It's been a while since I've posted... Busy couple of weeks. To improve my service to my clients, I've recently hired a non-licensed assistant/client care manager, named Terri Tracey. She has had a great deal of experience working in an office setting, and dealing with the public. Terri and I look forward to working together to continue to bring high quality service to all of our clients.
In addition to that, last week, I attended the Real Estate Update course. As REALTORS®, we take this course every two years to make sure that we are all staying current on what is happening in our industry. Not only is it informative, it is a great way to touch base with other REALTORS® in the community, with whom I work on a daily basis. One thing I really enjoy about working in Simcoe County, is that it is a fairly small community (as compared to the GTA). We get to work with great colleagues from all of the different offices around the area.
Then, on Friday, I attended another seminar, to again further my knowledge in building systems into the way I work. By having outlined systems, we are then able to ensure that every step is taken care of for each client - nothing gets missed. By doing this, I'm then able to concentrate on each client's unique needs.
That, along with client matters has kept me very busy.
In relation to actual Real Estate news, I'm VERY pleased to have recently read the October 2009 Statistics from the Barrie and District Association of REALTORS®. This past October marked the highest level of sales on record for the area served by our Board. The sales activity jumped 39% from last October, in addition to being the 5th consecutive increase from previous year's levels. This is great news for those who want to make a move, and great news for our economy!

Until next time! Jamie
