When you feel like you've given it your all don't give up... Something good is bound to happen soon.
To be quite honest I've had a frustrating couple of months. My sellers are getting antsy, my buyers are having a hard time getting financed, and I have had two deals in contract for over a month. I've been sitting on pins and needles waiting for them to close. I keep on thinking to myself, "Could I please get a couple routine transactions in the midst of all of these difficult transactions? I just don't know how much more I can take!" I had almost given up on 2007. This sounds pathetic and whiney I know, please keep reading it gets better...
However, I kept on doing what I do...
•1) Send out my monthly mailers
•2) Contact buyers and sellers on a regular basis
•3) Keep contact with lenders to know the best programs out there
•4) Work with all my buyers the same no matter how difficult I think the transaction is going to be.
Well, something great happened yesterday. Yes, my persistence paid off.
A past client of my team, I work on all transactions with my father, contacted us because we are so consistent and have proven to be the EXPERTS in our area.
Our buyer needs to spend millions of dollars in the next couple of months, and guess who gets to be the agents to write all 
the transactions. You guessed it; my father and me.
The message to all agents feeling somewhat how I was feeling. Please keep doing what you are doing. Your clients know that you too are the EXPERTS in your area. Don't forget to stay in contact and remind them of this though. Your next great transaction is just around the corner!
