  • Ilyce, thank you for this

    Ilyce, thank you for this well written article that offers many valuable points. While making a careful choice in agents is imperative to a favorable outcome for buyers and sellers, it's still amazing, with all the available guidance in making that choice, and having an opportunity to screen agents in advance, that many consumers still fall victim to making a poor selection. Maybe it's due to the inconstistency of the agents performance, or maybe it's the intricate or variable nuances of the buyer's or seller's transaction that creates the complications, as every sale is unique. Unlike any other profession, many agents just aren't experienced or skilled enough to manage the complications or provide the technical enhancements that may be needed. This adds to the mix and underscores that due diligence is imperative along with an agent's skill set. And as you mentioned, when the agent skills and the relationship chemistry come together with a successful outcome for both the buyer and/or seller, and for the agent, you've found your match - a great experience and long term client relationship that will prosper through staying in touch and future referrals.

  • Tara, I found so much value

    Tara, I found so much value in your answer and article, as your recommendation to buyers is valuable and right on target. I particularly appreciate your point of obtaining credible information, not opinion, in seeking information and guidance. Real estate is local and buyers should obtain local, factual information right down to the neighborhoods that they are considering from statistics, recent sales, local changes involving traffic and industry, health concerns, schools, etc. Knowledge is be very empowering, which is where a great Realtor can be instrumental in their guidance. The more resources of information a buyer taps into, the better decision they will make, sooner and with utmost confidence. Thanks for your insight.

  • Very touching story, Brad.

    Very touching story, Brad. It served as a good reminder to us all to build a strong business foundation on basic systems and practices and cater to a niche market/neighborhood with remarkable and memorable experiences - branding with a difference. While many successful agents are not online, we should also consider the fact that buyers and sellers are online searching for neighborhood resources and information. If your agent had developed an online presence using a multitude of resources in conjunction with the neighborhood listings, neighborhood URLs, or neighborhood keywords, the likelihood of you finding him could have been days earlier. It's wonderful that your father valued and remembered that agent's presence and professionalism, keeping the agent's card close at hand. Treasure your father's wisdom, influence, and your inspiration. Best wishes to you and your family. Becky Boomsma Marketing Specialist, CRS, ePro, SRES Franklin Lakes, NJ www.BeckyBoomsma.com
