IMO It's About Building a Reltionship

In a sea of thousands of Realtors, here's the unique value I think I provide:

On an average workday, I probably spend 75% of my time helping my current clients and easily 25% helping my past clients. It doesn't matter how long ago I helped you buy or sell a property. I have an open-door policy. Call me anytime. If I'm busy, I'll call you back.

I'm not the smartest guy in town when it comes to this stuff, but I do have 11 years of experience as a landlord and real estate investor, 7 as an agent. More often than not I won't have the perfect answer or solution, but I know someone who does, and I can introduce you to the right person—someone who's not going to rake you over the coals just to make a quick buck.

So many of my life’s greatest relationships have started with a real estate transaction, my life is so much richer because of the people who care about me who I surround myself with, I’m incredibly lucky and it’s all because of this community.

 I agree 100%. This business as stressful as it can be, is 1000x better with good relationships.
