I recently had a change in my real estate career.  I was very happy at my brokerage and to be honest, never thought I would leave my real estate family that I had come to love so much.  My boker came to me one day and explained that times are hard and that several people in the office wanted to know how can "we" as a team lower our office fees.  There was only one answer, drop the franchise.  I was crushed!  I loved being a RE/MAX Agent!  I faught with myself for days even weeks, what do I do?  My broker told me that she understood and that if I wanted to remain a RE/MAX agent, she would support me in any way that she could.  Knowing that, I knew that I would not loose a great friend because I choose to move my license.  It has been 3 months now and I have realized that not only did I not loose my friends from my old office but I gained many friends in my new office too. 

My new office, RE/MAX Premier, in Atoka, TN has been a breath of fresh air.  I will be honest, I was "afraid" of moving.  There is alot of cost in moving and just starting over is hard.  Everything was easy!  I had the support of my old broker and I gained the friendship and support of my new broker too.  All the agents work together and we all bounce ideas off of each other.  When a group of Realtors can come together and work for the same cause, without conflict, a since of warmth fills the air.  Buyers and Sellers have to be able to feel comfortable with thier agent.  A happy office, one that supports each other, makes for a better agent.  We all win, brokerage, agent and customer! 

How well are you supported?  Think about it, how many times have you walked into your office only to feel that "something" is just not right?  If you can feel it, so can your customers!
