My Projects
We are a commodity
I am an agent. I have always been a solid producer. I think I am pretty damn good at it. I have integrity I work diligently on my clients behalf. I have been involved in well over 100 transactions. I put my clients interests in front of mine. blah blah blah…I could go on and on why I am a great agent.
Guess what..if I quit tomorrow no one would care. There are hundreds if not thousands of agents in our area that are just as capable as I am that would have done a fine job with all of my past clients. Competent agents are a commodity. We don’t like to believe it but it’s true.
I realize I am painting us with a broad brush. There are many factors such as communication styles, area expertice, etc that go into whether an agent client relationship will work well. And there is a large population of agents who’ production is so low that they don’t have the experience to be a realy good agent. But I contend that above a certain level (experience, communication skills, work ethic, education,etc) we are all about the same and there are lots of us. We are a commodity with slightly different styles.
