How my office got smaller and larger at the same time

In the past month, 4 new people have come into our multi-state real estate brokerage company in both Pennsylvania and California.

Yet, my office space has actually shrunk!

With the installation of another printer/fax/scanner, we have less space for people in the office, yet, we have more people.

Why? We actually have it down pat that that agents are better being out having contact with real people (while they Tweet of FB!) and get deals.

So, if you are thinking about what you can do to modernize your real estate career, we are happy to teach you to get out of your chair, move far away from the water cooler, learn to engage real people and make your life happier along with giving you more spare time while you make more (and ethical) money, give me a buzz, email, tweet, FB post or personal visit!

Interesting that you have offices in California and Pennsylvania - not a whole lot in common.

I've never understood the real estate person who actually goes into an "office" everyday. How productive is that?

Hi Fred!
We have been considering going a little more "virtual" but I think we will end up being a hybrid. We have many agents who enjoy coming into the office and leaving the home territory for home "stuff". Others only come in when they need the office equipment. I think in time we will end up accomodating both styles.

Paula, there is a time period when you need both but eventually it should come to the paperless situation with technology making life easier for everyone!

I'd love to chat with you and compare ideas!
