🔥 15 Types of Real Estate Clients You’ll Definitely Meet! 🔥

If you’re a real estate agent—whether you’re selling or renting properties—you’ve probably encountered all kinds of clients. Every month brings in a wild mix of personalities.
But if you look closely, you can actually group most of them into these 15 types:

.

1. The Window Shopper 🧐

✅ Views every house in every project... still lives with mom
✅ Wants to see 10 homes "just to compare"... not planning to buy yet
✅ “Just looking for now, waiting for my inheritance to come through.”

.

2. The Complainer (But Still Wants It) 🤨

✅ “How can this house even sell?” (but tours for an hour)
✅ “This price? Are you serious? Can I get 50% off?”
✅ “The view sucks... but I like it.”

.

3. The Proxy Viewer 🤷‍♂️

✅ “I’m viewing it for my brother. He’s driving here now.” (Spoiler: he never comes)
✅ “I’ll have to discuss with my family first.” (Family = partner who always says “not yet”)
✅ “My mom’s still abroad. She’ll decide when she’s back.”

.

4. The Deal Hunter 💰

✅ “What promotions do you have?”
✅ “Can I get free down payment? Free aircon? Free furniture? Free water & electricity? No common fee for 10 years?”
✅ “If I book today, what do I get? iPhone, maybe?”

.

5. The Inquisitor 📝

✅ “Are the walls soundproof?”
✅ “How loud is the dog across the street?”
✅ “What does the neighbor do for a living?”
✅ “Does this area flood? How deep? Like... can a marathon runner wade through it?”

.

6. The “Not Ready, Just Looking” Type 😎

✅ “I’m interested, just need time to build myself up.”
✅ “Not ready yet... but if I win the lottery, I’m buying for sure!”
✅ “Just exploring... maybe for the future.”

.

7. The “No Reading, Please Explain” Client 📜

✅ “What does this contract say? I got dizzy reading it. Can you just tell me?”
✅ “What are the fees?” (You explain 3 times, still asks again)
✅ “When can I refinance?... Wait, what’s refinance again?”

.

8. The DIY Inspector 🔎

✅ “What brand is the tile? What glue? What angle was it laid at?”
✅ “Why place the septic tank in front? Should’ve gone behind.”
✅ “If we install the aircon here, will it make the light flicker?”

.

9. The Feng Shui Follower 🔮

✅ “My fortune teller said the house must face north.”
✅ “Where does the bathroom face? Is the master bedroom in the dragon zone?”
✅ “Is the house number okay? Does it include 0, 3, 7, or 8?”

.

10. The Romantic ❤️

✅ “I need a house that just clicks with me.”
✅ “It has to feel right. Like... it just speaks to me.”
✅ “Give me some time—this is the biggest decision of my life.”

.

11. The “Loved It! I’ll Call You!” Then Disappears 🏃‍♂️💨

✅ Super excited during the tour, full of emotion
✅ “THIS is the house I’ve been searching for!”
✅ “Let me think about it... I’ll get back to you.” Never does.

.

12. The Ghost Reader 👀

✅ You send them the latest promo... read, no reply
✅ You ask if they’re still interested... read, silence
✅ “What day works for another viewing?” (Read at 10:00 AM... reply in 3 years)

.

13. The Social Media Star 📱✨

✅ Doesn’t pick up your calls (after 3 tries)
✅ Meanwhile on Facebook: “📍 Check-in: Cozy Café”
✅ Story every 5 mins: “Happy Sunday!” 🌞
✅ Call again → call declined → new story: “Turning off my phone to avoid stress 😌”

.

14. The Vanishing Depositor 💸💀

✅ Says they’ll transfer the booking fee... asks for account number
✅ Chat turns into a ghost town
✅ After 3 days: “Have you transferred?”
“Oh! I forgot! I’ll send it now!”
...Never does.
1 month later → you find out they bought somewhere else.

.

15. The Scammer 🕵️‍♂️💸

✅ “Looking for a house for my brother. Please add his Line: mijjy888”
✅ Doesn’t ask about the house—wants to reserve right away... but asks you to exchange foreign currency first
✅ “The buyer just arrived in Thailand but is stuck at immigration. Can you help bail them out?”
✅ “Ready to book! But can you cover their travel costs first?”
