The real estate market has changed, but buyer psychology hasn’t.
In this special Throwback Episode, Glen Whitten revisits one of the most popular episodes of Talking Realty because its lessons are even more important in today’s market. During the COVID housing boom, bidding wars happened almost automatically. Today, sellers often have to create the conditions that make multiple offers possible.
In this episode you’ll learn:
- Why “Nothing Motivates a Buyer Like Another Buyer” (Truth #11)
- How to create a Buyer Feeding Frenzy (BFF) that starts a bidding war
- How open houses, timing, and launch strategy work together
- The psychology behind urgency and buyer competition
- Why desperate sellers leave money on the table
- Practical launch strategies you can use whether you’re selling yourself or working with an agent
Since this episode originally aired, we’ve expanded these concepts into our official Buyer Feeding Frenzy Playbook—now available FREE inside our Ultimate Home Selling Toolkit.
We can walk your through the Buyer Feeding Frenzy playbook and help you get your dream offer when you book a free pre-selling strategy call.
