weeks chasing a deal that never closed. It started with a seller who seemed motivated. He said all the right things… ✅ “Yeah, I’m ready to sell.” ✅ “Just send the contract.” ✅ “Let me talk to my wife and I’ll get back to you.” ✅ “Just give me a few more days…” So I waited… …and followed up… …and waited some more. I was checking my email like a crazy person, thinking this deal was going to be the one. But here’s the truth: 👉 If you have to chase a seller, they’re not motivated. 👉 If they keep stalling, they’re not ready. 👉 If you’re always the one following up… you’re not negotiating — you’re begging. That deal? Never signed. Wasted time. Zero dollars. And while I was chasing it, I missed another lead that was ready. 🧠 Lesson: Motivated sellers don’t need to be convinced — they need to be helped. Now I use this mindset: “If I have to chase you, I’m not the buyer for you.” Focus on momentum. Focus on motivation. Let go of dead weight. Trust me — the money is in the easy yes, not the never-ending maybe. 💯
