That is why you want me on your side!! Those two statements might have seemed like trouble when we were 4 but now as adults they are very important. In the business world today you need someone that is willing to be BOLD and BUCK the norm.

When you are buying, selling or investing in real estate you need a professional that will think
outside the box – sort of like coloring outside the lines. A little bold, a little daring.

If a real estate professional stays with in the “comfort” of the business, follows the “pack” and does exactly what all the others do how does that give you an edge? Why would you want this person on your team? I would rather have a REBEL as my team leader than a Mr. Conventional.
Do you want a professional whose attitude is to try anything at least once? A professional that is willing and almost possessed with doing things “outside the lines”?
The REBEL Buyer’s Agent (RBA)
- Shows “for sale by owner property” (shows they are not afraid to negotiate)
- Helps you devise a negotiating strategy.
- Always performs a CMA on property you are interested in making an offer on
- Calls property owners in an area you are interested in to see if they want to sell
- Ask you to make your offer contingent on their presentation in person to the seller
- Place “property wanted” ads on your behave
The REBEL Seller’s Agent (SBA)
- Publish a brochure for YOU to hand out to your sphere
- Create a personal web page just for your property
- Host a party – not an open house, not a brokers open, a real party to include sending out of invitations – and “e-vites”, provide fun/trendy hors d’oeuvres / appetizers, provide some type of entertainment like a hypnotist.
- Research the history / uniqueness about the home and try and get the local media interested
- Create a “home blog” this is the “new age” home book.
See these are all “out of the lines” “running with scissors” ideas. They take a professional that isn’t afraid to be talked about, isn’t afraid to do new things, isn’t afraid of “peer pressure” because in the long run – who the heck cares what the other professionals think, it’s not about them it’s about YOU the all important customer.
Call me up and I will come jump on beds, or run thru sprinklers, or slide down tubes to help you achieve your Real Estate Goals – no kidding, Just ask!!






Brilliant angle, and similar to what I have been doing but so much more succinctly put! And I am so glad you run with scissors but don’t eat paste! But, man, I’d love to pick your brain over some coffee! So nice to stumble across your blog! Adding you to my blogroll and love to netowork with you!
