More quotes by Barbara Corcoran
Good salesmanship is nothing more than maximizing the positive and minimizing the negative.
Barbara Corcoran
My best successes came on the heels of failures.
Barbara Corcoran
My husband had a very strong identity and was successful in his life. Thank God for that. There's no way I can control him. I wouldn't stay married to him if I felt I could. I can readily take my business personality into the home. But he forces me to be a partner rather than the boss.
Barbara Corcoran
The most influential factor in selling a home is always price. Don't build 'wiggle room' into the asking price. There's a price war out there and you have to win it from the get-go.
Barbara Corcoran
Refinancing doesn't reduce your debt, it just restructures it, so be clear about what you want to achieve with a refi.
Barbara Corcoran
People want to do business with someone they like. If people like you, they're going to want to do business with you. And if they don't you're going to have an almost insurmountable obstacle to overcome.
Barbara Corcoran
You may not like the idea of putting money into a home when you're moving out. But it's demanded by the market. You need to show it off. You don't have to rip out the kitchen and bathroom. But maybe replace the tiles or the countertops. Get professional advice.
Barbara Corcoran
I've seen innovation come from something as simple as a resourceful multibillionaire who wanted to make even more money.
Barbara Corcoran
If you've got the money, you need people to make money with your money. And if you have the talent, you can always merchandise your talent to someone who's got the money and make money. There's two pieces to it: talent and money.
Barbara Corcoran
Buyers decide in the first eight seconds of seeing a home if they're interested in buying it. Get out of your car, walk in their shoes and see what they see within the first eight seconds.
Barbara Corcoran
I've never had a really creative idea sitting at my desk. All the big ideas that made a difference happened when I was playing outside.
Barbara Corcoran
Don't teach talent that isn't there.
Barbara Corcoran
Sex appeal is in the workplace every day of the week. I'm not saying that's the only calling card, but it's a whole crayon box.
Barbara Corcoran
The joy is in the getting there. The beginning years of starting your business, the camaraderie when you're in the pit together, are the best years of your life. So rather than being so focused on when you get big and powerful, if you can just get the juice out of that... don't miss it.
Barbara Corcoran
Don't you dare underestimate the power of your own instinct.
Barbara Corcoran
The difference between the real winners is how long they take to feel sorry for themselves. My winners feel it... but they come back up and say 'hit me again.'
Barbara Corcoran
If a house is priced appropriately, make a bid 10 percent below that amount.
Barbara Corcoran
So many people are good at starts and not so good at finishing.
Barbara Corcoran
When you have chemistry with a potential hire, they will most likely become a great employee.
Barbara Corcoran
Everybody thinks that they're going to time the market, they're going to sharpshoot the market, and buy right at the bottom. The truth of the matter is that nobody is good at it.
