After reading a blog this morning written by Kate Wheeler titled "Do What You Love and The Money Will Follow," it made me think about what I actually love about the real estate business and how fortunate I've been for the past 31 years. I thought about the past years and of the many different phases of the business to which I had been exposed before I realized what my passion really was. Whatever the focal point of the market was in the past, that's where my energies were directed. For instance, when income tax laws first allowed great right offs for investors, I convinced multitudes of them to purchase multifamily properties from me. Millions of dollars of three and four family homes were closed, and I dreaded every showing.
It wasn't until I sold my first new home that the love affair began, and the past 21 years of my career have been an ongoing honeymoon with new construction. I've been blessed in many ways. My team members enable us to service multiple subdivisions at one time. We presently have four subdivisions and our workload is evenly distributed among all of the team members. I would not be able to handle four subdivisions alone. My marketing has become easier since I joined Active Rain. Internet exposure and prime placement on the Internet get an A+ because of Active Rain. I've been blessed again!!
