A Century 21 agent many years ago at one of those Career day events / Local office meetings imparted this advice to me

  Take One Of These And See Me In The Morning.

I said what? She said Realtors are like these Big Ol Aspirin to their clients. They are invaluable. They basically keep addressing all the pain that can crop up during a buying or selling transaction. They relieve tension and can cool hot heads. They are comforting.

Think about it as it is so true. Huge Aspirin workers who serve you. They handle negotiations, set the stage for getting your property sold with the least hassle, have knowledge of the current contracts and paperwork to use, know many inspector, appraiser, Stager, loan, and handymen resources. With the For Sale By Owners being successful selling on their own approximately 13% of the time, eventually they find the BIG ASPIRIN that is a competent professional Realtor to assist with the pain.

Now maybe with chocolate as something that raises the endorphins and makes us feel good better than aspirin I will twist the story from the original that the lady told me about and say we Realtors are more like chocolate.

Chocolate is for lovers and if we are watching out for the best interest of our clients we are truly loving them.

Aspirin for alleviating the pain of the headache of a deal and chocolate for making everyone feel all warm inside when they have a successful sale or move into their dream home.

That's the ticket!!
