a business update

Yesterday, I sent this update to my "sphere of influence" via e-mail...it seemed worthy of republishing here... :)

Business has kept me active but, within the past 2 months, 4 of my clients have experienced some re-direction in their lives (mostly first-time homebuyers now leaving to move out-of-state), meaning that 1.5 million of business that I was working on has now gone another direction. Ultimately, this is fine, because I genuinely care more about helping my clients determine and act on what is in their best interests than I care about my bottom line. In truth, a “swing” like this is normal for the industry, and the fact that in a 2-month period I was working on such a large volume in potential transactions (not even counting my executed transactions) is an impressive testament to the market-share that I have earned over the past 2 years, which, in turn, is a testament to God’s grace and to the high quality of service and professionalism that I bring to my career. All this is to say once again that I have the highest gratitude towards everyone who has (and who continues to) spread the word about me to their loved ones, friends, neighbors, and co-workers, and please don’t forget about me the next time someone you know simply mentions that they are about to begin the process of buying and/or selling a home in Maryland!

Thanks,
Greg
