Where the Hot, Hip and Happenin' Hang-The KW Weekly Scoop

12-01-09
Joelle Senter
Finishing off November and now on to the last month of 2009, wow! It can certainly be said this has been a year of interesting challenges.

Despite the weathered appearance of some of our agents, it has definitely been a year of growth and opportunities. The agents who have dug in and suffered through the difficulties of a strained real estate market/economy and have consistently provided excellent service are now beginning to reap the rewards. Their businesses are growing and their attitudes are changing to that of "we will continue to survive". The level of professionalism and local real estate knowledge needed to succeed has increased and that, my friends, is a good thing. It just may be exactly what the doctor ordered.

So, where are the survivors and thrivers of 2009 hanging? Why Keller Williams, of course. See this week's calendar of events offered at the St. Charles Keller Williams Realty office below, or for all offices, feel free to visit www.KW.com.

Octoberfest Is Over, Now It's Time To Get Serious

11-03-09
Joelle Senter
We ended last month with a children's Trick or Treat party, and for the adults, a Chili Cookoff Octoberfest Celebration. Both will go down in the books as events to remember. We are now entering the typically seasonally challenging month of November in the midwest with a plentiful load of transactions in the hopper, for which we are extremely grateful. I honestly don't believe it is just the First-Time Homebuyer Credit in full force as the investors seem to be on the prowl and making things happen too.

View our weekly updated workshop and events calendar, The KW Weekly Scoop, below to find out what "Real Estate's Hot, Hip & Happenin" are doing this week to keep those listings and sales at numbers outperforming last year! real estate training,real estate career,keller williams

Can't believe another week has completely flown by and the transactions continue to pour in (even if at a much lower price tag) despite the feared 4th quarter flop in our typically seasonal marketplace. Our associates remain confident that with their continued activity, proper mindset and determination to focus on only the most important objectives, our office as a whole will post remarkable 2009 numbers (especially given the challenges of this year) and head into 2010 with fire in our bellies. See how the fine associates of KW in the Chicago Western Suburbs are meeting their lofty goals and keeping up the positive energy, see The KW Weekly Scoop below. keller williams real estate training,real estate events,real estate newsletter,weekly scoop'

Spreading Good Cheer For A Cause

10-14-09
Joelle Senter

Given the economic challenges and market downturn, many charity organizations are experiencing record declines in donations this year which has resulted in their more frequent pleas for assistance.

Knowing this, several of our agents expressed interest in supporting our near and dear charities during the upcoming holiday season through some kind of fundraiser without crippling the pocketbooks of it's participants and donators. After much thought and extensive research, especially on the part of agent associate, Dr. Ted Heinemann, our Keller Williams Realty office has created "Dr. T's Holiday Tree Charity Fundraiser," named by the other committee members despite his request to remain anonymous. Humble Dr. Ted definitely deserves the credit.

Why real Fraser Fir holiday trees? What better why to spread good cheer and provide a product at a very competitive price with the proceeds going to charity at the same time. We will be giving 60% of the proceeds to The American Heart Association, 20% to KWCares and 20% to the winning team's charity: Diabetes, American Heart Assoc, Salvation Army, Northern IL Food Bank & The Red Cross. We have divided our entire office into 5 teams. Each team will be challenged to get the most donations resulting in their team's charity to become the recipient of the 20% as mentioned above.

Additionally, we are looking forward to the pick-up of trees, wreaths & roping by the donators/participants, as we are planning to wear "Santa" hats, offer hot chocolate and provide local restaurant and businesses' coupons, as an added bonus.

Our goal? Generate as much money as we can for our charities while also having fun and providing our purchasers with a quality and economical tree(s) and/or greenery. We plan on extending our volunteer services by providing a tree or wreath to our local families in need as determined by our RED Day experience.

If you are interested in getting involved, please call the Holiday Tree Hotline 2009 at 630.513.3906 or email holidaytree2009@gmail.com.

Happy Holidays!
