I've heard it said, to be a lawyer or doctor is to commit yourself to a lifelong practice of the craft. Doctors practice medicine. Lawyers practice law. Scientists practice science. But I was thinking, I’ve never heard it said that Realtors practice real estate. Why is that? Here’s my theory. 87% of realtors quit after 5 years. Most only sell 5-6 homes per year. So in reality, many real estate agents don’t ever really give themselves a chance to “practice real estate.”
It’s not a knock on anyone, it’s just the truth.
Practice: verb, “to do over and over so as to become skilled”
But just like every legal case or human body is unique and needs individualized expertise, so too is every homebuyer or family’s situation. No wonder people don’t trust Realtors who always say, “It’s a great time to buy OR sell!” Would you feel like you can trust a doctor who gave everyone the same advice, regardless of their situation?
I want a doctor who knows me, knows my body, will be straight with me, and give me honest advice.
For my craft, it’s why I help homebuyers not just answer the key question, “Can I buy this home?” but also, “SHOULD I buy this home?” I help families answer the right questions, so they can make the best decision for their future.
When I started real estate, I didn't think I'd be serving so many families every year. I've dedicated myself to practicing my craft and providing individualized expertise to every family or client who trusts me to serve them. Outside of being a wife and mother, there’s literally nothing else I’d like to give my life to practicing other than real estate!
