You may have heard the news by now, but if not let me tell you that the management has changed in the Lahaska office. With the addition of the 6 Diamond offices, everyone realized that Barry needed to focus solely on his legal responsibilities, so he was named General Counsel and moved into a private office instead of managing Lahaska.
The team of Marianne, Bob and Chris begin managing Lahaska today. Team management was an experiment when it started in Yardley, Washington Crossing and Newtown. Nobody was really sure how rotating managers with different skills would work for the benefit of the agents and the business. Everyone now agrees that it is a great idea. Knowing that if you have a technical question you can ask Bob, a sales question you can ask Chris or a business question you can ask Marianne has made finding answers much easier for those agents. Adding Lahaska seemed a natural fit - it is close to Newtown, has a mixed group of agents with different skills, and it is a fun bunch with a great office culture! We'll all watch together as it plays out.
What does it mean to you? Well, even if you are in an office way far away from Lahaska, you benefit from having our company lawyer focused full time on the law. Remember that your manager should be your first contact (since often Barry has given them that answer before) but if there is a situation they think should be elevated to him they know he is available. Additionally, be sure to read Barry's Real Estate Law Blog for helpful pointers on running your business effectively in this litigious world.
When looking for new places to prospect, don't forget those chamber of commerce events! I was at one the other day and ended up placing a referral to Naples, Florida. Not only that but I learned something for my business too.
