Change Of Direction

After My First Year On Steemit


I spend one full year on Steemit creating content, networking in discord, investing in steem, learning new skills and attending Steemfest3 Mmy conclusion was to spend my time focusing elsewhere for my second year. It was not an easy decision to make but it was necessary. I am still hopeful that steem will be a success but I am going to have to step aside for the time being to earn money. I have built many relationships with people through Steemit and will keep involved enough to stay in contact and hope to return to creating content when my time allows this to happen and will probably be changing the type of content I create by staying focused on real estate and generating content in this realm when possible. It's a big change for me but I feel good about my decision and today I closed escrow on a buyer purchase so it's an indication that I am moving in a good direction.

Today I am going over and beyond my duties by helping my client move some furniture and personal items into his new condo located in The Willmore, built in 1925. I feel this is a personal touch that not many Realtors will do, I am doing this out of appreciation and will not see my clients as mere commission checks but as people starting new lives in new properties and doing everything I can to make it a pleasurable experience. Sometime a change in direction or perspective is necessary to make positive changes in life and this is exactly what I am doing for myself and my clients.
This is a very exciting time for me and I am currently working with 6 buyers and 1 seller on listing a really nice house. My take away on this is no matter where you focus your energy in life, give it 100% and if you succeed or fail you know you did everything in your power to make it happen.

Great work man. You go the long way for clients and word gets around :).

I think so too brother, I went to my storage last night after work at 10pm and emptied all the crap out of the back of my truck to make it happen. My client and I grabbed a few beers and made a toast on the roof top deck to his new life. It was a lot of fun for sure. Can’t wait for this to happen over and over again

You rock brother! Selling my house as a for sale by owner right now. Got any suggestions or tips?

Fsbo is tough. If it’s not on the mls than agents that would make money by selling it never show it. A ready, willing able buyer never gets a chance to see it and this is not good. Pricing it right for the market with a comparative market analysis is the first thing I do, than good marketing and exposure and lots of open houses. If the value is there and the price point is right it should sell, but with fsbo many times the missing element is the buyers agent that will show it is part you need

@vladivostok, good luck in your new undertaking! But, will you come to SF4?

Thank you very much, now of course Steemfest3 was the best part of the whole year and I would love to get to go to #4, this is not out of the question but will depend on what I have going on at the time. I wonder where it will be...
I have not told my wife that I am not here much anymore although she notices, this will hopefully allow me another solo journey, that's the hopes.

Good evening, sir. Oh my, it has been more than a year already! It’s Alex writing with warmest wishes of best health and prosperity! Доброго здоровья, дорогой друг!

Wrote you an email to mail.ru account if it is still valid. Just curious how you’ve been. Best regards to Victoria.

P.s. seems like its no longer Russian Far East in your window, am I right?

Буду рад новостям!
All the best
Alex

Good to hear from you man, I replied to the email,
It’s still good. Let’s catch up for sure!!

Wow! Very nice! Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Good luck with your new direction!
You are doing very well in deed, perhaps with the help of Romeo!

All the best!
