SHARON BELL PETER RIETVELD – 17 years “ “ One of the best business tools an office can offer is the power of the brand One thing I love about the property business is that I can hold my head up high and be proud that I have found a home or assisted someone in selling theirs without ever feeling embarrassed when meeting them again public. What I hate about this business: The lack of loyalty - I was taught doing business on a handshake, but unfortunately greed has taken over in many cases and what is promised today is forgotten tomorrow. I have been in real estate for 28 years in the Table View and Blouberg areas, of which 17 of those years have been with RE/MAX Property Associates. The advice I would give to agents is to always be sincere with the people around you and never play their emotions as buying and selling a property is stressful enough. Another tip is to build up your referral base. One of the best business tools an office can offer is the power of the brand. RE/MAX has a distinctive logo with colours that stand out above the rest, this is a powerful tool.
