Business

Its only Wed and already I can say that this is a good week for real estate!

Friday afternoon I showed several homes to a very interested couple and on Mon I wrote up an offer for them. That's contract #1 this week, and #9 since I started in April.

Then yesterday a couple with whom I've been working for about 2 weeks now came into the office and we wrote up an offer for them on a home I showed them twice. That's contract #2 this week, and #10 since I started in April.

This afternoon I completed the negotiations on both offers which were accepted!

Since I started working in real estate (here in a beach community) in the spring/summer I assumed that business would slow down dramatically after the beach season ended. Fortunately I was wrong and business continues to be good for me. I still have several other clients with whom I'm working and who may purchase within the next few weeks/months.

I feel like I really made the right decision when I changed careers. It required a huge leap of faith (not to mention giving up the security of a regular paycheck) to do this, but it seems to be working out well.
