Last week I mentioned that there had been a lot going on at NRVLiving Real Estate these past few weeks, and it's true - we were writing offers up to December 31st, so there was a lot to be done to prepare for closings scheduled in 2009. Adding to the craziness were my two trips out of town, back to back, to some amazing conferences that I've shared some about and hope to continue to do so throughout the year.
One big thing that's happened in 2009 is that the NRVLiving family has gotten a little smaller. Well ... a lot smaller. Aaron and Steve, who've been with me since 2006 and 2007, respectively, have struck out on their own. They both have great relationships throughout the community, and they're going to leverage those relationships even more than we have over the last couple of years. As far as I know they've decided to stick with the Coldwell Banker Townside family here in Blacksburg, but I wish them all the best moving forward! And I'd like to thank them both - for the enthusiasm and impeccable service they offered NRVLiving and our clients, and their patience in working with me!
Smaller isn't necessarily a negative, however, so if you're a past, present or future client don't be alarmed; in fact, I'm enthusiastic about the opportunities that are presenting themselves. Working on my own again in no way eliminates my commitment to streamlining the process of transacting real estate in the New River Valley, and I'm working on designing background systems that will continue that commitment with no interruption to you, the client.
As always, you are concentrating on your clients. Even though you are not operating as a team, I'm glad that you and Steve are still looking for even better ways (with Aaron's help of course) to provide the best service for your buyers and sellers. As GM of Coldwell Banker Townside, I'm lucky, we're lucky, to have the association of all of you. Best of luck in your separate ventures!

Concentrate for the clients is one of the main factor that we had to learn if we are choosing the best real estate. You have very informative blog thanks for sharing.
