When a person becomes a new agent there are so many things to consider. Number one is...Why did you choose real estate? If the answer is an easy job where you make lots of money, you're definately looking at the wrong career. While you certainly can make a great living in real estate the reality is 10 percent of licensed agents do over 90 percent of the transactions out there. Why? One of the main reasons is they decided on a career in real estate because they enjoy people and Architecture and are self motivated. You cannot succeed in real estate without genuinely being a people person and loving what you do. It's much more work than just getting up in the morning and going to a regular job with a steady paycheck. Unfortunately a lot of Realtors lose sight of the fact that we are in are people business and not just a sales business. My advice as a successful broker for 16 years now is Take care of your clients first, never let the transaction get personal, and above all have fun and enjoy what you do!

True story

Here's a great tip for anyone looking to sell their home. If a company offers to buy your home and take the "Hassle" out of the process, and offers to close quickly this is the translation. They will most certainly buy your house and close it quickly, IF, you are willing to give it too them for at or below wholesale. This means that if you have a home that is worth $200,000.00 according to the comparables in your area, they will say YES we will give you $200,000.00 for your home,BUT WAIT, we have to deduct a 6 percent commission at $12,000.00, then we have to deduct for 3 percent in closing fees at another $6,000.00, then we of course have our fee of 1 percent at $2,000.00 and of course your home needs a lot of work so we will deduct another $20,000.00 for that to make it fair for us to purchase it. What are you left with? $160,000.00 BUT remember it closed quick with no hassle. Everyone please remember there is NO shortcut to selling your home unless you are willing to give up a great deal of your hard earned equity. The figures I just gave you are from an ACTUAL contract offer to purchase a home in the Phoenix Area. Give us a call at Decker and Associates to get what is FAIR for your home.

At Decker and Associates, we do not believe in reinventing the wheel when it comes to real estate. To us, it is not about our egos, or what we want but what our clients want.

One of my amazing agents brought to my attention something that's a little alarming. There's a company with the initials O.D. out there selling real estate. It allows pretty much anyone to access homes they have listed. As you go up to the door you have to look into a camera and it takes your picture (without consent) then the home is wired with cameras to make sure its safe as strangers walk through your home. (Of course Cameras ALWAYS work to deter criminals right?). In my opinion this practice is unsafe for the homeowner and irresponsible on the part of the agents, Not to mention a lazy way for them to sell homes. You MUST engage with people in order to assist them in buying or selling. I've said it many times to my agents as well as others. We are in a PEOPLE business. This is the one business that will not and cannot be replaced by cameras or computers.
