We all have a pretty good GIG...

Well, the beginning of this year has proven to be a VERY busy one. From Open Houses all the way to the settlement table, I am seeing a mass improvement in Buyer activity. I have more buyers now than I know what to do with and they are ALL motivated.

It's odd because everywhere you turn today in our industry there seems to be negativity everywhere. I am here to say "STOP!" Sitting back and chewing the fat in Real Estate is a thing of the past.

My girlfriend was walking her dog just the other day and she bumped into her neighborhood Realtor. Now, you would think as a NEIGHBORHOOD realtor she would have a few words of encouragement for her past and current clients but that could not be further from the truth. It seems as though every time somebody passes this Realtor by and strikes up conversation she is expressing to them she doesn't know where to go or what to do. I don't know about you but if my Realtor had no faith in my community I'm afraid I would be looking for another Realtor. That's where we come in, the Realtors on the front lines taking grenades to accomplish a goal. Now I am not trying to point the finger, I understand we all have our days in the mud but this being most Realtors way of thinking is NOT helping anybody.

I have been teetering with the idea of beginning to market to this neighborhood just on the simple fact that people want some positive encouragement and it NEEDS to start somewhere. We play a HUGE role in our client's life, "WE HELP THEM FIND A HOME". A home to raise their children, a home to create memories, a home that shows themselves just how hard they've worked, a home to grow old in. We SELL the GREATEST thing there is to sell in this world if you ask me, WE SELL OUR CLIENTS A FUTURE. Enough with the negativity take a step back and open your eyes. We all have a pretty good GIG...
