It was interesting to find out recently that two of the agents I work with at REMAX were on a panel at a real estate workshop, along with other agents from different cities in Oregon. When asked why the two of them are actually SELLING in this market, they mentioned my name in front of all of their colleagues who were attending the workshop. They price homes agressively and I Stage professionally so those all-important RMLS photos ROCK!
I have since gotten at least 6 calls from other realtors at the same REMAX office, confirming my assumption that when a realtor recommends a Stager to another realtor, this type of referral gets me WAY more new business than ANY OTHER marketing tactic. Consequently, I have to say that my ongoing business is truly "ALL ABOUT THEM"!!
I always do my best to underpromise and over-deliver to these realtors. They know that I REALLY APPRECIATE their ongoing business, that I LOVE what I do, and that I WORK VERY HARD for them and their homesellers. I KNOW, LIKE and TRUST THEM, and the feeling is evidently mutual, given their ongoing business. I am honored to have achieved this relationship with THEM.
Here is a home that one of those realtors recently called me in for. I was there for 2 hours - we did some quick redesign work (the realtor had already prepped this client, who was very proactive). I was able to get in, do some quick tweaking, get the photos done and get out in one trip. The following weekend, this cute starter home got a full-price offer. I love when that happens and so do my realtor associates - ESPECIALLY in THIS MARKET!
...or maybe it was a child who closed the deal. Take a look at this cute girl's bedroom with chandelier! ;=)
