Lynn was an amazing educator who dedicated so much of her time and talents to pushing our Industry forward. I had the pleasure of collaborating with her several times and she was a total PRO and a friend!

It is with great sadness that we join the REALTOR® family in mourning the passing of respected real estate industry leader and educator Lynn Madison.

Lynn educated thousands of real estate professionals in Illinois through the classes she conducted at the Illinois School of Real Estate and Illinois REALTORS® conferences. Her impact extended far beyond Illinois, leaving an indelible mark on real estate professionals in more than 29 states through her classes and presentations at NAR conferences.

Along with the entire real estate community, we extend our deepest condolences to Lynn’s family, friends and colleagues. She will be deeply missed.

If you're an agent whose company/team doesn't spend a substantial time each week talking collectively about what the market is telling us - at a macro level - you are likely running into issues on both sides of the ball right now - both in pricing properties effectively - and in crafting offers that win. We owe it to EVERY client to have the confidence to tell them that they're pricing strategy has been outdated by the current market shift - and then help to guide them with data that we understand.

Aggregating the information to help us read the market, giving it back to our agents in ways they can leverage to assist their clients - and discussing the results happens every Tuesday at 10am at JimMaloof/JimMaloof/REALTOR.

The skills, experience and backgrounds that new agents bring to the table never ceases to amaze me! They materialize one day - we talk, realize that we're a good match - and then they step in and change the fabric of our company - for the better! It's impossible to not want to pour in all of the support and encouragement we can to help them succeed and realize their dreams. We're so honored they chose JimMaloof/REALTOR!

I 💚 New Agents!
And these two have hit the ground running in a huge way.
And I take no credit for it...they're both incredibly hard-working professionals! But it sure is amazing to be affiliated with them - and I look forward to helping them grow and serve their clients!

Success Tip:
Stop setting your goals around outcomes. Set them around the activities that lead to those outcomes and focus on consistency. Easier to track and more opportunity for frequent celebration! 💚
