There are so many things I love about my job. I love the people I meet, I love the homes that I help to buy and sell, I love that everyday is different. One of the things that I enjoy the most is solving a challenge. I love to be in the mindset that I don't have to do it the way everyone else does. It's great to think outside the box and find a solution that's never been done.
I once had a property that was beyond equisite. I work and live in Los Angeles, we deal in trophy properties on a daily basis, but this was an estate that literally had no comparison. So how do you set a price when there are no comps? I decided to host a pricing party. I invited the 100 top agents in the area to an open house/pricing party. It was fabulous fun. The estate sold quickly with multiple bids and holds the record for the highest closing price in the area- ever. Deliciously the price was magnificently over what several other agents had suggested when offering their services to my client. My client was thrilled and so was I. Thinking outside the box has its rewards!
