I guess I kind of expected it.
When I decided to sell the assets of my RE/MAX Realty Group office in Gales Ferry and stay on as an agent at the new RE/MAX Realty Group, I knew to anticipate the rumors. Fortunately, blogging gives me the opportunity to clear up a few things so here goes....
To my competition:
1. I am not closing my office because business sucks. I'm doing quite fine, but thank you for your obvious concern.
2. No, I'm not interested in multi-level marketing no matter how much better you think my life will be. Your emails go in my spam folder and I won't be returning yours calls.
3. I AM NOT "RETIRING" and you know it. Knock it off, OK?
4. I am not "going on the speaking circuit". (that's my favorite so far and I kind of like the idea so please email if you have a gig for me)
Here's the scoop: After 31 years, I've decided I love listing and selling real estate more than unjamming copy machines and taking out the garbage. I plan to sell a lot of real estate over the next few years. In addition, with the elimination of the burden of broker ownership, I plan to golf more, blog more and share more of what I've learned. It doesn't get any better than that! You can read more about my plans in my previous post about my move to a home office.
So...if you hear any more crap about me, please refer to numbers 1 through 4 above and then just call and ask.
