Agent Series 54: The Other Agent Is Your Real Client

What if one of the most important relationships in a real estate transaction isn't with your buyer or seller, but with the agent on the other side?

James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Cari McGee, team leader of the Cari McGee Team at RE/MAX Northwest in Washington, to unpack the systems and relationships behind more than 650 home sales and 270-plus five-star reviews.

Cari shares how she generates roughly 70% of her business from referrals, keeps former clients engaged through her Rockstar Rewards program, and uses consistent expectation-setting to protect both her clients and her own time. But her biggest piece of advice is surprisingly simple: treat the other agent like they're your client. Because when a transaction gets difficult, that relationship can make or break the deal.
