When I was in elementary school, my dad and I loved going to open houses. We\u2019d spend our weekends just looking around, having fun and daydreaming. That experience always stuck with me and really resurfaced when I was 23. I had just gotten married and wasn\u2019t quite sure what I wanted to do with my life, so I started slowly chipping away at my clock hours. I got my license at the beginning of 2007 and started my career with John L. Scott. That was a great training ground for me, but once I was standing on my own two feet I wanted to go somewhere that offered more commission. I was at Skyline Properties for about eight years, then was head hunted by a group of top agents who started The Agency Northwest. They really allowed me to branch out and do things my own way.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Why did you decide to join Redfin?\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Real estate is a feast or famine business, and I\u2019ve experienced many ups and downs throughout my career. After 18 years of riding that rollercoaster, I got tired of it. I was getting burnt out and losing my passion a bit, and I knew something had to change. I started looking at Redfin since I had been a partner agent many years ago. They were just rolling out <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.redfin.com\/next\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Redfin Next<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and that intrigued me. I have a big sphere of influence, and I liked the idea of making more on those deals while not having to pay for leads.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>How has joining Redfin changed the way you work?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s been absolutely night and day. I\u2019ve always done every aspect of the job from start to finish\u2014I\u2019ve never had a transaction coordinator, never had showing agents, everything has always been on my shoulders. The first month I was a little leery of using everything Redfin had to offer because I&#8217;ve had that control for so long. I kept thinking, \u201cdo they really know what they\u2019re doing?\u201d But once I saw how my transaction coordinator, Lexi, was handling everything I knew I was in good hands. I was finally able to take this breath of fresh air and feel renewed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Working with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=oKkrCR7m-gE\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Redfin\u2019s technology <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">has been a big change for me too, and I\u2019m hooked. I\u2019m doing a lot more volume than I did on my own, so it\u2019s been great to keep my entire customer list organized in a CRM that\u2019s easy to use. Agent Tools can tell you \u201cOh, you haven\u2019t checked up on this client in a while, you should send them a proactive email. Also, here\u2019s a map of all the homes you\u2019re about to tour, and here\u2019s all the forms you\u2019ll need.\u201d My job has always been to focus on relationships\u2014to meet clients, gain their trust, and to provide great service. It\u2019s just so much easier to do it all with Redfin.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What would you say to an agent who was thinking about joining Redfin?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I get this question a lot, not only from clients and agents but from family and friends who wonder why I moved over. To be honest, I had a negative bias toward Redfin for a lot of my career. In my area, they were always winning listings and doing so many more transactions. I didn\u2019t really understand it being on the other side. When I got to see the products they offer their clients up close, and how easy Redfin is to use, it was a no brainer. I regret not joining Redfin earlier. It\u2019s a fantastic product and an incredible value to my clients. Now when I\u2019m working with my sphere clients, they can see how much they\u2019re saving compared to when I was at other brokerages.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Redfin is looking for ambitious, mission-driven agents and managers to join our team nationwide.
