Overcoming Objections

In this episode of "The Business of Real Estate" podcast, hosts Eric Johnson and Lynn Hoffmann dive into the topic of overcoming objections in the real estate industry.

They emphasize that objections should be seen as opportunities rather than roadblocks. Lynn introduces the "LIMBS" approach (Listen, Isolate, Mirror, Solve) for handling objections effectively, while Eric highlights the importance of isolating the objection to avoid a barrage of concerns from clients.

They discuss various strategies, including the importance of preparation, practicing responses, and understanding the underlying reasons behind client objections. The episode also touches on the value of empathy, maintaining a positive mindset, and the significance of clearly communicating the value proposition to clients. Both hosts agree that handling objections with confidence and skill is crucial to success in real estate.
