Dare To Be Different

March 30, 2005

The real estate industry is changing. Consumers are empowered with information from the internet, are demanding more and want to know what they are paying for. The old models are breaking. Can we provide the services consumers want and need and get paid what they are worth? I think we can.

New business models are emerging almost daily. Many tend to believe our services can be turned into a commodity. And, in many cases, our professional image is threatened. We just haven't done a good job educating the public. Consumers are attracted to these cut rate models because they simply don't understand what we really do to earn our fees. If Wal Mart and Saks Fifth Avenue are the extremes, is there a Nordtroms model that makes more sense? I firmly believe there is and we have bet our entire business on it...

Consider:

National Association of REALTORS® A. D. Little Study: "Technology and the consumer will change the business model and execution of the real estate transaction. By 2005, real estate licensees will reframe themselves from salespeople to real estate consultants".

National Association of Real Estate Consultants® Consumer Study: "Most consumers still want expert representation...but are less willing to pay the traditional cost".

Join the revolution and get ahead of the curve. The National Association of Real Estate Consultants® offers programs that teach a different way of doing business. As C-CREC® ceritfied agents, Pam and I have first hand knowledge and experience that can help. We are building our entire business around delivering high quality, best in class real estate consulting services delivering significant value to our clients.
