The Value of Referral: Relationships

As a Real Estate Agent, I look to provide value at any given time in the relationship between me, the agent, and you, my client. Real Estate is a relationship based industry, utilizing not only the cooperative nature of the business between agents - but also that of vendors used during the process of buying or selling a home. After a sale has happened, I will tell you to contact me if you, or someone you know has a question about Real Estate. This is called a Referral. But here, I am asking, what value do I have for your referrals? Why should you call me after the transaction?

1) Relationships Are More Valuable Than The Transactions

One can assign a certain value to a transaction, a single paycheck. But a good relationship with a client has so much more value than that. One of my favorite things to do is to see a client grow from a starter home to an investment home as they build wealth. Not only is it continued business, but growth of the client's life.

2) Balls In Your Court

In this game of basketball, I am being the best team player not only for this score but the next score and the next one. This is all a team effort, and I play to earn the right to slam dunk that basketball in your honor.

3) Perks Go Beyond The Sale

There are many things that I can assist with after the sale, for example - should you need a recommendation for business professional as you deal with home owner things (repairs, tax advisors, etc) I am happy to assist. Or maybe you now have a pool and need a good recommendation to maintain it. Otherwise, it is my job to stay up to date on the market and the value of real estate - I would be happy to meet up for a coffee and keep you up to date.

Whether you get your referrals from your friends or the internet, I would love to earn you and yours referrals. Contact me any time you have questions, comments, or concerns!

Why Real Estate is Such a Good (Great) Investment: Part 2-Rent it

This is the next installment of a 7 part series exploring ideas of why real estate is such a good investment. The focus will be on single family and multifamily real estate, but a good idea is a good idea, enjoy.  Today we are exploring using real estate as a rental property. It is the most common use for investment residential real estate, the first question is whether to go with short-term rentals, or long term (fixed term) rentals. For short-term rentals (Airbnb or similar), first make sure about city ordinances, for example,  City of Anaheim  has extremely restrictive rules relating to short term rentals. The rules can be many, burdensome and ever-updating, in fact, I would not recommend doing short term rentals in Anaheim at all. In addition to cities, HOAs (Homeowner's Associations) are common in areas that have high Airbnb demand, and  they have not been friendly to it either . Secondly, please note that short-term rentals have the primary com...

Why Real Estate is Such a Good (Great) Investment: Part 5-(Can we) Build it (yes we can!)

This is the next installment of a 7 part series exploring ideas of why real estate is such a good investment. The focus will be on single family and multifamily real estate, but a good idea is a good idea, enjoy.  Building is a straightforward way to add value. There are really two classifications of it. Either remodeling or constructing. In terms of remodeling, as mentioned in a prior post, it is important to find a 'quarterback' that knows what and who to ask. Improvements should be thought of in terms of how much value it will bring, it has been said that kitchen and bathrooms are the highest return on investment. https://www.remodeling.hw.net   has a very good annual report ( linked here for Los Angeles, see last page ), some highlights is that a MINOR kitchen remodel returns 105% of the money put in. Other things include the expected, Grand Entrance (108.1%), Garage Door (123.8%) and perhaps unexpected, Deck Addition, wood (98.8%), Windows, double pane (102.6%)New ...

Why Real Estate is Such a Good (Great) Investment: Part 7-Legacy

This is the last installment of a 7 part series exploring ideas of why real estate is such a good investment. The focus will be on single family and multifamily real estate, but a good idea is a good idea, enjoy.  Over the last two centuries, about  90 percent of the world’s millionaires  have been created by investing in real estate. This has created incredible 'political cover' to be a part of that 'millionaire's club'. What I mean is that, so many people have come to rely on real estate for their past and present fortunes, that it is unlikely major legislation would change its tax-advantaged, and political-advantaged position. Today will be a much more abstract topic, it relates to legacies, dynasties and how your blogger sees the world. What defined the  Middle Ages was land . What defined a noble was being a land-lord (as they still are). It is my, possibly unpopular, belief that our country may be on the tail end, or just past the  Pax Americana , a...
