On a recent business trip, I overheard a conversation from the folks sitting behind me on the airplane.  The young lady was from Denmark and she had just graduated, but was taking a year off before starting college to travel around Europe.  My daughter is getting ready to start college, so I thought about how I would feel if she told me she was going to backpack through Europe for the next 12 months instead of heading off to college!  Yikes!  Well in Denmark, as in other parts of Europe, this is a very common practice.    In fact, adults taking “holiday” is accepted and embraced by many European cultures.  In the US, some adults do not make vacation a priority.  In the real estate world, I often see agents who don’t feel they have time to take vacation, or if they do, they wind up working on vacation.  I think we can and should take a clue from our European cousins and take time to stop and TRULY unplug, even if for just a few days each year.  That would mean turning off your phone and email during the day so you can really be in the moment with your friends or family.  If you are not part of a real estate team, connect with an agent that shares similar business practices, and agree to trade off watching each other’s business.  Our office offers a showing agent program where you have access to agents that are available to show homes for your clients while you are out of town.  So as the busy summer season winds down, take a moment and plan some time to recharge, renew, and reenergize!

Showing Agent Program

Summer is the busiest time of the year for a REALTOR. During those crazy months, it seems like there isn't enough time in the day to accomplish everything on your list. Luckily, there is a solution for you.  A few months ago, REAB launched the Showing Agent Program, where agents can connect with me when they are out of town, or have a scheduling conflict, and need another agent to show homes to their clients.


Set up a showing agent with these simple steps:

1. Email Kelly at agentservices@abilityplus.com with your service request.
2. Include date, time, and approx. number of homes to be shown.
3. Kelly will contact a showing agent for you and coordinate the request.



Showing Agent Program Testimonial from Tom Endicott- REAB Fishers Office
"Our business has a lot of peaks and valleys.  When we are at a peak of activity sometimes it is just impossible to physically handle all the requests we receive.  I've been using the showing agent service for a few months now and love it.  I'm looking at expanding my usage of it so I have more time to do other productive activities."
