"When I start working with a new client, I will sit down with them and discuss what they lack in their current property, what they would change if they could, and why.

I have strong interpersonal skills and communication. I utilize a checklist which is mutually beneficial, and continually check-in with clients as I propose listings as their list may change over time. I practice warm and open communication in order to build rapport whilst creating their property wish list.
