I just thought I would bring this subject up to see how others are working through this difficult issue. I have a young daughter and my wife works with me along with other team members (www.yourwattsteam.com) and we represent several builder and developers along with general brokerage clients.
Between the different communities and general brokerage listings, we are currently servicing over 150 listings in addition to working with buyers and being the preferred Agent for SC state employees in the Charleston region. The follow up and extensive communications we have put in place are helping us make it through the slower market but they are also creating a 15 hour/day work schedule. There isn't enough income to bring in an administrative/office assistant right now and the mundane but necessary tasks are nonstop.
I have averaged in excess of 4000 minutes/month on my cell phone and have killed the tracball on 3 Blackberry Pearls in less than 18 months. So now that everyone gets the picture, how are you dealing with these issues and trying to have some semblance of a balance?
