Back in early 2021, I helped a family buy this home. It was only my third closing ever as a Realtor.
I was still figuring things out, learning every day, and working harder than ever. What I lacked in experience, I made up for with hustle, communication, and a genuine desire to do the right thing. Thankfully, they trusted me and were happy with the result.
Fast forward five years. Life changed, as it always does, and I was honored when they reached back out and asked me to help sell the home for them.
This time around felt a little different. With more than 90 closings under my belt, the process was smoother, the strategy was sharper, and the experience was there. The conversations felt natural; the game plan was clear, and I knew exactly how to help them reach their goals.
This closing is about more than just helping another family move on to their next chapter. It's also a reminder of how far I've come since those early days of learning on the fly and figuring things out one transaction at a time.
From day one, I never set out to be a salesman. I wanted to build a business built on relationships, trust, and doing good work for good people. Getting the opportunity to help clients a second time is one of the best reminders that approach is working.
This year I took another big step and launched the Hawbaker Home Team within Coldwell Banker Realty. The goal remains the same as it was on closing number three: keep learning, keep growing, and keep serving my clients at the highest level.
Cheers to growth, great clients, and whatever comes next. 🍻
