Hey…Do You Know Who You Are Dealing With?
September 2nd, 2008 Categories: Real Estate News
Recently a presentation was made by Erin Curtis entitled “Why Can’t We All Get Along? Generational Struggles in our Colleges”.
Erin was focused on the peoples that now attend colleges and addressed their generation and what each generation brings to the campus.
I saw this presentation somewhat differently. I looked at the presentation as a real estate broker and saw in it the various ages that a realtor works with.
I took from Erin’s presentation and added a few items that expands his college approach and transitioned it to the real estate world.
As one reads they themselves will certainly see items that have been excluded so it is not to be considered a complete picture of real estate buyers or sellers…..but simply is a start of who you are working with and what their bases of doing and acting as they do.
I found that there is some relationship between Generation Y and Traditionalist (as labeled above) even though there’s 50+ years or more between these generations.
I also noted that Boomers and Traditionalist were almost opposite. Traditionalist are the parents of Boomers and it appears that Mother Nature ever so cleverly made sure that there would be some significant differences in attitude and human relationships.
Enjoy the reading and add to and subtract from the chart as you see fit.
Your comments are welcomed.
