Past clients called me and are ready to make a lifestyle change. Back in 2005 I helped them sell their home and purchase a property on a large lot with plenty of place for a pool. The kids are now gone and it's time to "smart size". They want to be able to "lock and go" if they want to take off and travel and feel secure in leaving a smaller residence unoccupied.
I compiled their market analysis and we met and went over the numbers. The house has their relaxed touch of comfortability and the pool and grounds are spectacular!
We started laughing about looking for their last house and how we made an offer on another property and they just didn't feel right about it therefore terminated the offer. They drive by that house every day and always breathe a sigh of relief they didn't end up with that one!
Isn't it wonderful you can pick up right where you left off with past clients? It is about the "experience" that will bring clients back to you for repeat business. Counting on you to be knowledgeable and represent them with their best interests at heart is why they will want to work with you again and again. I've helped members of their family purchase homes and answered real estate questions throughout the years for them.
I'm grateful to say it's like old times working together again! If you are looking for this kind of service and moving in NW Austin please check out our website www.reloaustin.com or email me at dillard@reloaustin.com to schedule an appointment to review your needs.

'Smart size" I wish I would have done that years ago...I also need to learn to "smart dispose" of all that I have collected.
Great reminder of how much fun and relaxing it is to work with (most) previous clients!!
"Smart Size" - love it! We've started seeing return clients, which is our business, doesn't happen every day - its FANTASTIC!
What a wonderful phrase. And yes I'm working on repeat transaction with some clients and it is wonderful to reconnect. They were surprised I remembered the kids and even the dogs names.
Dorie its evident that when you do a good job for a client you will get repeat business, it is not surprise these clients called you again :)
That is the biggest compliment you can get. All that time passes and they naturally come back to you. But then I wouldn't expect anything else.
Good morning Sharon,
After being in the business for 21 years I do see a large amount of repeat business with clients are very much enjoy!
Hi Cindy,
Isn't it fun?? Years go by, our kids grow up, life brings changes yet we are still able to re-connect!
Hi Jane,
I do keep in contact with my past clients which helps keep me on their minds when they think Real Estate!
Dorie ~ To me this is the best facet of our business, being able to pick-up and help people realize their goals and dreams. I feel honored to have a part in this process. It's obvious you work for and with your Clients to achieve their goals! That, my friend, is a result of your hard work and commitment . . .
Dorie,
Congratulations, that is such an awesome feeling. Almost all of my business this year has been those calls and I love repeat customers.
All the best, Michelle
