Love Letter To Real Estate
I was asked to speak for three minutes on what I do… three minutes is a short time to encapsulate my love of real estate. So I wrote a love letter … not to a person but to
..
Dear Real Estate,
I did not fall in love with you because of square footage or sales prices.
I fell in love with you because you are about courage.
You are about the woman who decides she's ready for a new chapter,
The couple who outgrows their first little kitchen,
The first steps that echo across hardwood floors,
The dreams that are scribbled at kitchen tables,
The dogs who claim corners,
The family who needs more light, more land, more possibility,
And the brave soul who says, "I think it's time."
You are never just a house.
You are change wrapped in drywall.
