Simon Conway

As regular readers of my blog will know, I recently completed a seven year journey to citizenship of this great nation. Now this week has seen two further milestones!

My United States passport arrived in the mail yesterday, and today I went and voted for the first time in my new home. Yes that's me outside the polling place at lunchtime today after I had cast my vote to throw out the incumbents!

The importance of exercising your democratic rights have perhaps never been more important than they are today.

We have the incredible men and women of our military right now as I write this, trying to ensure those same rights to people who have been living under one of the most brutal dictatorships the world has ever known. The first time they were given the opportunity - and risking their own lives to do so - the Iraqi people came out in their millions and dipped their fingers in purple ink to show the world they had cast their votes.

Of course it is equally your right to not go and vote although personally I believe that means you give up your right to complain. Before you don't go, I urge you to think of the sacrifice so many have made to enable you to make that choice.

Why am I so successful? I genuinely believe that exceptional customer service is an absolute right for people who are entrusting what is often the biggest financial outlay they will ever make - to me. I am always available to my customers, rarely turning off my cell phone before 11pm. Most of my customers have my home number as well and most become my friends. Every year at Christmas we have a gathering of my friends in my home. It is funny as I look around the room to realize just how many of them started out as customers.

That was taken from my Active Rain profile and I reproduce it here because it would seem that my clients and fellow professionals have recognized that these are not mere words.

I am proud to announce that I am the recipient of the Orlando Homebuyer Five Star "Best in Client Satisfaction" Real Estate Agent for 2008. This is not an award I was nominated for; not something I paid to be a part of and in fact not anything I even knew about until I received the "congratulations" phone call. What pleases me the most about this award is the following - taken from my notification.

"Orlando Homebuyer contracted an independent market research company, Crescendo Business Services, to administer a rigorous "Best in Client Satisfaction" nomination process. More than 28,000 recent homebuyers and 250 mortgage lenders and title companies were asked to cast a ballot to identify exceptional real estate agents in the Orlando area."

If we are honest,then we will admit that there are many other agents out there in our own markets with the same knowledge we have and who could find the same homes and maybe even negotiate the same price. So you have to set yourself apart if you are to be successful. What I have always used as my "tool of separation" is exceptional customer service. I do it because I want my clients to be treated in the way I wish to be treated. I expect very high standards from those who work for me. From the waitress in my favorite eatery, to the person who works on my car, to the team that installed my Summer kitchen. I expect it and when I don't receive it, then they know about it. And so I always strive to deliver to my clients what I expect to receive from everyone else.

If you are looking for EXCEPTIONAL CUSTOMER SERVICE in your search for a home or your desire to sell your home, then please look no further. Recognized by both the public and other professionals in my industry, it would be my honor to look after your interests as you seek to buy or sell real estate in Orlando, Windermere, Dr Phillips and all of Central Florida. Call me today on 407 876 8200 and let's see how I can be of service to you.

It's time for some R&R and so here we are - including my dog Katie - at the Shores hotel in Daytona Beach. When I booked it, I truly couldn't believe I had managed to find a hotel of this standard which was pleased to welcome my dog!

But they do and it's wonderful

Today Katie saw the ocean for the first time and it really was like bringing your kid to Disney for the first time! She was so excited and ran into the water and started swimming before I was even aware of it.

Considering she had major surgery this year, I was really pleased to see how well she did. Now she is exhausted!!!

So - if you are looking for somewhere in Florida that is of the highest quality AND that will allow you to bring your dog, I can strongly recommend this place.

Daytona has a "no dogs on the beach" policy, but rightly they have provided a doggy beach to go along with this. Tomorrow we will be going back again for another hour or so and then we will hang out by the pool. The hotel has told us that Katie can go anywhere in the hotel except actually IN the pool. But she can hang out next to the pool. She can also sit in the restaurant while we eat.

They charge a $250 refundable deposit assuming she does no damage and then they charge $25 a night for her.

I'll post picture of Katie's seaside adventures when I get back on Sunday. Have a great weekend everyone!
