A couple of days ago, Annie, one of my agents, received a phone call from a woman who was being evicted.  The call came in at about 9:30 pm.  The woman told Annie that she had been praying for a solution to her family's problems, and in her desperation, since she couldn't sleep, she just picked up the phone and called our company at random. 

 

Annie called Dena, one of her clients first thing in the morning.  Dena is a lovely Christian woman who always prays for people and believes in miracles.  She agreed to let the desperate woman and her family move into one of her vacant units, a furnished condo.   No deposit, no rent, nothing.  Just gave her the keys and asked her to start paying rent when she can afford to. 

 

Dena has seen some good days and some bad days.  She is a deeply spiritual woman who prays for people in need and always tries to do the right thing.  Although Dena is up there in age, she looks much younger than her years, and her face is beautiful beyond belief.  Her eyes sparkle with a certain glow, peace and tranquility and she makes you feel right at home the very first time you meet her. 

 

I am proud of Dena!  I am proud of Annie!  We're so lucky to have roofs over our heads and food on our tables!  We're so lucky to have our health!  This is a wonderful life!  It sure feels right to share our good fortune!  Merry Christmas!

"It Is A Wonderful Life," and Dena is, "A Wonderful Woman."  G-d bless her for the kindness in her heart.

Darlene, thank you!  It means a lot to me: "Darlene Olivo-Buyers' Choice Agent, and proud of it!!!!"

We are all blessed indeed to be in such a good "work family". 

I am so very proud of my team! 

I made the decision about a year and a half ago, to only hire people I admire, people who have a good internal compass.  That was the best business decision I've even taken! 

The rest is history: we are such a great team!  We help each other, we count on each other, we support each other and we learn from each other.  I could not be happier!  Thank you Dar!  Thank you Brie!  Thank you Annie!  Thank you De!  Thank you Thomas!  ...Chris, our newest addition, glad to have you in our team!

Guys!  It is beyond this world....actually the Lady called @9:30 and said she had been praying to God for a Realtor who could help her family in their dire need.... After I had taken in all the criteria needs and realized I was not going to be able to help her....all of a sudden Dena came to my mind!  It was now 10:00pm and I told the Lady I had a Christian friend that might be able to help!!!  I explained that I too was a Christian and it is funny how so many Christians are always directed my way!!!  The Lady responded she too was a devout Christian!!!!  So, then I knew this was providence!!!  I told the Lady I would try to contact my friend and see what God had in store!!!  We hung up!  I immediately called Dena, it was now 10:00pm and this is a woman who generally goes to bed early!  I explained to Dena just what had occurred....she paused and said, "Annie I was just praying to God for someone to rent my townhome"!  And, the rest is history!!!!  I know that I was very brief in my description to my Broker but it truly is a MIRACLE!!!  Funny enough!  The next day I was talking to one of my Lender's about a closing schedule and I mentioned it to him, he listened and then told me his "miracle story" of a Preacher Client!  So, I too immediately thought I would love to see if there are any other MIRACLE stories to share! 

 In the immortal words of the infamous, TINY TIM: "GOD, BLESS US ALL!"

Dear Annie,

It is always a pleasure watching you in action!  The way you always try to help people in need is amazing.  You are an idealist, a dreamer, a dream maker, an action taker.  You don't have a mean bone in your body.  You are such a special person.  You are LOVELY! 

You believe, and that makes all the difference... 

Annie, you always put a smile on my face...  I am grateful for you!

You know I am very modest....so I am going to turn the tables!!  Just meeting you was, "Providential!"...

You are without a doubt the most amazing woman I have ever met!  (And you know that I have met Ms. Rosa Parks!)  So, that is a compliment of the highest form!!!!  When anyone looks in a dictionary upon the word.... GRACIOUS, there it is... a picture of you!!!!  It is an honor to work along side of you, and everyone in our office!  And, everyday is a new wonderful experience! 

Thank you for your kind words and the world is truly a better place with you in it!!!!!

Your humble servant....Annie!

That is too kind!  Working together strengthens us both. 

Our office has "Synergy"...
