I have called my clients from the garage so that they could not hear my kids in the back ground. I have also been known to lurk in closets,corners,parked cars, and by the garbage cans outside. Do not hide in bathrooms-they echo. Where is the craziest place you have gone to be professional on the phone?
I showed a house today that I needed an appointment to show. I called ahead and was told that it was ready to go by the Agent.
When we arrived at the house it was nuked. I think the worst part was the underwear, and the clothes on the floor in most of the rooms.
I think my clients may have been interested, but that was hard to visually get past.
Ever wanted a redo?
I love my work. If work is even the right word. I could work form the time I get up to the time I go to bed, and I have. Where do you draw the line? When are you just putting in more time, and not seeing the benefits?
I feel that there is no lost time. What ever you do, do it with all you have and you will always receive something in return. Do you agree? Do you think agents should work a set amount of hours? When do we clock out? Do you network every where- even on vacation? How much is to much? If you love your job isn't it all just a day in the life? Let me know what you think!
Do you advise your clients to counter on low offers, or just not respond? I have wrote a few lately and the potential buyers were expecting a counter offer. The seller did not even respond. the Buyers were surprised. Do you think that the Sellers may have missed the boat? Do you think that if they countered, and were willing to accept a lower offer, just not that low ,we could have had a sale?Let me know what you think-Dinah
Do you market on the Internet? Do you find that this works better than in print?
I love the Internet. With the cost of gas these days it is the only way. I love it when agents put a lot of info out that my client can see from the comfort of their home or office. I like the ease of e-mailing at any time. I never have to worry about interrupting a important dinner, or event like a telemarketer. My clients respond at their convenience. I can also get additional pictures, and information to them via the Internet and they do not have to leave their home, even to make an offer. How cool is that! I think the Internet is the only way to go,-Do You?

Selling real estate is something I truly enjoy. Everyday brings new and exciting opportunities! I have been blessed to work with a company that is dedicated to my success and education. I have had many transactions- each of them different, and each of them rewarding. I have been able to put my experiences to work for my future clients in ways that would not be possible without having gone through them firsthand.

This allows us to knit together a transaction seamlessly. I believe our success is due to determination, education and above all respect, and love for the field of Real Estate.
Being a Mason County Realtor is very much an advantage to my clients. I am on the Quality of Life Committee which is very active in all of the local issues that effect my clients. I enjoy being up to date on what is going on in the county, and I feel that this knowledge is vital in representing the needs of my clients, and keeping them well informed of current issues.
I am also very active in our community, and the local schools. I feel that the only way to understand my clients needs is to be a an active part of my community, and share my experiences with them, and have the connections to assist them in any circumstance. Should a need arise I want them to know that I am always available with the resources they need.
