Grow Your Business

The second pillar for our company is Grow Your Business. Grow Your Business is about building a team, having more time and not paying too much in taxes. We know so many great agents that have worked for years making very high incomes but they’re not tax-efficient so the more they make the more they spend in taxes. That money, as much as possible, should be going back to you. Another part of growing a business in building a team. A team could be as simple as you partner with another agent, it could be having an assistant or it could be building a huge team if you want to go really big. We’re going to work with you on how to build a team correctly and to make sure it serves what your needs are for your clients and for your future. Whether you want to make more money or have more time or both. If you want to talk to us about your real estate career I’d love to help you to the next level or get started. Give us a call.

Know Your People

The first pillar of our company is Knowing Your People. We believe that everyone already knows all the people they need to know to have a successful business, they just don’t know it. Most great agents and most agents in total don’t even have a database put together and it can be overwhelming. If you know hundreds of thousands of people it can take you months to put together a database. We have developed a process and the tools to help people build their database from scratch, and then implement a marketing plan that’s based on their goals for their business: To stay in touch with their people, to deliver value and to stay consistent with their clients before, during, and after a transaction. You can be assured you will get the most repeat and referral business and your clients know that you care about them, more than anyone else would, if they didn’t have this program. If you’re interested in learning more we would love to talk to you about your career in real estate.

Win Your Future

The third pillar at City and State is Winning Your Future. Winning your future is about creating financial independence for you and potentially generational wealth for your family. There’s no better way to do that than investing in real estate. There are great agents we know who do an amazing job helping their clients buy and sell property but don’t know how to invest for themselves. Or, they’re so scared or overwhelmed with the differences between residential and investment that they don’t get started. Now if you’ve been putting it off and you’re feeling overwhelmed, we would love to talk to you. Or, if you’ve started your portfolio and you want to increase it and make it more efficient and more profitable, we would love to talk to you. If this makes sense to you and you think this might be the right place for you we would love to talk to you about your real estate career.
