ROLE PLAY BUSINESS MEETING
Situation
A condo sales agent is meeting with a family of three. These are first-time buyers who are shopping for a condo. They are at the sales office located nextto the site of the future condo tower. Construction has not begun but a large billboard sign outside the sales office proclaims “over 80% sold - starting at $195,000”.

3) Wife
