There’s one story that I really like that happened a few months ago. I was taking a
trip to Miami so I was on the airplane and while I was walking into the airplane I ended
up speaking to this woman who was also on my flight. So we just had a few minutes to
chat. But she was really nice and she said that I looked like I was around her daughter’s
age. So we started chatting and so she asked me what I do in new York and I told her that
I work for Cochrane, I do residential real estate and she was so excited because she
said oh my god, that’s perfect. My daughter’s going to be looking for an apartment. I said
here’s my card, I gave her my business card and then we went our separate ways, went on
our trips and then a few weeks later I got a call from her daughter who turned out to
be very lovely and I helped her find this great apartment on 12th Street but in the
process we’ve become really great friends. So I think it’s so special that in real
estate travel leads to meeting really great people which leads to business and that can
result in a lasting friendship.
