The spring market always has people talking more about real estate, especially this one. Having been in the business for over 30 years, I have seen a lot of market shifts, and all the ups and downs that come with them. I may be getting older and more emotional, but I’ve really been reflecting on all my transactions, my clients, my colleagues and the different broker’s I’ve worked for. What has always been so important to me is holding myself and my business practice to a high standard, not only because I know doing good is always what’s right, but also to give my clients everything they deserve. To me integrity is everything. In markets with limited inventory, more competition, it can make things very difficult for buyers, and I don’t blame them for becoming exhausted and frustrated. Our job as agents is to provide guidance and strength, and to be effective and sympathetic, unfortunately I continue to see poor behavior. There is no reason ever for a lack of empathy, kindness and professionalism especially for what I do on a daily basis.

I can’t control all that happens in the real estate business, and some of the unethical practices. But the one thing I can promise my clients is that I will always do the right thing, no matter what it takes, and I will always take the high road- it’s a lot less crowded and the views are always better!
