Introduction:

Hello everyone! As a 20-year-old realtor working at Century 21 Advantage in Columbia, IL, I understand that some home buyers and sellers may have concerns about working with a young agent. I get asked the question a lot, “Well why would I let such a young agent help me with a purchase of a home that’s 3, 4, $500,000.” This is totally understandable as this is going to be one of, if not, the largest purchase of your life. However, I am here to reassure you that youth should not be seen as a hindrance, but rather an advantage in today’s fast-paced and ever-changing real estate market.

Here are the top 5 reasons why home buyers and sellers should embrace a young Realtor like myself:

Energy and Enthusiasm:

I bring a high level of energy and enthusiasm to work each and every day. I make it a point to each client that I WILL go the extra mile to make the home buying or selling process as smooth as possible. There is no burnout in my thoughts as I am eager to be helping every single client who walks through the door!

Tech-Savvy:

As a part of the digital generation, I have grown up in this ever-changing tech-savvy world and have a deep understanding of the latest tools and technologies available in the market. This knowledge can be used to streamline the home buying or selling process and make it more efficient for my clients. I am active and engaged on all online platforms opening me and my clients up to so many different opportunities!

Adaptability:

Young realtors are known for their ability to adapt quickly to changing market conditions, technology, and client needs. I am no different. I see each new change as an opportunity to jump onto that next avenue. Whatever is going to ensure my clients’ success, I will go out of my way to do so. This is essential in today’s real estate market, where conditions can change rapidly and unexpectedly, so I aim to be there when it does.

Fresh Perspective:

Unlike some agents who have been in the industry year after year and may get a sense of compassion fatigue. I offer a fresh perspective to the table and can present unique insights into the market that may not have been considered by more experienced agents. This can be especially helpful for home buyers and sellers who are looking for new and creative solutions to their real estate needs. Many do not understand all of the different pathways that we as Realtors and mortgage lenders can offer to the table to help our clients get the absolute best deal possible. I stay up to date on these new strategies and work with great lenders, such as my good friend JR Obrecht over at Homestead Financial, in giving each client a customizable experience!

Passion for Helping Others:

For young realtors like myself, the passion for helping others is at the core of what drives us. I am dedicated to advancing my knowledge and skills in real estate and strive to provide the best possible service to my clients. I have something to prove to not just myself, but to other potential clients who may fall into that hesitant category to work with a young Realtor.  I will be giving 121% to every individual to show that I am committed. I am committed to the industry, I am committed to gaining knowledge, and I am committed to my clients in delivering the very best service that I can!

(*Bonus*) Backed by a Top Real Estate Brokerage:

As a Realtor at Century 21 Advantage, I have the support of one of the top real estate brokerages in the nation. With a strong team behind me every step of the way, I am able to provide my clients with the best possible service and results. The resources and expertise of Century 21 ensure that I am able to effectively market properties, negotiate on behalf of clients, and stay ahead of the latest industry trends and technologies. Whether you’re a first-time home buyer or a seasoned real estate investor, working with me and Century 21 Advantage is a smart choice for anyone looking to make the most of their real estate experience
