"We Think In Generalities, But We Live In Details" An Alfred North Whitehead Quote by Silicon Valley REALTOR Michelle Carr Crowe

When you are in Real Estate for a long time, you begin to have a general idea of how to go about your business. This is true for any profession if you think about it! When we are successful with doing our "usual" things, it becomes a habit to just keep doing them. But when that happens, we miss the details that are actually happening!

Having a keen eye for these details is what can make a smooth transaction into a referral instead of a one-time exchange. Do not treat your clients as you would "generally" treat people. Instead, go above and beyond! It makes them know you're invested in what they want, and not just hoping to get a sale out of them.

The devil is in the details and we need to pay attention to them to get to closing without drama.

I like the wisdom and truth that emanates from that title line, Michelle.  Like Chris Ann says, "The devil is in the details."

One of the things that impressed both of us when working with Ron and Alexandra Seigel was their attention to detail. They are focused on all of it - no matter how seemingly small.

Michelle,

Nice quote, generalities can spoil the deal,  And thank you for the mention Debb Janes EcoBroker and Bernie Stea JD.  I have been mulling over a potential post onf the same subject.   Happy Sunday, Michelle 

The devil is always in the details as they say, the actual quote was that God was in the details by architect,Ludwig Mies van der Rohe.
