Discussing a homeowner’s long-term plans
A proposal conversation should reflect the customer’s stated plans without treating uncertain future events as facts.
A practical approach
Ask about the time horizon and changes they want the reviewer to consider. Keep definite plans separate from possibilities. Avoid making claims about resale value or future financial outcomes that the proposal does not support. Use the information to frame questions for the appropriate advisor or reviewer.
Put it into practice
- Capture the stated time horizon
- Separate possibilities from commitments
- Avoid unsupported future-value claims
