The other day one of my client's asked me if I would contact the new home sales person to discuss a particular concern that they had. "Of course" I said. "I am your advocate in this transaction!" "I work for YOU!".
After hanging up, I wondered to myself if perhaps I have not fully explained to all of my clients this concept of what it means to be represented by a licensed real estate agent? When I am hired to represent someone in a real estate transaction, I am their ADVOCATE! So really what is the definition of an advocate?
-
1.a person who publicly supports or recommends a particular cause or policy.
synonyms: champion, upholder, supporter, backer, promoter, proponent,exponent,
spokesman, spokeswoman, spokesperson, campaigner, fighter, crusader
Those synonyms are some strong words! A champion! Upholder! Supporter! Fighter! Why yes, as your real estate representative I am those things for you! That is why you are hiring a trusted agent!
Allow me to be your ADVOCATE in your next real estate transaction! Who doesn't want someone in their corner defending the cause? You are never alone in the rocky waters of real estate.
I am looking forward to working with you, representing you and yes, being a trusted advocate!
