Flaky Buyer

PSA for Buyers: Your reputation does follow you (especially in a small market like Grand County)

Thinking of making your fifth offer this month and canceling before the ink dries?

Or maybe you’re the one who submitted a 23-point inspection objection that included a request for the seller to replace the sky and change the weather patterns?

Hey—we’ve seen it. We remember it. And more importantly... so do other agents.

In a big city, you can vanish like Houdini. But here? Grand County real estate can be like a small-town rodeo. Same listing agents. Same broker networks.

And here's the kicker: if you get labeled as flaky, high maintenance, or commitment-phobic, the listing agent is ethically obligated to inform their seller of your greatest hits.

“Well, they backed out on three deals last quarter after asking for a new roof and a spiritual cleanse.”

Moral of the story: Be serious. Be reasonable. Be the buyer sellers hope for.

Because next time you write an offer (which may be on your DREAM HOME not just your monthly tire kick), your reputation may have already walked into the room before you do. Don’t be your own worst enemy.
