\f0\fs32 \cf0 Hey, Jim Duncan with \cf2 \ul \ulc2 www.realcentralva.com\cf0 \ulnone and
Nest Realty here in Charlottesville, Virginia thinking about a common theme that I've heard
from my new prospective clients recently and it's a feeling of overwhelmed. A lot of people
are overwhelmed with the amount of information that's out there about the real estate process
whether it's buying a home, selling a home, looking for a home, just getting started.
\ \
There is such an extraordinary amount of information on the Internet that filtering through it
and finding the accurate, the good, the relevant information can be an extraordinary challenge.
God knows I would be if I didn't have a process in place to delve into the information on
a daily basis. \ \
Personally I read or skim 200 some local Charlottesville blogs and 150 real estate blogs and between
ten and 20 economics blogs on a daily or every other day basis so I have become accustomed
to processing this type of information in a rapid and hopefully effective way. So I
see part of my job as representing my clients, marketing homes, showing homes, etc., but
a lot of it is also answering questions about the process. How do I buy a home? What questions
should I have? What questions do I not know that I should be asking, etc. etc. \
\ Today's realtor is as much a client representative
as somebody who deciphers and puts information about the home buying process, about the local
politics, about the land use policies and growth policies into context that matters.
Every year as I look at more information and process more information, I think that's really
the key; putting information into the context that matters for clients. \
\ It's something I think I'm pretty good at,
I enjoy, and I'm really passionate about educating people, but I always like the opportunity
to learn from my buyer clients what they're reading and what question they have because
there's new information every day and I'm always looking to learn. \
\ If you have any questions, please give me
a call. Jim Duncan, (434) 242-7140 or online anywhere, \cf2 \ul \ulc2 www.realcentralva.com\cf0
\ulnone Have a good day. \ }
