Most of the lockboxes I see used are from bank reo properties, and the logic, at least in MY area, that I heard is that the listing agents either get these combination lockboxes directly from the lender or they use the combo boxes due to the fact that plumbers and repair people need to get in and the agent understandably cannot meet the service providers.  Only thing LOL, is the codes seem to be one of a couple. Most investors in my area know of a couple of them. Their own buyer agents give them the code.  I don\'t even want to THINK about the potential liability that scenario could cause.<br><br>In my area, for a long while, the same blue lockboxes Jay features were selling for $20. No kidding. When THAT sale was taking place I "snatched" a good amount of them, at least around 10 or more. Now they are around $100... They\'re durable, safer, and I get a record of who (or who\'s keypad is being used) and I can also control access hours with these things.. I do have a couple of combination boxes because there are a couple of "remote" areas that some of the agents just don\'t seem to use the electronic boxes or they don\'t use the keypads (real estate agent "hicks"), LOL..

The figures calculated are probably directionally correct overall. What makes things worse for the agents is that they\'re not doing 54% less work, or incurring 54% less out of pocket costs. Many pay for system access and certain RE related services out of pocket. With income reduced but expenses holding steady, the reduction in their net income is more pronounced. Many of these agents are also spending significant amounts of time and energy working on short sales. Few of these transactions end up closing and yielding commission $ as many banks are dragging their feet on dealing with problems. The only people who seem to have it worse are the spec builders. Many are being boiled alive as the problems they put off in 2008 by renting out unsold inventory are now snowballing into massive losses.</div>\

All my client has to say, for example, is "Wow, I love this home!" And bang, our negotiating position just got weaker. If the sellers agent wants feedback, they can call me.

Read through this blog and you\'ll see many that I share.  I can tell you one thing though, in my market, if it is in the LEAST bit inconvenient for a buyer to view a property, they will move on. They have 35,000 homes here to chose from. If we were to have to wait even 5 minutes for a listing agent to show up, my client would simply say "Next!". Buyers simply aren\'t going to even remotely jump through hoops to see a home. Sellers HAVE to make it easy for buyers to view the property.<br><br> "I\'d submit if someone wants to actually buy a home, they could care less who\'s there supporting the property showing."<br><br>And I would submit that a buyer doesn\'t care if the person representing the seller shows them a home, they are potentially making a critical mistake. <br><br>"Why not reduce the number of tire kickers by pre-qualifying potential buyers, reduce the number of home showings by actually gathering their needs and showing only those that fit 75% plus of those needs?"<br><br>We do exactly that (actually, we show homes that are closer to fitting 100% of the buyer\'s needs). Any buyer\'s agent worth a flip  would do that. Are there lousy buyer\'s agents out there? Of course. But I\'m not showing a home to anyone that isn\'t 1) serious about buying; and 2) qualified to buy. I have a lot better things to do than drag tire kickers around.<br><br>"Why not actually schedule appointments for home showings vs. this "I drove by your home just now and my buyers want to see it NOW" mentality?"<br><br>We do schedule appointments for home showings.  But things come up, schedules change, timelines need to be flexible. Occasionally as we\'re driving about, a buyer may say <br>what about that house?" And since we\'ve done our homework, we\'ll be able to say -- that house doesn\'t meet your criteria for x, y, and z.<br><br>"I\'d submit the "old days" of showing 15-20 properties a day is time wasted. It\'s a new world, time to communicate new processes, and to better utilize technology."<br><br>Maybe, maybe not. Depends on the buyer. We get a LOT of out of state (and out of country) buyers that have very limited time to look for a home. You can search all day long on the internet, but at some point, people that are totally unfamiliar with the Phoenix area need to see a lot of homes in a lot of different areas in order to make a decision of this magnitude.<br><br>"I\'d continue to submit -- sans empirical data to dismiss it, the current process is askew and needs modification."<br><br>I\'m not saying it\'s perfect, far from it. But the answer isn\'t simply to have listing agents present for showings.  I have data that buyers spend FAR less time looking at a home where the sellers are present. I don\'t have data that supports they would do the same with a listing agent present, because no listing agent will be present when I show a home.<br><br>Ultimately the answer may be better qualified buyer\'s agents. Or having something in place to remove the lousy ones. That would take a fundamental shift in the typical broker\'s mentality though -- which is something I\'ve been suggesting for quite some time.</div>\

On the other hand they talk the importance of  buyer negotiation being an issue.  I\'d submit that\'s a small piece of the puzzle.<br><br>Further -- I\'d assert that buying a home is an emotional transaction, to the detriment sometimes of rational thought.  Sound familiar?<br><br>While agents downplay (and downspeak) purchase emotions - buyers either "feel it" or they don\'t.  EMOTION.<br><br>So what if a potential buyer "loves it" and says they do?  That translates to NOTHING on paper.  How is communicating positive (or negative) responses compromising your fiduciary responsibility?  It isn\'t and it doesn\'t.<br><br>If a client finds a property they like and want to pursue it via a contract, it seems to me your "fiduciary responsibility" is to counsel them on key environmental, legal and other purchase aspects vs. communication exchange.<br><br>Your response  "...I don\'t have data that supports they would do the same with a listing agent present, because no listing agent will be present when I show a home." -- pretty much sums up the bias expected and bias given.<br><br>The process of buying and selling a home in Arizona (and I suspect many other places...) is based on how realtors perceive the process to be that best suits their means.<br><br>Perhaps one day the process will serve the people who buy and sell homes.

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-12978186" class="dsq-comment-message">"I\'d assert that buying a home is an emotional transaction, to the detriment sometimes of rational thought."<br><br>Absolutely true. Not good, but true and something we do our best (with mixed success) to counsel on. It is *very* difficult to separate emotion in a transaction like a home purchase. It <i>needs</i> to be a business decision, but human nature being what it is, it\'s virtually impossible for it to be purely business.<br><br>Perhaps my example of a buyer saying "I love this house" to the seller\'s agent wasn\'t the best example. It was the first one that popped into my head. But if the seller knows the buyer has already begun that emotional attachment to the home, then it does give the seller an advantage. They can counter lower knowing the buyer is in love. I simply feel it\'s it\'s important not to divulge <i>anything</i> that could even remotely compromise the buyer\'s position.<br><br>And I see absolutely nothing positive that having a seller\'s agent present at a showing brings to the buyer.<br><br>"Your response "...I don\'t have data that supports they would do the same with a listing agent present, because no listing agent will be present when I show a home." -- pretty much sums up the bias expected and bias given."<br><br>I don\'t understand how this is biased.  I keep sellers agents away from my buyers for their own good, not mine. <br><br>"no electronic device will EVER replace human representation...I hope that fact isn\'t lost in the exchange."<br><br>Again we are in complete agreement.<br><br>"The process of buying and selling a home in Arizona (and I suspect many other places...) is based on how realtors perceive the process to be that best suits their means."<br><br>Please don\'t generalize and lump all Realtors into one big category. I don\'t do what best suits my interests. I do what best serves my clients interests. Of course there are self-serving agents out there. But we\'re not all that way. I know exactly who pays my bills, and I respect them completely. I\'ve often said I am not a salesman. I\'m not here to sell anyone a home. I\'m here to make sure their best interests are represented -- whether I\'m working with a buyer or a seller. I\'ve built my brokerage on customer service, not self service.<br><br>The point of the article wasn\'t really about what is the best way to show a home. The point was, combination lock boxes stink, giving codes out over the phone is stupid, and electronic boxes are far superior and solve the problems combination boxes present.<br><br>But I sure appreciate the exchange, it\'s been good. And you\'ve given me a great idea for a future article. When it\'s posted (likely late this week), I hope you\'ll come back and continue the debate!</div>\
