Meaning the broker/agent should tightly define their ideal client and discard or refer off the rest.The buyer should define what they want the broker/agent to do and give that upfront so that the broker/agent accepts the terms going in.The problem becomes when both the broker/agent and the buyer both think they can mold the other person into who they want them to be.These days on commercial I rarely touch anything under 2 million in price.
