The Thrill of the Deal

I just read and commented on a blog post by Broker Bryant on negotiating. He loves to negotiate and so do I and we follow alot of the same procedures.

Real Estate for me has always been the thrill of the deal. Don't get me wrong I really love to show houses and will show you anything you want to see, take you to lunch and spend the whole day with you, if you ARE going to buy a house from me.

But I still get excited when I put my pen to the paper and write the offer, then we evaluate and formulate a counter offer and get the deal together. It's a rush for me and I love it.

Keeping our deals together and not letting them fall apart over home inspections is also another part of this business that is interesting to me. Sometimes you just have to think outside of the box!

Of course, this is something that really makes my day too. One of my clients told me that I was like his mother in real estate. I thought that was really sweet. For some of us, this business is just in our blood and we get up everyday and just can't wait to go to work!
