Realtor For "The Family"

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Realty
Yesterday I showed an excellent property to the mother of some past clients. It is a very comfortable arrangement because the level of trust is already there and it is very easy to communicate when the client feels comfortable. I always appreciate these referrals. Last year I helped 3 individual members of the same family all in an 18 month period! My client loved the ranch I showed her, it was right around the corner from her daughter and in an excellent neighborhood. It had all updated systems:new furnace, new windows, new roof and hardwood floors and a fireplace. All it would need would be to spruce up the kitchen and baths.  It is a "gem" in the rough. It's amazing the "good" buys that are popping up in this marketplace now.It would also make a perfect investment property. My client plans to rent it until she can move here in a couple years

It is great to work with family members. My family has been in the business since 1964. I am selling homes to grandchildren of people my mother sold homes to when she first started. The referral business is the best. If you haven't been to a Turning Point Retreat you should go. It will take you to the next level in building a referral based business.
