Need a Realtor in your area ?

One of the challenges a Realtor faces, is linking up with other like-minded Realtors to whom you can refer your out-of-area clients. You might ask other Realtors you know for whom they know, but there is no guarantee that the person you end up with will take great care of your client, or will reciprocate the referral. Good Realtors look beyond the scope of their target area, and understand that their clients needs may physically be a distance away. The question to be asked is: How do I best take care of my clients needs ? Do I give the service they want and need ,or do I provide them with a local expert ? Through an open and honest conversation, a decision will be made.
Knowing that our clients deserve top notch service, one of our selling propositions is the fact that we are partners in a province wide, soon to be country wide, Referral Network. REAL Referral Partners is a fresh, innovative group of individuals who have a passion for their work, a commitment to solid service, and a vision to grow their own and their partner's businesses through referrals. Monthly meetings encourage relationships and are a causeway for sharing business ideas with each other. The face of Real Estate is constantly evolving and REAL Referral Partners is about knowing the cutting edge technology and marrying it with solid service. Buyers and Sellers are internet savy - Realtors need to adapt to meet and exceed their wants and needs.
So...need a Realtor in your area ? Contact us at kristinandanita.ca and we will refer you people we know and trust !

I am NOT giving my house away !

Every time I am part of a listing presentation, I am introduced to the most amazing stories about the passion a owner has for the home they are trying to sell. One phrase is very clearly heard over and over again: I am not giving my house away. Initially, that may sound like a financial demand, but when you hear the emotion in the voice and see the eyes grow large, that then is the expression of the deep commitment to the work that was poured into the home and the desire to be compensated for the work. Now if only the Real Estate Market cared about such passion ! Then homes that are lovingly maintained would be worth more than houses that serve only as a shelter. Reward for care given ! Thankfully well maintained homes are in high demand and usually sell well within the average days in market statistics. So...what triggers the pride you have in your home ? When it comes time to sell will you take a strong stand on all the sweat equity ? A wise man once told me that in business, it is good business to leave some on the table for the next guy. Will you ?
