I was running late this morning---the cell phone was sounding the piano ring-tone every few minutes and as I responded to calls my hair air dried (think frizz) and my oatmeal grew cold (think glue). The news was a mixture of good and bad: The promised offer is not coming. The short sale offer was accepted, and my business partner called in sick. The pre-approval is waiting in my in-box and there are multiple offers on the income property my clients submitted an offer on. Just your typical real estate day.
I almost skipped the broker tours today. There was an escrow to open, a file to complete and hefty stack of paperwork on my desk. However, I really enjoy that midday break from 11am to 1pm and today was simply too lovely to spend it entirely in front of my computer. I printed the open house list, locked the office and rushed out to preview new listings in Palos Verdes.
I entered Rolling Hills first to preview a couple of incredible estates. I have a client contemplating a move and I try to see all likely candidates when they are on broker open house tour. As I snaked along the winding curves and silently absorbed the sheer beauty of the Pacific Ocean and Los Angeles views from atop the Palos Verdes Peninsula I left the harried attitude behind. I even lingered at one of the estates and called a client to tell her this is a place she really must see.
As I drove on my way to the next house I thought how incredibly fortunate I am to work in an area as beautiful as the Palos Verdes Peninsula, have a job that allows me to see fabulous homes graced with breathtaking views and make my living matching these homes with just the right buyers.
