It's time to sell your house, and you need to find an agent. You remember Aunt Barbara is an agent, do you call her?
Hiring family or friends, when embarking on a Real Estate transaction is a double edged sword. You want to help your person out, give them the business, but is it always the right thing to do for you? Relationship status is important, but you need to make sure your friend/family member has the right stuff to get the job done.
The ability to asses your needs and then disassociate your relationship is important. You need honesty, along with skill, to help facilitate your real estate goals. Home buying or selling is a stressful time, a huge and expensive life decision sometimes deserves requiring having someone you don't have a personal relationship with. I pride myself in being able to take my fried hat off and become the professional you hired. If something goes awry in this stressful time, I promise that I can be objective, and not hold it against you, my friend, if this business relationship can't continue.
And let's face it, if we're friends, we have an personalities that mesh well. That's not always the case with your friend or family member. Sometimes you're doing business with them, because you or your parents always did, or because they are your friend or family member. That's not always the best solution to your Real Estate goals.
OK, Michelle, nice pitch, but I still don't want to hire you. OK, but later, you're still going to call me and ask me the questions, you're too afraid to ask the guy you're paying. So, why not let me refer you to someone else? That way I can help, and still get a referral fee from the other agent. That goes for anyone worried about me not knowing the Kalamazoo area, because I work out of the Tampa Bay area. All that being said, if you love me, are 100% comfortable with me, then hire me!
And I can tell you one thing, I am your Agent, and I can disassociate business relationships from personal ones. You'll be pleased at how professional and attentive to your needs and this transaction I will be. Call me today for an analysis of your homes value, or the value of the neighborhood you want to live in.
And remember, I’m your agent for life!
