Your real estate questions answered…
Yo! Broker,
I’ve heard that some real estate agencies have a manual for their agents on how to handle celebrity clients. Is that true?

Dear Marcy,
That sounds like bullshit to me. The truth that most L.A agents will sell a home to a celebrity or two or three (or more) during their career. And most agents do develop certain cautionary likes and dislikes
Me, I like the regular guy who shows up at my open house, leaves and then I find out his last song has been streamed a gazillion times. That guy is probably in charge of his life.
But when you get the call from the manager or screamer attorney with “few” pre-conditions for showing– you know the coming transaction is likely to be a BPA (big pain in the ass)
We do like business managers. They rarely nickel and dime you, or try to get you to cut your commission. They just want a fair deal for their client.
We’re not too crazy about celebrity girlfriends – usually because they have a real estate license — which they pray they’ll never ever have to use again.
Just be real, we tell our agents. No manual needed.
