“No deal goes smoothly. If you spend any time in this world, you’ll realize that every deal has hair on it. You’re dealing with people and people have personalities and it’s a very emotional process.” — Sam Curcio [0:03:55]
“A broker’s job is not about finding the buyer. A broker’s job is about getting a deal across the finish line.” — Eric Straus [0:06:03]
“There’s no question that hiring a good broker is worth the investment to help with the process. It’s not an easy process, it’s an emotional process — and having someone who’s done it hundreds and hundreds of times obviously, is going to be beneficial.” — Eric Straus [0:06:40]
