The National Association of Realtors President Gary Thomas said, Homeownership matters to Americans, who consistently realize the many benefits it provides to communities, families and the nations economy. Of course, as Realtors, we already know thatbut are we doing enough to help those families get the support they deserve?

The 3 Cs for Successfully Supportive Realtors

Realtors with the best track records follow the 3 Cs: Communication, Clarity and Commitment.

Communication: As Realtors, we know that communicating with our clients is a must. We need to understand what theyre looking for, what will make them happiest and what really makes them tick. Part of stellar client service also includes communicating that we do understand those things and showing them (not just telling them) that we can help them. This also includes helping clients through mediums theyre most comfortable with, whether its text messaging, emailing, phone chats or face-to-face contact.

Clarity: Both buyers and sellers (and Realtors, for that matter) have suffered because of miscommunication between parties. Making sure your clients understand every part of the process is essential. When youre absolutely certain what your clients want and need, and theyre confident in your ability to deliver, youre providing them a service thats much more valuable than the purchase or sale of a home. Youre establishing a trusting relationshipand in todays marketplace, those are few and far between.

Commitment: Its Real Estate 101you dont give up on your clients. Naturally, some clients present more challenges than others, but thats not what were talking about. Were talking about long-term commitment. Once youve helped your clients purchase or sell, you dont hit the road; you keep in touch. Social media has made this more possible than ever, but dont overlook the simple things our forefathers in real estate did: holiday cards, personal notes and the occasional phone call.
