It’s pretty obvious that helping buyers in this market is tough work. As buyer agents, it can take writing five offers just to get one accepted. That’s a lot more caffeine than normal to get a house under contract.
On the flip side, one might think listing agents are having all the fun. After all, homes are selling quickly, with no contingencies, and often for more than list price.
However, most people don’t realize how hard it is to actually get a listing. Did you know there are five times more agents than homes for sale?
So when the competition gets tough, the tough get coffee, and I’ve become pretty particular about making coffee. Selecting beans, grinding them and choosing the appropriate method for the perfect brew is a zen-like ritual. It requires precise measurements and timing to get everything just right. It’s this same mindset that keeps our clients happy and helps us stay competitive in a crowded market.
So when my friend Peter asked, “what’s the best way to make coffee?” I couldn’t wait to have him over. We sampled all my favorite brew methods. He loved the Moka Pot and AeroPress.
This hobby started when I began working from home. For me, the issue was where to get my coffee, if not from the office? That’s how my new hobby began. Are you looking for new ways to enjoy your morning brew? Let me know, I would be delighted to have you over, too.
