If you are in Real Estate I am sure you've heard this....
I have a huge sphere, of course I have those past and present clients but my
"people I am in contact with all the time" Is 2 schools and everybody associated with them, Girl Scouts and community friends is about 2000 or so people.
Well, they all know I am in Real Estate and will never forget it (if you know what I mean).
Every chance I get I am boasting about a house or a buyer or a seller,
I have done this for so long, I don't even know I am doing it.
So, a couple of weeks ago I turn on the computer (coffee in hand, it was Sunday) and in one of my groups someone posts "I want to see this home please call me if you can show it to me"
Nobody answered but me!?!
I was off and running in less than 1/2 hour
How easy was that? within 2 days they were approved and in contract.
Then last weekend, my listing that is on the main street in my area of specialty. I get a phone call, a woman tells me she needs to find a home,
come to find out she is very good friends with one of my very good friends, I have only met a handful of times (goes to show, some people can be told you are in Real Estate but it may not register, until they actually need a Realtor).
I am still working to get her and her husband that home, her husband wants to find a home that will not lose value...
As I told him, I just have to find the home he loves, because without that crystal ball,
nobody knows where the bottom is.
People are not going to come knocking at your door, well, if you don't have a For Sale sign on your lawn.
But the simple attempt to help people can bring people your way.
I have triplets (this is quite the attention grabber).
So everybody who is involved with kids knows me.
And I also volunteer in many facets of my community. I am now involved in a project to assist the school in bringing the community and our children closer together and learning to work together.
My area Berryessa Union School District, is a number 9 on the 1-10 scale, not by chance, but because people such as myself, in my community all working together to make it a better place to live, work, volunteer, play and learn.
Ask me how to get involved in your community, or in mine.
If you want a fulfilling year to look back on, think about how you can help your community,
it may be the perfect New Years resolution.
