Stores are Already Selling Christmas Decorations?

It’s not even Halloween yet and I saw Christmas decorations in WalMart the other day. At the pace we’re going, I’m probably a little behind the curve on this one, but Happy Valentine’s day 2017, everybody!

7 Tips for Masterful Negotiation Part 2–Florida Real Estate School

7 Tips for Masterful Negotiation Part 2

Florida Real Estate School

Think confidence, machismo, and stamina are the keys to winning a negotiation? Then your bargaining skills need a reboot. Over the past decade, a growing field of literature on the subject has come to the conclusion that checking your ego at the boardroom door is a must. Compromise and kindness are the new rules of negotiation. How does this gentler approach work? We’ve compiled a short list of pointers to get you started.

 

  1. Ditch the Dog Metaphors.

Negotiating: It’s two pit bulls locked in a room and one is going to be forced to roll over. Ick. That mentality is not only outdated, but will get you nowhere. That’s because, frankly, baring teeth and barking the loudest doesn’t have the power it might seem to when bargaining. When deal making gets tense, no one ever wants to back down. In Roger Fisher and William Ury’s negotiating text, “Getting to Yes,” the experts suggest that instead of viewing your counterpart as the adversary, you focus instead on the merits of the case and search for ways to achieve reciprocity. The idea is to “attack” the underlying issue, rather than the other negotiator.

This is how you look when you try to act tough during negotiations.

 

  1. When All Seems Lost, Gain Something Else.

If a negotiation is going nowhere, and taking up too much of your time and energy, you may want to walk away from it. Before you do, entrepreneur Janine Popick recommends that you stop and think: What else can my company or I get out of this situation? Might someone else give the negotiations a try? Or perhaps you can use the bad situation as an opportunity to train someone at your company on how to deal with toxic clients.

  1. Remember: You’re Already a Pro at This.

However much you think you negotiate, you’re probably underestimating your experience. That’s what bargaining manual Getting to Yes posits. “Everyone negotiates something every day,” the author wrote. And in Bargaining for Advantage, author G. Richard Shell agrees: “All of us negotiate many times a day.” Yes, your co-workers, children, spouse, and even fellow passengers on the train, help you refine your skills day in and day out.

 

Utilize these 7 tips to reach your own level of negotiation mastery.

5 Tips: How to Pass the Florida Real Estate Exam

5 Tips: How to Pass the Florida Real Estate Exam

1. Take your time

You have three and a half hours to answer the questions, which means there is no need to rush.

Just take a deep breath and trust your preparation.

2. Read all the darn questions…2 times

It’s too easy to skip over key words in the question. Our brain has this nasty habit of filling in the blanks of sentences when we haven’t even seen every word.

Give yourself a chance of getting the questions right by reading them each 2 times.

3. Read all the darn answers…2 times

Before choosing an answer, even if you are 100% positive it’s right, read through all the choices.

It may be that you have prematurely selected a response that is correct, but there could be another answer that is more correct.

If you fail to read through all the answers there’s a chance you may mark the wrong one.

4. Longer is better

If you come to a question that has you completely stumped, usually the longest choice is the most likely to be correct.

This is not a hard rule of thumb, but rather an indicator to go off of when you don’t have any idea what the answer could be.

5. Treat each multiple choice question as 4 true-false questions

Each multiple choice question will have 4 answers, each of which you should regard as a true-false question.

This will help you ensure that you aren’t missing any details when responding to each question.

In order to learn the information necessary to pass the state exam, you need access to hundreds of sample questions, immediate feedback, and explanations covering the content you’ll see on test day.

That’s exactly what you’ll get with LarsonEd’s Real Estate Exam Tutor, available here for $69.

We also offer a Broker Exam Tutor, which you can purchase here for $89.
