Pleasanton, CA

Pros and cons of a Home office

Marylou Edwards: Loan Officer in Pleasanton, CA

I've been working from home for the past 2 years and feel like I've really stagnated. I thought it was going to be so ideal to be home and take care of my family while I'm at it. But it turns out, it's so distracting and loney. the funny thing too is that it seems when family and friends know you work from home, they seem to think it's ok to talk on the phone for a long time without any regard for the time they are taking away from my money making hours.

I also have an excuse to watch my favorite noon time show "Wowowee" since I like to cook at lunch time for dinner. That way, I'm all done at noon and that's when I decide to hit the shower. Isn't that disgusting? That's why any appointments I make are usually in the afternoon or evening.

Then 3pm rolls around and of course the kids start rolling in and turn on the TV full blast. It's so distracting. I finally had a door put in to my Living room/Home office. That was expensive since I had to have one of those decorator ones that's made of glass and some design, really nice.

Anyway, after all these years at home, I decided I needed a change so I took the plunge. I interviewed with several different companies and I think I found a winner! I am happy that I met and befriended DebbieZetner of Diversified Mortgage Group at the local realtor meeting. She was doing a fund raiser for "Save Pleasanton schools" and I offered to help. I gave her my card but didn't hear from her for at least 2 months. When she called me to join them, I had no idea. When I met with the owner, Rick Lewis, I could tell this guy is a motivator. He goes through business plans, goal planning and all kinds of stuff with all his LO's. They have kick off meetings and have a very nice office to boot. He seems to have a very well run office. I know like 5 agents there already. I wish I knew about this company way back.

I have a feeling they are going to really help me build up my potential to even more than I thought I even had. I think it makes a huge difference where you work and who you work for. What do you think?
