VIVID / Real Estate Investors / Free practice
One person is ready. Two people must decide.
Find what is still unresolved, respond to the owner’s concerns and prepare a useful next conversation with both decision-makers.
Two or three decisions. No account needed. Leave with a conversation card you can edit and keep.
“I need to talk with my wife before deciding.”
Fictional teaching example. People, dialogue and product details are invented for practice.
Your role: You are an investor discussing a possible purchase with a property owner.
What you know going in
- No price or move date has been agreed.
- The investor may discuss possible timing, but no flexible date, backup housing or contract term is promised by this scenario.

A worked conversation
Owner
I need to talk with my wife before deciding.
Investor
How are you feeling about the move yourself?
Owner
I want it settled, but I don’t want us rushing into nowhere to live. She’s handling the apartment.
Investor
What would both of you need to know before a date would make sense?
Absent-Party Protocol: discover the shared decision and the missing information, rather than treating authority as a fifth objection category.
Owner
Whether the apartment is confirmed, and a backup if it isn’t.
Investor
Then an accurate next step is to review those together. Is price also still part of what you’re comparing?
Owner
Yes. The move matters, but we haven’t agreed on price.
Investor
So the open comparison is price, a confirmed next place, a backup and a workable date. What have I missed?
Recap preserves all criteria, including unresolved financial ones. It does not turn context into a concession.
Owner
That’s right. We can both talk tomorrow after she checks the apartment.
Investor
Let’s use that conversation to hear both of your priorities and see which options are actually workable.
Proxy mode supports an informed joint conversation. There is no invented agreement or guaranteed offer term.
A fresh situation
Try the idea somewhere new
A different owner says, “My brother and I inherited the house. I’m ready to sell, but he handles the repair estimates.” You have not spoken to the brother or seen the estimates.
What should you prepare next?
Task-specific feedback; no legal conclusion, negotiation result or universal sales proficiency claim.
Make it yours
Practise the words before the call
Say your next question aloud once. Listen for whether it invites the buyer to correct you. Then compare it with the worked example.
