Paying Extra Was Worth It

Real Estate Agent with Transaction Alliance 513.520.5305 www.LizTour.com SAL.2002007747

Working as a real estate agent/engineer means with two careers there's not a lot of down time.  Fact is my To Do list is repopulates itself in a hurry, so when I get a chance to take a break, I'm looking to make it count.  Today was one of those days.  Liz's aunt is visiting from Maryland and we planned a trip months ago to visit Kings Island this afternoon. 

Kings Island is one of the best theme parks in the US for roller coasters.  Small, big, wood, steel, smooth or bone rattling, they've got it there.  I don't get there often, but enjoy riding the coasters when I get the chance.  But what I didn't really have time for today was standing in line for hours waiting to ride for a few minutes.  We had rumblings of offers coming in on our listings and I wanted to enjoy, but still keep myself available.  Enter a Kings Island add-on offering called Fast Lane.  It's a premium surcharge to your ticket that for that day provides entrance to a secret society.....okay, not really, but they do give you access to an express line for most of the rides.  That special access literally saved me hours of standing in line, and yes, I did spend time between rides talking to buyer's agents about our listings.  So in a few hours we got our fill of coasters and headed home.

Now when it comes real estate, it's not that much different than going to Kings Island, some people just want to pay the regular price, and others are willing to pay for the Fast Lane experience.

That's my job as a real estate agent, to provide you the Fast Lane experience.  I take care of the behind the scenes work, get your home exposed to the public, represent you throughout the process and make sure you get to focus on the other important things in your life.  And you just get to take care of the "ride" part while I do the virtual standing in line part!

     Roller coasters!  White knuckles, and your hair blowing back, while your stomach goes up and down.  What could be more fun? 

   Ditto on paying for the fast lane... we learned that trick years ago when we took our kids to a theme park in south Georgia (Wild Adventures).  It was worth every penny.

The fast lane is well worth ther extra especially when you have sat in the slow lane for any amount of time.

Well written, I enjoyed the read, as I too, am a coaster fan. I remember riding one 11 straight times, with my Dad. I thought he was going to have a heart attach, because you know, all parents are OLD!

I won't get on a roller coaster for love nor money. But I regularly remind my clients that they do get what they pay for with me.

Fred, Certainly not cheap, but well worth it for me.

William, I've done that occasionally to.  Liz isn't much of a roller coaster fan, so I might go solo for few hours and standing in those lines gets old fast.

Evelyn, I've done one a few times in a row in the past, but not 11 :)

Nina, They jar me more than they used to!  I've got a couple of shoulder marks today from the harnesses.

Hi Bill - Good analogy for what we do at our best. Our granddaughters are at Disney World right now, and they're enjoying fast lane access. If I were with them, I'd pay a lot not to listen to them complain as we stood in interminable lines.

BLiz- what a good analogy.  This reminds me of when we lived in Houston and had season tickets to the Rockets.  I knew that we were getting old when Larry was willing to pay $10 (would be $20 or $30 today) just to park closer and not have to fight the traffic.
