Are you doing your best??

The marketing that I see other "Real Estate Professionals" do is amazing. How many times have you pulled a flyer out of a box, only to find the MLS listing in the box,.. or one photo,.. typically bad,.. included in the MLS.

Our system at the Pikes Peak Multiple Listing Service even allows all the disclosures to be placed in the listings that are needed to go with an offer,.. yet many agents never post them.

This is what I call Lazy Agents,.. We are paid well for the services that we provide,.. and if we are not,.. it is due to our own lack of negotiation ability or because we are riddled with low self esteem of our worth. It seems to me that our Sellers who pay these fees,.. deserve to have professional representation of their homes.

We include Virtual Tours on every property, not just a select few, 2 sided, 4-color flyers at the house, Showcased Realtor.com Listings, Broadcasting to every major Real Estate Portal we can get our hands on, and every listing is filled with as many photo's, disclosures and descriptions as we can muster.

I think that often,.. we see the home as a transaction,.. as business,.. but we forget that to our Seller's,.. it's not a business transaction,.. It's personal. If we expect to be in business next year,.. it would be wise for all of us to take it personally as well.
