Hi, I'm Fulton. I'm An HGTV Junkie.

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Realty

O.K., I'll admit it, I'm an HGTV junkie.

As if I can't get enough of showing houses during my work day as a Realtor, I gotta' go home and turn on Property Virgins or Holmes On Homes, or My First Place, or House Hunters International. And now I've got my wife and youngest daughter hooked, too.

I think it's actually a natural addiction. As a full-time Realtor very little of my time is actually spent touring neighborhoods and viewing homes.  As a full-time Realtor most of my time is spent marketing, trying every way I can to initiate and foster relationships with ready, willing, and able buyers and sellers of residential real estate here in Central Virginia.

And I used to tell newly licensed agents the same thing when they answered the "why do you want to get into real estate" question with "because I love looking at houses...".

I absolutely love looking at houses, too.  And I love the entire process of working the transaction, from setting up showing routes, writing and negotiating offers, and putting together a tailored closing present for my clients.

But, as I alluded to, I'm really a professional marketer that just happens to show homes.  I WISH I had my own show on HGTV, I think that would be a dream.  But, until my big break comes, I think I'll be very content working with buyers and sellers, here, in the Charlottesville area of Central Virginia.

So, here are some of the ways I'm marketing and trying to get your attention...please, take a look and tell me if I'm on the right road, won't you?

1. Central VA HUD Homes--because I'm a Registered HUD agent

2. Charlottesville Luxury Homes--where I'm most comfortable

3. Forest Lakes Properties--selling where I live

4. Charlottesville 1st-Time Home Buyers--always have loved working with the 1st Time Home Buyers

5. Blogs and more blogs--publish or perish!

6. Relocating 2 Charlottesville--offering my insight as a transplanted Yankee

I think that we are all addicted to watching those shows.  If nothing else, at least we know where the ideas are coming from when we hear them from our buyers and sellers!  You are right that in this business we spend an equal amount of time educating ourselves on how to do our jobs even better as we do to actually doing it.  Good luck to you!
