There’s always something to howl about.

Not All Dinosaurs Are Extinct

I know an agent with big hair – she used to drive a Cadillac – she traded it in for a Lexus.

She likes to lunch – alot – with friends, clients and colleagues.  She started selling real estate when I started high school – basically ALONG time ago.

She’s not on Facebook.  She twitters only in the office – face to face – with friends, clients and colleagues.  She’s not on MySpace – Her space is the desk in the office – overwhelmed with a prodigous Rolodex with cards falling out.  She emails, but her assistant does the typing.  Funny thing is – she seems to always be on the phone.  Talking.  Offering well-wishes on birthdays, engagements, job promotions, new children arrivals and even new grandchildren arrivals.

I think she may be working on the third generation of her first clients.

I’ve never heard her ask for business – often times the phone calls are incoming, not outgoing.  She’s busy, but not overwhelmed.  During a casual conversation regarding a recent property showing, she shared some very valuable insight regarding the unit – you see, she’s sold it twice before.

When she tells me she knows everyone in the business, I believe her.

She’s social – but not of the media type.

In comparison, I believe I am more social, but perhaps too much of the media type.  I like technology.  I believe that technology can and will transform how real estate is transacted.  Through observation, however, I have learned that even in the absence of technology, real estate is transacted – quite successfully.
