Great news!!!  Windward East 406 has closed for $300,000 after 3 years on the market.  Now that is perseverance!  After $25K in upgrades this will be a killer unit with great views.

We would like to welcome Celeste Van Ewyk as a new agent.  Celeste is working in the office for awhile until she learns more about the business.  We also have 2 couples who are in the process of taking the state test in order to join our company.

Unlike a lot of brokers I like new agents.  Especially the ones who really want to try to learn and help their clients, friends and family.  Some agents when they achieve a degree of success develop a huge ego.  I have actually heard agents say they will not allow their buyers to pay more than a certain price.  Now really,  that is not a agent's call to make especially on foreclosures.  We are now entering the market where multiple offers are common and sometimes the market will tick up and leave this agent behind.  Some buyers find the home that is just right for them and in that case the agent should show the buyer comps but the final say is for the buyer.

Stay thirsty my friends
