REAL ESTATE IT’S MORE THAN JUST A JOB


MOVING


The word leads to excitement, stress, nervousness… one thing we all know is that…

a move is a huge change and there is always a story behind it.

These two truths are the top two reasons I love my job and just why being a realtor is so much more than a job.


THE STORIES


I love the stories: The people I meet while doing my job are each a story I never would have known and a connection I never would have made without real estate.

 Clients turn to friends and other people’s stories become scripts that I participate in.

I am honored with every transaction.

Honored by the fact that my clients let me into their stories and their dreams.


STRESS


Do I love stress? No.

I love that I can help lessen my clients stress:

Ah the stress of moving, I know it well. Raising my family as an air force wife moving was one thing we could count on.  

From experience I can tell you the stress doesn’t

disappear no matter how often you move! 

The opportunity to ease the stress is a huge component of real estate. Real Estate isn’t just about finding my client a house it’s about helping people transition through the home buying process. By relieving any stress I can during the process, I can leave my clients with enough energy for the rest of the moving process.


There’s always something new….


There is never a day that goes by as a realtor that I don’t learn something new. Whether from a client, a fellow realtor, a mortgage broker, an inspector, an appraiser, the latest tech tool email from Windermere, the office meeting or one of the many other amazing people and resources I come in contact with every day I am ALWAYS learning!

 It is a necessity to stay abreast of the market trends, learn the latest marketing tools for my listings, learn about new opportunities for first time home buyers,  or first time home sellers, investors, retirees or one of the many other specialty buyers and sellers that make up our market.

BEING A REALTOR IS NOT 9 TO 5

 Sometimes it can be 7 days a week.

Sometimes deals fall through.

SOMETIMES DREAMS ARE ACHIEVED.

Being a realtor is a part of me every moment, every day, as are the stories I have learned and the people that I have met along the way.  As much as I become part of my clients stories they become part of mine.


and so…

Good days and bad

I LOVE BEING A REALTOR!
