I recently heard another realtor remark that she was almost hopeful she didn’t get any more referrals or listings for a couple of weeks. WHAT? Who says that? Slackers? Well, before you jump to those conclusions let me add that this person is someone I consider a true professional dedicated to a high level of customer service and genuinely invested in her career.
