Relationships With Other Realtors………No Not That Kind!
June 24th, 2009 categories: Coconut Grove Real Estate
To be successful in real estate, it is not only important to cultivate good relationships with your clients, but also to maintain a good working relationship with the other Realtors in town. I can honestly say that I have a professional and friendly relationship with just about every Realtor in Coconut Grove. Doing so, benefits me and my clients.
Let me tell you about a couple of recent happenings:
- Last week I had some clients who were looking at townhouses in Center Grove so I called a few Realtors up to see if they had any properties that were coming on the market soon but not yet listed. Berk Boge happened to have a great townhouse that he was listing the next day. Before he put it on the MLS I took my clients over to see it and they submitted their offer the day it was officially listed for sale. It certainly pays to have the inside scoop.
- I ran into Javier Gonzalez of ReMax on Friday night at Scotty’s and we got to talking about some properties. My new listing on Lennox Drive came up and he said that he may have some buyers for it.
- My listing that went under contract in one day on Chucunantah received an offer because I knew that an agent in my office had the perfect buyer for this house. I took the agent and her buyer to the house the day it came on the market and they submitted an offer immediately.
These are just a few examples of why it is very important to use a realtor who has a good relationship with other local realtors and who has strings to pull if need be.
