Welcome To Exit Realty Clarksville, Sheila O!

Every thursday our office has their Team meeting and this past week was a very special one!

I would just like to take the time to welcome Sheila Oszczakiewicz, better known as Sheila O., to our office via the world wide web! We were all pleasantly surprised to see her walk through the doors with her grand introduction. I thought the President of the United States was going to come through those doors and when Sheila came through, my jaw dropped to my chest. I couldn’t believe it.

I asked her, after she stood up and told us about herself and how excited she was to be at our company, why did she choose Exit Realty Clarksville. Her answer just made me respect her even more. A lot of people do what they do for the money. If the money is the top objective, for me, it turns out to become an obsession and then the focus is on money and not relationships with your customers and clients. It will in turn show them what kind of person you are and your business will reflect your passion, which could come across as a negative. Some will argue that. That, that isn’t correct but it is for “ME”.  Sheila was offered a WEALTH of opportunites but is grounded in her passion for helping agents and her customers/clients, going were she feels led to and not being led by the almighty dollar.

Welcome to Exit Realty Clarksville, the number one brokerage in all of TN and KY for 2008! We look forward to all the training you have in mind and the chance to build a lasting relationship.

If you would like more information about our company and what we have to offer, please contact me and over a cup of coffee, my treat, I will share what makes Exit Realty Clarksville the best Real Estate company in TN. We are a family here and our communication and respect for each other shows.

Congratulations to Exit Realty Clarksville for receiving top honors as Brokerage of the Year 2008 for TN and KY!

February 17, 2009 all agents in TN and KY that are affiliated with Exit Realty came together for a day of training, provided by the Founder and CEO of Exit Realty Corp. International, Steve Morris.

A Tragic Loss In Our Community

Mr. Richard “Rich” Sims lost his life in a fatal motorcycle accident last night here in Clarksville.  His wife, a local Realtor, Judy, was on the back and is fighting for her life at this moment.

I met these two when I came to Exit Realty Clarksville back in 2006.  Such a genuine, kind and loving couple.  Rich loved his wife, Judy.  Anyone that saw them together knew they were matched just right for each other.  Rich was a middle school teacher for the 8th grade and Judy would do career day for her company.

Be Proactive, NOT Reactive

In all areas of our life, not just our job, we might find ourselves more reactive than proactive.  Being Proactive is getting things done before you have to react to the bad that comes from not doing it ahead of time. Normally it is bad things.

When we aren’t proactive we tend to look like we are lazy, don’t care or not very organized. Sometimes we can’t help it that we are reactive, especially Read the rest of this entry »

Are You In The Good Stack?

Recently, I was at a REALTOR ® meeting and it was said that many brokers from different companies were interviewed to find out what their pet peeves were with real estate agents.  In every work place you will find those certain actions that are just over bearing and maybe you don’t know how to address the “problems” with that agent or how to make them see the changes that need to take place in order for them to be successful.

Do you work in a market where you believe if agents would just do unto others as they would want done to them, it would produce a win-win environment?  If you are willing to take the first step, maybe, just maybe, you will start a trend to improve the working relationships in your area.

Below I am going to share with you the top pet peeves for brokers in our market area and then give some tips on what we can do to improve our job performance, thus removing added stress and anger from those agents who seem to work as if they are being attacked or can’t stand their job.

Real Estate Tomato

RET – Real Estate Tomato

One day while I was doing a “long-tail” search for Military Spouse prayer groups, I came across an article that was by a Realtor.  I was kind of shocked that out of all my searches for a prayer group I get a Real Estate website. “What the world” I am a Realtor, that wasn’t what I was looking for, but as I looked at this site I found something that I never ventured into….BLOGGING!

I thought this was the coolest thing ever, being so personal, and I hadn’t seen anything like it before.  I love things that are different, being out of the box, and Read the rest of this entry »
