Real Estate Service Agent

Q. Describe three recent jobs you've completed.

A. I recently sold my most distant property from my residence, a single family home in Baldwin Hills. While it may be argued that it was a totally different market, I still reseached and obtained the specific information the homebuyer needed such as neighborhood disposition and HOA by doing neighborhood research. Whatever I do not know...I will find because I am serious about my work. I know this is only one but it is a milestone.
I could also talk about the condo I sold in Pico Rivera to someone. It was a turbulent escrow, but she to this day has become a good friend and I continue to servr her this year as someone preparing her income taxes, since I am a registered tax preparer.

Q. What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

A. Choose a provider that will regularly follow up. Choose a provide that promptly returns phone calls. Choose a provide that will take the time to find you the right property ccording to YOUR needs, not the need for their comission.

Q. What do you like most about your job?

A. Every client is different and that is what makes it interesting. Clients become extended family. Each escrow completed is a success story for you and me.

Q. How did you decide to get in your line of work?

A. It started 7 years ago at the height of the market when me and my ex girlfirend wanted to buy and we could not afford it on my then current salary. I then found out that although that goal was never reached, I loved the personal attention that I could give each prospect the came my way. I like being directly responsible for the success of running a business. I enjoyed the diveresity of my clientele because no two clients are the same; each has a new story to tell. It is stimulating becuase this career is indeed dymanic.

Q. If you were advising someone who wanted to get into your profession, what would you suggest?

A. You need patience really. Do not expect to get rich quick. Be a Realtor instead because you enjoy helping different people with diverse needs. Expect to spend some money getting going and experiencing disappointment. Surround yourself with veterans because the will encourage you when you need it the most. You will indeed earn every penny of that commission check.
