Real Estate Referrals
Realtors deeply appreciate referrals that are sent to them by past clients, friends or business associates. There is usually an immediate credibility that has been established by way of the person who does the referring.
That past client or friend has been impressed with your level of service, your expertise and people skills to pass your name along. They expect that the realtor will treat their client with the superior level of service they so appreciated!
Any realtor must treat that referred client with the highest level of priority and service. Otherwise, that referral stream will likely dry up very quickly as the person referred shares their disappointment with the one who referred them.
Watching the apparent pain and disappointment in Jesper Parnevik, the Swedish professional golfer, as he was being interviewed about his role in introducing his former nanny, Elin, to Tiger Woods brought the risk of referring into clear relief. Now Jesper regrets the day he and his wife made that introduction. He said he owes Elin an apology.
I take all my Edmonton referrals seriously for three reasons: 1. I want to ensure that the referring party never receives any negative feedback about my performance; 2. I want to ensure that my new client is fully satisfied in the their home purchase; 3. I want to enlist that new client as another member of my referral network. Unmistakably, it is well worth my time to offer all my clients a superior level of service.
