Shut The Front Door

Welcome back to Shut the Front Door! Today, I’m joined by Rob Crowe, a strategic advisor, to dive into a topic that affects every property buyer - emotions.

Buying property isn’t just about numbers and logic. It’s about life, relationships, and the future—which means emotions will come into play. Fear, excitement, stress—all of it can cloud your judgment. The key? A strategy that keeps you honest.

How to Manage Emotions in Property Buying

📌 Use a Checklist – Know your non-negotiables before emotions take over.
📌 Have Open Conversations – Talk to your partner or family about underlying concerns.
📌 Step Back & Review – When overwhelmed, refer back to your goals - not just how you feel in the moment.

Rob’s Take on Strategy & Emotions
In business, just like in property, emotions can drive bad decisions. That’s why Rob helps clients stick to their strategy, even when panic or excitement kicks in. His advice? Create a plan, but be flexible - because real life will throw curveballs.

A big mistake? Thinking a quick fix or impulse decision will solve everything - like buying a late-night TV fitness machine and expecting six-pack abs overnight.

Sound familiar?

Your Action Item:

Check out The One Thing by Gary Keller - it’s a great read on focusing on what really matters. This is Robs’ recommendation for one book.

And remember:

Emotion in property buying is normal - but a solid strategy keeps you on track.
