When you boil it down most real estate professionals have the core attribute of wanting to serve consumers. The desire to help others while being paid for the services provided attracts some very good-natured people. The good news is that there are great people out there with a truly altruistic motivation to serve, help and provide for others in need. From philanthropic endeavors, social services
and advocacy to individuals that passionately pursue social justice & equality-for-all pursuits. In two decades of working in this business we have identified unique agents that have been able pursue these honorable causes while having a successful real estate career. That is Local Agent. We are not a high-volume big real estate brokerage that encourages our agents to produce more, close more transactions & take more of the profits. That is a definition of success we simply don’t accept as fulfilling. We push our agents to find balance between work, rest & fun. We encourage our team to provide exceptional services while maintaining the balance in every facet of life that creates long-lasting & fulfilling vocations. When you approach business with a mindset of self-care & quality client interactions where clients feel cared for rather than just another commission opportunity then “success” happens. Putting others first looks different for every individual - we just happen to have a group of amazing people that have had previous careers and personal pursuits as social impactors that found a place to continue those important endeavors in the name of service. That is who we are. While we can claim that we are one of the last successful locally owned real estate brokers in town, we are most proud of our team of quality individuals we are surrounded by. Our message as a brokerage is Be More, Do More & Give More. Unlike others in our industry that tell their agents to “Take More” we are motived by “Give More”. The counter message we send attracts the best agents in the business from my perspective. We were previously named “Chief Properties” which didn’t quite have the impact we wanted in our community as a brokerage name. We decided to make the change to Local Agent for a number of reasons. It was impossible to create a new name and logo that communicated who we are concisely. We chose Local Agent because it emphasizes a very important aspect of our vision for our communities. Being Local, shopping Local and caring for the Local community is imperative to our local economy, the success of small businesses in our neighborhoods and the financial health of our public services. We want to continue the hard work that other community organizers and small businesses have already started while highlighting that every service you choose has an impact on your neighborhood, friend & family member. We are passionate about the need for every Kansas City Metro resident to support local farmers, businesses &/or services that promotes the financial health of our local economy. We encourage every potential customer to explore where their dollar goes when they make their purchase or pay for their services rendered. We have been under the influence of big companies & providers that take our hard earned dollars out of our local economy to support the CEO’s extreme wealth or an economy other than our own. You have the power to change that. If you don’t chose our locally owned and locally focused social enterprise, please choose another company that is. We are happy to provide a list of locally-owned real estate brokers in town with great reputations. Thank you for taking the time to learn about who we are as individuals first & then who we are as a real estate brokerage. Brands & logos mean nothing if you don’t have great people first. We are convinced we are the best local agents around. Local Agent LLC is a licensed Real Estate Brokerage. License MO #2020035311 KS
