Referrals are REALTORS® best friends and contribute much to the overall success of the individual agent.

Today being that it is Thankful Thursday I thought I would share one of my favorite referrals. And the source of that referral came from right here on ActiveRain.

One afternoon I was out and about busily taking care of some of the many details of running your own real estate consulting business. As I sometimes do I left my cell phone at home. The tasks that I needed to do were all close at hand so I didn’t worry about it.

Like many professional real estate agents I have an office and a home office. I do most of my administrative work from my home office. You can imagine my delight when I arrived back to my home office to find a voicemail on the home as well as the cell phone from Donna Foerster, real estate agent with Rocky Mountain Real Estate Advisors in Parker, CO. Donna's message was brief but sweet.

A local agent, Leanne Osgood in Donna’s office was looking for a real estate agent in the Collin County area namely Frisco. Donna and I had previously met the summer before so she graciously thought of me. I was delighted to be able to assist Leanne with her home buyers.

Within a couple of weeks the home buyers, Benney and Lucy were on a plane headed to Dallas. We met face to face for the first time that Saturday morning in the Frisco KW® office. They were ready and eager to find their new Frisco home. We had identified a list of homes for them to see upon their arrival.

It was an enjoyable day house hunting in Frisco. Benney and Lucy were a pleasure to work with. Best part,  they knew what they were looking for. After a late lunch we drove over to the Queen’s Gate, a neighborhood in Frisco located just off of Preston Rd North. Originally all the homes in this neighborhood were ruled out because of the zero lot line properties. But when this one home came up it seemed to have an allure and on the list it went.

As a REALTOR® you know when you have found the “one”! The light goes on, the eyes sparkle and the grins go up. We spent the next hour or so as I delighted in watching this couple imagine their life in their new home. Buyers sent an offer with the sellers making only a couple of modest changes. At the end of the day they had purchased their Queen’s Gate home.

Do you know a REALTOR® - not all agents are REALTORS® - that you trust and respect? Be sure to send them your referrals from friends or family. It will make everyone’s journey brighter. Or let your REALTOR® find someone they trust to refer services to. Referrals are REALTORS® best friends and livelihood.

7549 Saint Stephens Square, Queens Gate FRISCO

Queens Gate, a gorgeous neighborhood located in the heart of Frisco which is a thriving community that offers much for today’s lifestyles. Queens Gate is a short distance east of Preston Rd and north of Stonebrook. The neighborhood itself may be quiet within its boundaries but its residents are only a few miles away from Stonebriar mall that is surrounded by every kind of shop and restaurant imaginable. Also located nearby is the playing field known as the Dr. Pepper Ballpark where one can go and watch the Frisco Roughriders play ball. Frisco is one rapidly growing, thriving community located north of Plano, TX and considered to be the fastest growing community in all of Texas.

The fabulous home pictured is located on Saint Stephens Square. It is under contract and as I write undergoing the scrutiny of the eyes of one of Texas’ finest home inspectors. It has  been just 5 days since the ink was wet on the contract yet these home sellers are eager to move. I was amazed at how much packing and preparation they had already done when I entered today to meet the home inspector. Another sign that the confidence in the housing market in North Central Texas is running high.
