https://youtu.be/TLJVWQsU-cQDoes your Realtor’s value really come down to how fast they answer the phone? In this episode of Talking Realty, Glen Whitten (founder of Ohio Property Group) breaks down why that common belief is not only wrong, but potentially harmful to home sellers.Glen shares a real story of an agent who criticized him for not answering his phone “fast enough” — and why that critique misses the point entirely. Professionalism isn’t about desperation. True results come from systems, strategy, and experience — not taking calls in the grocery store or mid-birthday party.He also explains why written communication beats random calls every time, how to spot “sign chasers” (agents who poach clients), and why you should run from Realtors who measure success by phone availability rather than proven results.What You’ll Learn in This Episode:Why professionalism and systems create better results than 24/7 availabilityWhy rapid phone answering ≠ Realtor excellenceHow written communication protects sellers and speeds up dealsThe truth about “real estate emergencies” (spoiler: there aren’t any)How to spot unethical “sign chasers” trying to poach listingsOh, and this week’s Flat Fee Win?
