Client Reviews Are Priceless

By
Real Estate Agent with Dirt Road Real Estate SA676002000

Often professional real estate agents request client reviews on Zillow, Facebook, brokerage websites, and sometimes those requests are granted.  Imagine my surprise when I received this client review on Zillow by B.Lee

"I recently worked with Leanne to sell a difficult piece of land with a challenging access road, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Leanne's communication was always timely and clear. She promptly notified me of all offers and prepared counteroffers efficiently. Her advice throughout the process was invaluable. Leanne truly went the extra mile, taking excellent photos of the land and even ensuring my property, which didn't have a formal address, was listed on Zillow. She is a true professional and I highly recommend her services."

My broker, Elise Harron, sent this client an email thanking him for this detailed client review. This morning I dropped off to the local post office a handwritten thank you note sharing my gratitude as well.

I am so grateful this 2.35 vacant land parcel was sold. And even more grateful receiving such a thoughtful and caring recommendation.

Yes, Life is Good

Yes, I love selling dirt.

Yes, I am the Grit and Gratitude Agent

Leanne, congrats on the great review!
I've been long convinced that a positive review is one of the most valuable pieces of marketing out there for us, especially in the circle of influence of that particular client.
I can write 100 blog posts about how we do business, but its all fluff to the average consumer.  But the words of someone who has been there and done that as a client?  You just can't beat that.

Hello Leanne - congratulations on another Mohave County Arizona testimonial.  It takes a special person to specialize and succeed in selling land.  Good for you.

I do believe it takes a special person to specialize and succeed in selling land, especially rural vacant land due to the lower valuation as well as numerous other factors from road access to zoning to flood plains. Thank you and good morning.

As professional agents we usually request reviews/recommendations, and often we are fortunate to receive actual response to that request.  So filled with gratitude regarding this particular review.
