7. Why did you get into real estate?

My husband and I had family members who passed away and their properties needed to be sold. Over the course of 5 years there were 3 properties that we had to sell.

For the first property, we hired the most popular realtor and were profoundly disappointed with his lack of work ethic and inability to listen to our needs.

For the second property, we hired a different realtor, who was also very popular, but we were disappointed in her detached churn and burn approach. we felT handled.

The third realtor we hired HAD a team which had a high volume of sales, but they were very careless. they made several mistakes, and passed off accountability to other members of the team. I felt they were too busy for me, that they always need to be somewhere else.

A realtor's work isn't easy, but I always felt I could do better.

These experiences helped me develop a sense of empathy and humility I bring to every interaction I have with my clients. When I work with buyers and sellers, I am fully vested, I don't put a time limit on the process, and I treat each client as if they are my only client, putting them first at all times.
