Convincing the Elderly Horder

[Chris Yeakel]

Hi guys,

Chris Yeakel here.

I’m looking for the right talk track.

I found a prime flip property down the road from my house, tucked back on 2.3 sub-dividable acres. The house and large detachable garage are in rough shape, the landscaping is grossly overgrown, and the lady is a an elderly horder, with potential financial problems, who is stuck in her ways.

My neighbor/realtor briefly talked to her and was turned away as far as her wanting to sell.

I’m wondering what is a good talk track/ psychological strategy, positioned to help this person out?

I’m sure she’d rather live somewhere easier to maintain, I’d like the financial gain without pure greed, and in the end, the state wouldn’t get her property when she dies (no kids).

Thoughts?
