Agent/Broker Caravans

Today, after the Sacramento Association of Realtors Regional meeting, my wife & I participated in theAgent/Broker Caravan. This is chance to allow us to show our listings to our peers as well as a chance to see their listings. We get to see the competition and we get a chance to get some valuable feedback to give back to our clients.

Although it might sound obvious, actually seeing properties is one of the most valuable things we can do as agents. Sure, we can see so much on line these days but nothing replicates the in person experience. And in the caravan environment we see the properties in a different light than we would if we were out showing a client. We can see the homes on our own terms and get feedback for ourselves as well as our clients. When Kim & I aren't busy we often pick an area and go look at homes to keep us sharp. But living as husband and wife, our tastes are usually quite similiar (except she doesn't like sports, kraft macoroni & cheese, nor the 3 Stooges . . . why oh why did we ever get married), so it is refreshing to get other opinions from other agents.

So, when you decide to get us to list your home to sell, we will get it on an agent/broker caravan regardless of where you live!
