Denver real estate ~ Gamble Risk and reward

circling the drain I’ve been pondering a blog topic for awhile. It runs through my head, but so far not onto my blog. Then this morning I discover, someone else wrote it. Commission Bashing is about taking on risk and getting rewarded for it.

How many jobs take on as much risk as a Realtor? We help many more than we ever get paid for, but yet the world wants a piece of our hide. Charge too much? Maybe. The reality is I don’t get paid until there is a success.

Vicki Moore talks about discount agents who come and go. How true that is…twenty three years in the business, I’ve seen my share of those who want to light the world on fire only to burn themselves out after creating a mess for some poor cost conscientious consumer.

Real estate is not about what you do, it’s about what you know. We get paid for success. Bargain basement prices may deliver a sale, but at what cost to the consumer?

Time will tell.
