Why do we get along so well with our clients? It's connection to kindness.


Work that is not work
We were out touring properties today with clients who have been watching our YouTube channel for awhile and they kept saying how much fun it was to hang out with us while looking at homes. They were rather surprised when I said I had only been a Realtor for almost four years, as I seemed like a natural in the work I do and I wasn't "like other Realtors". I let her know that being in the profession of real estate to me was just an extension of the joy I feel in helping other people. And helping them discover the same things that bring me happiness. And they sense that we are not doing our "work" because we have to! We do this work because it's not work!
What's the draw?
I was just listening to a podcast about spirituality and the guest discussed the fact that when you do things out of love and joy, it creates a light and energy that attract people who can see it and feel it.
When our client said, "I called you because I felt a connection while watching you on your videos". I shared with her that the reason I love doing what we do is because we work with people whom we ALREADY LIKE BECAUSE WE HAVE DRAWN THEM TO US just by doing what we love and that is sharing information, resources and advice on helping them DO THE THING THEY WANT TO DO and that is living on this island. It's a fantastic circle!
Kuleana
Our clients were walking in a forest along the coastline and they had heard the listing agent talk about the future value of the land when it could be developed. They said they have no goal to develop the land, in fact, they would love to keep it undeveloped as they know how special it is and have seen so much development around them from where they are from, that the last thing they would want to do is change the land. I told them, that is the kind of attitude we love to foster when it comes to protecting Hawaii. I shared with them the concept of Kuleana. Responsibility. You don't really own the land, the land is just your responsiblity to care for it. I know they connected with that concept, and I DO believe they feel it and know it to be true.
Walking the Walk
Eric and I have been saying that we need to do more videos around the energy on the island, or the magical mystical things that happen here or the energy that calls people..but after speaking with our clients today, I think the answer is this...we just do it. We don't preach it, we just live it. And share it and know we have a responsiblity to this island to bring in good people, with good hearts who know Aloha WAAAAY before someone has to teach them what that means and is. The people who connect with us and want to work with us are just good people who want to make a difference and know this is a special place to call home. And many are my personal friends now. It's good. Really good!
Feeling the connection? We are never too busy to be able to do a Zoom call to talk to you about life on the island and how you can make your goals of living here (even if its part time!) happen, contact me!
