Homes & Land has had the greatest single impact on my business in the last 18 months – more than any other form of advertisement. I routinely hear from buyers and sellers, “I see your name everywhere.” That means I am doing my job! I can’t guarantee to sell a client’s home, but I do guarantee that I will market it more extensively than any other agent and Homes & Land makes that possible! My clients appreciate the quality of the publication, the value in the Internet leads and they know that I am going the extra mile for them. When all things are equal, sellers will choose an agent based on fee. I make sure the service is not equal. My level of service far out-shines the rest and my clients not only see that, they take it to the bank! Thank You Homes & Land – you have made my job a little easier!Janet Cox, Charlotte, NCTop 100% Club Re/Max; Top Listing Agent in Lincoln County 2010; Top Selling Agent in Lincoln County 2010; Top Sales Agent Re/Max Crossroads 2010 | |

While you can close clients with this approach, it often results in resentment or cancellation of the deal later.Read More | |

“It’s easy to look at the success of top producers and think that a) their success happened overnight, and b) they never struggled. Both assumptions are incorrect. They are just as human as the next person in the desire for quick results. However, they never-ever wait around for them to just happen.”Michael Russer, a.k.a. Mr. Internet | |
