She has a strong educational background with needed certifications and serves her buyers and sellers throughout Bergen, Passaic, Essex and Hudson Counties.
FOR ERA JUSTIN REALTORS SCHOOL IS NEVER OUT
It takes responsible schooling, training and focus in this quickly changing real estate industry to be successful for area sellers who rely on their Realtors. For the real estate professionals at ERA Justin Realty, the semester for learning is 365 days long.
Ron Darby, ERA Justin Realty broker co-owner said “The business of being a Realtor has become significantly more complex. Innovation in technology and the knowledge required to apply it effectively to our profession continues to proceed at a dizzying pace. Our clients use technology to communicate with us in ways that few could have imagined just a few short years ago, and they expect us to be proficient with using technology as they are. As cell phones replace office phones and electronic organizers replace appointment books, the power of the Internet dominates as a global marketing presence to every Realtor at our firm.”
Kristen Davis, a full time Realtor associate with the firm stated, “The regulatory environment in which we operate has become more complicated as well. Legal protections for consumers, a host of financing options and a myriad of state and local regulations place demands on our attention that we must be prepared to meet to continue to best serve the interests of our clients. Therefore, the knowledge base that each one of us must possess grows daily.
I'm not suggesting that sales professionals should feel nostalgia for simpler times. In truth, successful Realtors have always invested considerable effort to achieve success. If a sales associate's job simply consisted of putting up a sign, running an ad and waiting for the phone to ring, our profession would have been phased out of existence long ago. Our continuing education and training helps clients reach their real estate goals that instill value in what we do.
The intelligent use of technology has always been a core principle at ERA Justin Realty, particularly when it comes to education. We attend ongoing training each month through ERA Corporate E-Campus, the RealSource Association of Realtors and through the National Association of Realtors with innovative use of communications and multimedia technology.
With our ongoing training and education, Realtors don't have to wait until the end of a semester to find out how they are doing. The results are visible in a buyer’s happiness when they find a home that meets their needs both financially and emotionally and a successful sale for our sellers in this modifying real estate market. We measure our successes and how we are doing every day.”
Darby concluded, “We are proud to offer this, one of a series of informational tips for homeowners. We offer continuing articles in the media as an added measure to make our phrase ‘There is a difference in real estate companies,’ more than just a phrase, but a reality. Because of our daily efforts, we received the prestigious ERA world-wide 2003 through 2007 ‘Commitment to Excellence Award,’ one of 14 premier ERA real estate firms from 3,000 across the nation, as well as being honored as a ‘Top-100’ ERA firm. Only outstanding business entities are honored and receive these accolades.
