Consider the Advantages of Dominating a Micro-Market! I published a version of this for a best practices contest about a year ago and I think it is even more relevant today.  Having observed other agents for some time before I go my license, I determined that one of the biggest mistake agents make is to take on listings and buyer clients from a wide geographic area.  It’s tempting because in working our SOI, we know people from many areas, and it’s hard to say no to business.  However, a laser-like focus on one neighborhood or community within a market area can create efficiencies in terms of marketing, expenses, and allow you to dominate the market.  This creates a virtuous cycle, "I see your name on sign riders everywhere, I guess you are the one to list my home with." or "You pop up ...

This is where I meet my clients, enjoy a latte, and chat with my neighbors.  This little cafe is the center of our community and brings us all together.  It's also where we have barbecues, parties, art exhibitions, poetry readings, and much more.  It's part of what makes Black Rock such a great place to live. In fact, people come from nearby towns to enjoy the ambience of this gathering spot.  Some decide to move to Black Rock from the suburbs because of the experience.  Breakfast at Harborview consists of waffles, pancakes, homemade muffins, scones, eggs, sausage, bacon, and fancier stuff at weekend brunches.  Lunch at Harborview is either one of Michelle's fabulous salads or soups, something Anthony makes at the grill, or a fabulous selection of homemade hot food.  I LOVE the hot lun...
