It’s Not All Fun and Games

Most of the time during the home buying or selling process, the public sees the real estate agent out in the field doing very little. Being viewed more as a tour guide than a professional is a stigma most agents have been saddled with at one time or another during their careers.

As a Realtor, I understand how difficult it can be to impress upon someone the actual workload undertaken to enjoy that “leisurely” stroll through a few properties. They rarely see us behind the scenes, and when they do we’re only there to pick up a check. –Well not anymore!

Here’s a brief look from my web cam while I’m hard at work researching and scheduling some property tours.

Did you notice how long it took me to get another cup of coffee?

I had to leave the room and everything! Now imagine having to that 8-12 times a day and you start to understand how difficult my job is.

I hope you enjoyed my little web cam spoof and, all kidding aside, I graciously ask that you give your real estate agent the respect that he or she has earned in your company. For the most part, we really do a lot for that commission…just ask us!
