Unlike most Realtors, I do not spend time prospecting for new business: I devote myself 100% to focusing on my current clients and my current business, on the here and now. In return, I ask that my clients refer me to anyone they know who might be interested in purchasing or selling real estate in the next 6 to 12 months. I need to know that my clients value my service and trust my expertise, and that they are hiring me for those reasons. If they truly do trust my expertise, then they know that in referring me to others they will be doing them a great service. To demonstrate that I believe in holding myself accountable for my performance, I give all of my clients the absolute right to cancel their agency agreements with me on 24-hours notice. This applies equally to Listing Agreements with Sellers, and to Exclusive Retainer Agreements with Buyers.

Buyers Remorse >For Sale to SOLD
It takes a lot more than a "For Sale" sign in the front yard, a Multiple Listing entry, and an occasional ad in the classifieds to get a listing sold. When real estate agents sell a house, we sometimes have to "sell" it again and again before the contract is actually signed by the buyers and sellers.
Many events must occur before the closing. The house must be "sold" to the buyers' relatives, the home inspector, the appraiser, and other experts. The buyers must secure a mortgage. At some point during the process, the buyers may go through a serious case of "buyers' remorse" and consider backing out of the transaction. Since the transaction could potentially fall through at any step in the process, you will find the services of a professional real estate agent invaluable. Agents continue to present the house in the best light possible and use thier professional skills to solve any problems that may arise.
