Congratulations Teri! I am so proud of you and happy for you for going for it! That is  a great move! You know there are lots of brokers ready to help you! 

Welcome to the world of small independents!  I launched last year, and it was very crazy, but I am very focused and excited this year.  Congrats!

 CONGRATULATIONS 'LADY IN RED' -- ON YOUR NEW BROKERAGE! THERE IS NO DOUBT YOU WILL BE FABULOUS! I AM INSPIRED BY YOUR BIG MOVE AND WISH YOU MUCH LUCK, SUCCESS AND A VERY PROSPEROUS BUSINESS! YOUR FRIEND,

CANDACE

Wow Candace, how cool is that? I love the bling and the red - of course!! AND you too!!! ;-) Thanks for your good wishes and your friendship.

Congratulations, Teri. I hope Homes Arizona Real Estate turns out to be everything you hope it to be. Let us know how you are doing with it in six months. It would be a great follow up post.

Hi Teri,

Good Job!!  I really do like your new "Lady in Red."  Can you get blond hair on the old one?

 Hey Teri that's very cool news, I'm happy & excited for you and wish you the best luck possible with your new venture. Now I understand when you mentioned something about a BIG project, again congrats!!!

Congrats! This is awesome Teri! I hope one day I can do the same thing!!

Teri, CONGRATS!!  YOU ARE GOING TO LOVE IT!! I just recently hit my three year anniversary and I can't imagine going back.  With today's technology there is not anything that we can't do ourself. 

Jill, thank you so much. I'll be here in six months keeping everyone in the loop. ;-)

Leslie, I wish I could make her blonde......I'll have to search around for another one. I just LOVE this one though with the phone in her ear. Reminds me of me!!!

Marti, that tells me you DO read the post.....you knew there was a large project. I didn't want to let the cat out of the bag so as not to jinx it. Thanks for the kind words Marti, I appreciate them. ;-)

Lindsay, just don't wait as long as I did to get around to it. I knew it was a "good" thing two years ago. Took me awhile to get out of my comfort zone...... it's all good. ;-) Thank you very much.

Marchel, thank you.....three years? How cool is that? You know? I always did it all myself anyway. My own leads, my own websites? Silly that I waited so long. As my brother says, we just got a raise!!!

That is a great accomplishment, Congrats and I hope you have many years of success.

How wonderful, Teri!!!!  I'm so excited for you, and I would wish you luck, but heck, I don't think you'll need it.  When do the first signs go up and do we get pictures?  :)

Teri, you are right, you just got a raise and you are going to LOVE IT!!  It is a big change but not REALLY as you were doing it already. 

Dee, thank you so much. I appreciate your good wishes.

Lisa, lol......the signs will be ready next week. I'll share when they're ready. ;-)  My business cards should be here tomorrow. Thank you so much.

Marchel, how exciting to hear such good things from all of my AR friends. Thanks so much. ;-)

Congratulations on taking the next step.  We wish you luck.

Eliese, thank you very much. A late step, but better late than .... ;-)

Well Congratulations!!!!

Onwards and upwards.

You're going to be very successful!!!!!! 

Shailesh, thank you so much! Just coulda shoulda done it sooner, you know? :-)

Well now Lady in Red. CONGRATULATIONS.  I'M SURE ALL WILL GO WELL FOR YOU. You also did with class as far as mentioning your past office. My "roof" is off to you.

Maria, thank you so much. I appreciate your reading it, and my former office was fabulous!

Teri--Wanted to give you big congrats and wish you all success on your new brokerage company!!!!

Jeannette, thank you so much. I'm very excited.

Let me be the first errrr... 29th to congratulate you!

.....and may your new broker not work you too hard ;-)

(but I suspect she will). 

Chuck, thank you so much. Yup, she probably will! ;-)

Good luck to you. Its a rough business as you very well know but having your own brokage is the best way to go.

Richard, I think so as well. It was time for me to hang my sign. I've always been on my own anyway, so why not go for it? ;-)  Thanks for coming by and for your comment.

YOU ROCK GIRLFRIEND!!!!
Of course we are proud of you! I can say...I knew you when!!!!
Congratulations

CONGRATULATIONS!!! You will have no regrets!

Good for you! We're coming up on 5 years in our own office and we love it. I bet you do, too. Freedom is a really nice thing.

Teri--I find this very ironic as I just had a conversation about how the trend to go out on your own is going to continue and expand with a broker/manager who basically told me I was nuts...Looking at you, Marchel, BB and several others that I respect, vindicates my statement. Congratulations! I think this will be an awesome move for you.

Joeann, I appreciate your congrats.....you've been a HUGE resource of information, and I appreciate your teaching skills and knowledge. Just because I've completed the GRI - actually my last class to obtain the GRI was with you on 9/11......what a day that was!!! AND your class on technology was awesome. I learned so much.....thank you again. ;-)

Loreena, thank you so much. I am all over it!!! ;-)

Leslie, I love flying solo - so to speak!! Thank you for stopping by.

The other Teri E: thank you Teri, and go for it if you're thinking that way. As far as I am concerned, name (Teri Ellis, the Lady In Red) recognition is very important. Now is a great time to go out on our own. We're not as busy (making money), and it is such a cool feeling. Kinda like rearranging your furniture in that room full of stuff - know what I mean? ;-)

Congratulations and the best of lucK! You'll do great and knowing you...will go forward full force!

Sally, thank you so much for the congrats! I'm on my way. ;-)

Congratulations, Lady in Red!  I hope everything works out for you.  Thanks for all the awesome posts!

Sorry to be so late to the party but.. A big fat CONGRATS to you! I wish you nothing but the best and I know you will do a great job. Sincerely, Nick

Ryan, thank you sooooo much. I appreciate the kudos! AND you're welcome. However I can help, I'm glad to do it.

Nick, just as long as you got here. ;-)  Thank you so Nick, I appreciate the thought.

Hi Teri,

Congratulations this is an awesome move for you! Best of luck :)

Hi Suzanne, thank you so much. It's an exciting move.........

Hi Teri, 

I am late to the party, been out of the rain.

Congratulations to you and your new company!  I know you've worked hard to get to this point, I'm excited for you and I know you will be very successful!  

(big wow to the graphic from Candace, that's beautiful.)   

Doreen 

Doreen, thank you so much. Don't they say, better late than never? ;-)  I appreciate your stopping by.

Teri- Wow what great news....and I could kick myself for missing this when it came out :(  Oh well...I'm here now, and I really am so glad you took the plunge.....I remember your other Post.  And to start with 6 listings pretty cool :)  I;ll be picking your brain soon as I need to get my Arizona Brokers License soon :)

Kathy, thank you so much. Just as long as you found your way here. Actually seven listings and two under  contract! That IS cool. Our market is starting to make a move!!

Are you moving to Arizona?

Congratulations Teri! I am so excited for you. It is definitely a moment to remember. Good luck with you new endeavor!

Mina, thank you so much. I appreciate your encouragement and good wishes.

very best wishes.

Margaret, thank you very much. ;-)
