Love Actually

Mia just told me we are 4 full days away from Christmas. I guess that’s true, and as we are approaching the end of the year, I wanted to take a look at the year and thank my clients. I keep writing about my awesome clients, but everyone has awesome clients. Or at least no one would dare to say anything different… How would it sound; “Those jerks I’m forced to listen to, and drive around endlessly… the ones that don’t listen and are just a pain to work with!” Ummm… let’s stick with awesome.

But I honestly only have awesome clients. I truly love them, and during the process you get to know them, maybe better than they initially wanted or thought. My official role ends as the transaction closes and the agency relationship ceases to exist, but the journey still continues. I no longer can advise or recommend as their broker, but I can answer questions or refer for sure. Refer to professionals that can help solve problems that may have come up.

Some clients find what they are looking form in a few weeks. For most it’s a process. We start wide, and narrow it down. There are times when we have ended in a completely different place from where you initially wanted to start from. There are times when it’s truly hard for you, it’s hard, sometimes so hard you choose to be benched for a while, and then we get back to it. But let me assure you, you never, ever bother me. It’s okay to explore options, it’s okay to change your mind. It’s a process, and during the process things change. I have yet to meet the client that buys the first home they see, because they just happen to have that clear of a vision.

I miss them when they go. I’m happy we found their dream home and the transaction closed on time. But I miss those coffees, drives and chats. I have fun with you. I have fun laughing at the oddities we see when touring homes, and placing your furniture in an imaginary way. So, it’s never a goodbye and gone. If I don’t hear from you, I wonder how things are going, if the home we found you turned out just as perfect as we you thought. It’s a dinner at their home after closing. It’s house warming parties, and it’s that weekly coffee date knitting. I cherish those moments and the relationships we have built.

So, thank you! Thank you for reaching out, and choosing me! I am truly honored having gotten to know you and your lives.
