How we do it …
With over 2,500 real estate agents in the metro Albuquerque area, whom do you choose to represent you? Purchasing a home is the most significant financial and emotional investment one makes in their lives. Knowing what to buy, where to buy, how much to pay and how to get the best financing rates for your home can save you thousands of dollars. A "Typical" Real Estate Agent spends their time as follows:
Ø Before: 70 to 80% Marketing (cold calling, prospecting, mailers, door knocking, etc.)
Ø During: 10 to 20% Operations (working with clients, showing homes, writing contracts, etc.)
Ø After: 5 to 10% of their time handling a client’s affairs during the escrow process.
Ø After Sale: 0 to 5%
We, on the other hand, spend 75% of our time during the transaction, educating our clients and being advocates for them. We spend our other 25% of time serving our clients’ needs AFTER the transaction has been concluded. We can spend our time this way because the vast majority of our business comes from recommendations from our client base. Only a small portion of our business, less than 25%, comes from cautious people who find us on the Internet or on sign calls. Real simple … the “marriage” may be real bliss at first but once you enter the escrow period, over fifty people are involved with your transaction. During this period, it is important that you have retained someone who is willing to dedicate their time to managing these various relations and making the process flow as smoothly as possible. In the end, if the result exceeds your expectations, we trust that you will rely on us for your future real estate needs and endorse us to your friends, family, and business associates. Your satisfaction and subsequent referrals are the basis of our future. In short, we want to be your Real Estate Consultants … for life.
