A VERY NEW EXPERIENCE...REALTOR ADVANCED TRAINING

A VERY NEW EXPERIENCE!

Chapter 1   Downsizing 101

My Husband as a Client

Relax, he is not moving out…Forty-six years of wedding bliss, only 2 homes, and many years of training!  He is so romantic!  He has told me several times that the reason I am still around, is that he dislikes change.

Just Introducing the Idea

Educating him…seeing is believing!  As I see the joy and freedom my clients have after downsizing, I decided to introduce George to his first possible downsizing option.  Of course I have sold amazing properties and clients are happy at the end of the process but now I am looking with different eyes.  As I am walking through with George, we are talking about where we would arrange our furnishings, which rooms would be our favorite or would be similar to our current favorite spots…so different as trying to personalize each amenity or feature.  Not as easy as it seems!

Personal Experience is Valuable Training

Even though I have helped my mother, friends, and clients downsize and consider myself to be not only knowledgeable but also sensitive, caring, and service oriented, this recent experience with George was eye opening.
