One thing I've written about in the past is how much I like the fact that every different kind of personality can not only survive in this business...but thrive. The reason that so many various personality types can make it in this business is that ultimately it's a people business. Clients are as varied as agents with some experiences certainly better than others.
And lately I've just been plain lucky. For whatever reason every client I've worked with lately has been great and as I've seemed to tell most of them lately...it's a real bonus when you like the person or people that you're working with. That isn't to say that every escrow lately has been great....but the people have.
It's sort of a cliche in real estate to say that the best part is helping people find a great home, but it really is and it makes it that much better when they're good people. I've recently helped a young couple with their first home, helped some "empty nesters" downsize, and helped several couples and families with short sale situation who have found themselves in a difficult situation. Whether it's something I'm doing or just dumb luck....it sure is nice to like what you do, and help some great people along the way.
