Have you ever been introduced to PUA by a real estate agent? Will you believe the advice of the real estate agent?

The essence of PUA is to try to achieve its own goals through psychological manipulation. This way does not respect customers, and may also make customers make wrong decisions when buying a house. The following are some things I heard or experienced in the real estate agent PUA:

1. House change: Some real estate agents will let customers change their needs in various ways, such as guiding customers to see some expensive houses or changing places. If the customer has no firm demand, it is easy to be influenced by this method.

2. Quick signing: Some real estate agents will try their best to get customers to sign as soon as possible. They will say that this is a good house, and if you don't sign it soon, others will take it away. In this case, the customer may feel pressure, rather than rationally considering whether it is really necessary to spend so much money to buy this house.

3. Put customers in a weak position: Some real estate agents will make customers feel that they are in a weak position in various ways, so as to achieve the purpose of psychological manipulation. For example, they may say that other customers have taken a fancy to this house, or others are more willing to buy this house at a higher price, thus giving customers a sense of urgency.

In short, I suggest that customers should be rational when buying a house and not be influenced by the real estate agent PUA. Customers should be clear about their own needs, be patient enough, and don't be angered or overwhelmed by the words of real estate agents. If customers feel manipulated, they can choose to give up the house or choose another more honest real estate agent. From some angles, I don't believe the proposal of the housing agency. The main reasons are as follows:

1. benefit-driven: the income of real estate agents is usually based on the percentage of the sales price or rent of the house. They may recommend inappropriate or untrue properties to customers for their own benefit.

2. Lack of professional knowledge: Although many real estate agents have certain real estate experience, not all of them have in-depth professional knowledge. They may not have enough skills to evaluate the actual value of the house or determine whether there are potential problems.

3. Information asymmetry: Housing agents usually know more about the real estate market in this area than buyers or tenants. So they may use information asymmetry to promote high-priced or low-quality houses.

4. Unreliable reputation: There are some unreliable companies and individuals in the real estate agency industry who may cheat or work in an immoral way. These untrustworthy intermediaries will damage the reputation of the whole industry.

Considering these factors, I have reservations about the suggestion of the housing agency. When buying or renting a house, it is best to obtain information from multiple channels to ensure that the decision is based on comprehensive information and your own judgment.
