Being a good, experienced Realtor is having each partnership result in the kind of process and home sale or purchase that leaves the best of tastes. The one that, like a good wine, “finishes” nicely without being dominated by stress or annoyances. An educated choice that leaves a result that feels right for a long time.
Being a good advisor is also about being available for any question concerning all sorts of planning priorities and factors. It’s about a Realtor using ones breath of experience to ensure a client is satisfied long term by educated decisions the Realtor facilitates – no matter how long that takes! Decisions based on seeing and exploring lot’s of choices rather than the short sighted easier short term few. This is true not just for buying. When selling there are many choices in terms of such as price, timing, fixing up, staging, etc. For both buying and selling there are many approaches to negotiating available to the experienced Realtor!
As a small hands on brokerage Metro Area Realty offers a variety of very personalized services and high tech tools to provide strategies and solutions to meet all your real estate goals. As a Micro-Indie business we are not bound by corporate policies that interfere with creativity, impact on the services you receive or in any way limit the loyalty and dependability of our partnership. We identify key areas that will strengthen your success and develop a personal marketing plan for your review – not blind acceptance. We encourage that you take enough time to think things through as the best way to get it right. That includes clients not feeling they are too pushed or pulled since buying or selling a home is one of life's major purchases!
The small business model works best in real estate. However, many individual Realtors in large companies head up large teams where a junior member does the work. They pretend they are a small business and hide to a large extent their corporate affiliation and that they are part of a larger conglomerate. The fact is – there remain for them a lot of corporate strategies and policies that have to either be adhered to or are inherent in their earnings structure. For example, generating/working many leads becomes more of a priority than putting in the proper amount of time on each client. This limits the proper quality and quantity of focus. Additionally, affiliations with lender or settlement companies “seem” to be easy/convenience one stop shopping but often end up not competitive enough to be financially beneficial. This is not what we consider the small business model.
Importantly, this brokerage was created out of 25+ years of business experience and operates successfully in a technologically savvy world. But technology is only one means to an end. If you think that having all the information will ensure your success go to any Realtor web site with a lot of pages and most likely it is boiler plate nonsense written by someone other than the Realtor. All the to do and consider lists are very often not only the lowest common denominator mass market appeal stuff…but also not always accurate information either. All with the hope, again, of getting their clients to do most of the work themselves without customized for their situation.
Metro Area Realty believes a small business model best serves – you! And you are the most important and central person in a real estate transaction – not big company profits.
