Having trouble solving a problem? As a real estate agent or broker, problem solving is as natural as breathing. Difficult clients, loan processors with attitudes, flakey inspectors, there’s always a glitch somewhere. But what do you do when the problem persists? According to Eric Ries’ Fast Company article entitled, To Get to the Root of a Hard Problem, Just Ask Why Five Times. As Eric describes it, by asking why at each stage of a process, it’s more likely you’ll find the cause of the problem and a real solution. It makes sense to me. But don’t take my word for it; check out the article, try Eric’s technique, and let me know what you think.
Of course if your problem is how to start, or advance your real estate career, no need to ask why – just do it. It’s fast and easy with the help of the Real Estate Centre. You can find everything you need to know on the site, or or call 310-410-9718 for more information.
