Throwback Thursday! š® the girls and I helping to clean up the highway to Hardy Lake.
You probably wonāt find me making a lot of funny reels, jumping on every social media trend, or hosting one event after another. And thereās a reason for that. ā¤ļø
Heck, sometimes Iām doing good just to get a walkthrough video posted of a home Iām selling! š
Itās not because I donāt enjoy having fun or connecting with people. I absolutely do! Itās because, quite frankly, Iām busy working IN real estate, not just creating content ABOUT real estate.
Thereās a whole lot more to being a Realtor than what you see on social media.
My days are filled with showing properties, researching homes and neighborhoods, preparing market analyses, marketing listings, negotiating contracts, handling paperwork, communicating with lenders and title companies, and making sure that once a home goes under contract, every T is crossed and every I is dotted.
And thatās just part of it!
Iām also the Realtor who rolls up her sleeves and helps clients get their homes ready to list. The one who doesnāt mind getting her hands dirty, helping with projects, or finding solutions when something needs to be done.
And my involvement doesnāt necessarily end at the closing table, either. Iāve spent countless hours helping clients after theyāve purchased their homes, because to me, those relationships are about so much more than a transaction.
Outside of real estate, I dedicate time to volunteering and working alongside community leaders and organizations that are making a difference for families, children, those struggling financially, and animals in need. I believe in being part of the work that makes our communities better, not just talking about it.
I also have my faith, my church, my family, my journalism work, and a life outside of social media.
And somewhere in there, I still make time for continuing education because I believe my clients deserve someone who never stops learning.
So, will you occasionally see me doing something funny, posting a silly video, or participating in a fun community event? Absolutely!
But will you see me constantly creating content just to stay visible or entertaining?
Probably not.
Not because thereās anything wrong with those things. There isnāt! We all have different personalities, strengths, and ways of running our businesses.
But Iāve made a conscious decision about where I want to invest the majority of my time and energy.
Iād rather spend an extra hour researching a property for my buyer, preparing a home for the market, negotiating for my clients, or helping someone through a difficult situation than spend that hour trying to create the next viral reel.
Because at the end of the day, my goal isnāt to become a social media personality.
My goal is to be an exceptional Realtor.
One who works hard, shows up, follows through, goes above and beyond, and genuinely cares about the people who trust me with one of the biggest financial decisions of their lives.
I may not always be the Realtor you see the most on your newsfeed.
But when you need me, I want to be the Realtor you can count on. ā¤ļø
