She must not have been very persuasive because he signed the deal that same day.

People from all political persuasions go on my tours so it’s not a Democratic or Republican or Libertarian thing.

The association was defunct and there was no way the association's documents would ever be updated to reflect this.ANOTHER thing to be aware of is this: There is case law from New Jersey (not controlling in your state, but can be used for persuasive purposes - so may actually be relevant) that basically says an HOA has limited resources, there might be times/occasions when the HOA doesn't have enough money to pay the bills, it's reasonable for the Board to make judgment calls on which bills get paid and which bills do not get paid, and the unit owners elect the Board to make these judgment calls so the unit owners only remedy (as long as the Board is not acting in a totally irrational and unacceptable manner - as far as the court is concerned) is to elect a new Board - unit owners can't sue Board over their decision on what bills to pay.THEREFORE, while the association documents may say what the Board is doing is not allowable - in practical terms, it very well may be allowable....

Also after speaking with another agent they recommended "a lot of people find it helpful if..." which creates trust and social proof in peoples minds, so they're more willing to go along with it.Thirdly, its a huge reason why people write scripts for cold calling etc, and Keller Williams was big on pointing out how they refined their scripts to where they were increasing conversions dramatically.All of this got me wondering, what are some persuasive words or phrases that you've learned to say or not to say that create trust, close more deals, or build better relationships with clients when you first meet?

The book I'm really liking right now that feels more relevant to real estate investing - especially how to be persuasive with potential partners or funders - is Pitch Anything by Oren Klaff.
