Working with Buyers Brings me Great Joy!

There is a saying in the real estate business which says "You've got to list to last". While I agree that listings are indeed a cornerstone to the business, and the key to getting more buyers to find out about my services, there is nothing that brings me more joy in this business than telling a buyer "The sellers have accepted your offer"

This past week, I had the pleasure of meeting a lovely family from Bayonne, who have been looking for a home for quite a while, and they were visibly frustrated with their search process thus far. I first spoke with them on a Sunday, showed them quite a few homes on Monday, and they decided to make an offer on a lovely Northside Cranford home on Tuesday.

Well.. after a few days of negotiating on their behalf....Friday morning, while I was preparing to go to a friend's wedding, I worked in tandem with my clients to ensure that their written contracts were submitted to the sellers, and Friday night at 10:14 P.M., on my way home from that wedding, I was able to call them (with their prior permission, of course) to tell them "Congratulations! Your offer has been accepted and signed!" The joy and relief that my customers obviously had gave me chills. There is truly something special about helping a family find their new home. When I watched them interact as a family the next day when I met them at the property in Cranford, it was such a joy to see. I could tell how appreciative they were that they had found a place that they could call home, and I was truly proud to have been a part of this moment in their lives.

I know this may sound idealistic or cliche, but I really do love my job. I am hopeful that my enthusiasm for real estate, and helping people, enables me to provide a pleasant experience for all of my customers, whether they are moving to Cranford or Berkeley Heights, to buy real estate, or relocating to California, and I help them with their move.
