For your big Investment call the Big Guns (RE/MAX)

We are proud that most consumers in Canada choose a RE/MAX agent to help them with what is (usually) their biggest lifetime investment.  In any market - but especially an uncertain one, consumers overwhelmingly choose professionals they can trust, and that they know will help them negotiate top dollar when selling their home, OR negotiate the best price when purchasing a home.  Our competition bureau ensures that Canadian consumers will always be exposed to plenty of home selling options; from 'For Sale By Owner' to choosing to do some of the work yourself - to pay a lesser rate of commission.  After comparing the many options, consumers still contact RE/MAX for results.  After all - saving  $$ on a commission fee but leaving twice $$ at the negotiating table when an offer comes doesn't make sense. 

Here's a clip illustrating public awareness of what RE/MAX stands for;

RE/MAX chay is thrilled to launch 24/7 Open Houses on all of our listings!

Fair to say that there aren't many people these days who don't know what an 'app' is...

Our RE/MAX chay agents and our consumers have enthusiastically embraced the benefits of Iphones, Blackberrys, Androids and the like -especially as they apply to the real estate industry.  With this in mind, RE/MAX chay has decided to lead the way!  We've attached a consumer friendly 'text for property info' app to our company listing data, thereby giving our clients a marketing edge.

RE/MAX Sellers now have their home's best features showcased - and our RE/MAX Buyers are able to access information and pictures of the RE/MAX homes that interest them 24 hours a day.  So easy to use -Simply text the word 'property' to 65656.  From the welcome screen, by inputing the property address #  the consumer can view photos and features of RE/MAX chay homes for sale 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Below, is a link that demonstrates just how easily all RE/MAX chay listing are now being displayed!

What's the 'shelf life' of your New Year's Resolutions?

Well my friends, we are through January and although I'm not a fan of the 'resolutions beginning January 1st' program, I have to admit that many of us (myself included) tend to reflect on the past year as it winds down - take stock and (perhaps) look at ways to improve our coming year.  Self improvement is always a good thing so long as the 'progress not perfection' motto hangs in the periphery - after all, we are human.

I came across the following blog from Richard Robbins and I felt it was a good crossection of small ways to improve on what you may have already created in your business and life.  His 'menu' allows you to focus on what rings true for you personally.

I think that rather than attack this list, as a new year resolution, it should be revisited periodically throughout the year.  Too much pressure comes with trying to perfect a complete overhaul.  Give yourself some credit for what you've already accomplished and integrate these ideas at a comfortable pace.  As with everything in life, don't forget to enjoy the journey :)
