If you are reading this on Thursday, May 6th, I am somewhere off the coast of Washington racing from Astoria to Victoria, BC aboard Riva, the J-46 sailboat that I crew on doing the Oregon Offshore race.

If I was a sole practitioner I would need to use another Realtor that I was comfortable with but not necessarily their first priority.  Being a part of a team, I know that if a client that I am working primarily needs something while I am gone, it’s covered.

I’m not saying that doesn’t work great with some agents but when Jenny and I were just the two of us we did have an experience where the agent that was covering for us got a call from thier client so dumped ours even though they had things scheduled.

A quick note on comments: this new platform requires that I moderate the first post by any commenter.  After approval of the first comment, all subsquent comments will post in real time.
