Last night I went to a holiday party at the Embarcadero Resort in Newport, Oregon on the bayfront. It had a fabulous view of the marina and many of the boats were adorned with Christmas lights, making for a festive setting.
By the end of the evening, I had met a dozen new faces and handed out a few business cards. The topic of conversation at many of the tables was real estate, and because I had already introduced myself as an agent to a couple of strangers early in the evening, I was introduced by those folks to others who were also talking about real estate and wanted to chat once they realized I am a working Broker in the area.
Just by chance, in another part of the restaurant, a few other Newport agents were having dinner. I stopped and said hello as I left and was able to discuss a possible transaction with one of them who had an interested buyer for one of my listings.
What began as a simple night out for good food and conversation turned out to be unexpectedly business related...which proves that you CAN mix business with pleasure!
Whether buying or selling, you need a real estate professional who is going to go out there and be a part of the community. Call me if you need help buying or selling in the Lincoln County area!
