WORK WITH THE RULES, HAPPILY!

Hi [name] and welcome to my Weekly Insight for Monday 11th March 2013

Quote for the week:

"Keep your fears to yourself, but share your courage with others."

Robert Louis Stevenson (1850 - 1894)

WORK WITH THE RULES, HAPPILY!

After over 32 years in real estate I feel I have a reasonable understanding of how this business really works!

In recent times we have had a major change in legislation, which many have embraced and simply got on with their job.

In my view that is to simply:

List property.

Market Property.

Educate Vendors.

Treat Buyers with fairness.

Sell Property.

Build a proud professional reputation.

Generate Preferrals.

Have a life!

To me, that's what we were doing before the new legislative regime came along!

Now it apears so many want to complicate it, or to in the words of some people; "They are out to get us!"

The new legislation doesn't have that intent. In my view the new legislation does the following:

It brings consumer legislation into the Code of Conduct. This legislation existed pre REAA and there should really be no change. 

It sets out a clear set of rules and code of conduct that we need to operate within.

It gives the consumer, and licensees, an avenue to make a complaint when they feel they have just cause. Yes there are some frivolous complaints, but they get dealt with appropriately.

The consequences for licensees who are found guilty of unsatisfactory conduct or misconduct have increased markedly.

It's very simple!

To suceed long-term in real estate you need to WORK WITH THE RULES, HAPPILY!

Spend this week being the best you can be, whatever it is you decide to embrace!
