Why I switched to Keller Williams Realty: Because my clients deserve the best service in Louisville. No other company in Louisville can compare to the educational training that Keller Williams provides. Keller Williams taught each member on the Heidi Fore Real Estate team specific items of service that we do for each client. Our buyers and sellers love the attention we give them, and our dedication to their needs. They have referred us to their friends and co-workers because they are so impressed with the outstanding service. Better training = Better service for clients = more sales. That's how the Heidi Fore team sells a house a week, in an average week, and sometimes two or three houses a week.
So what's is like to be a realtor with Keller Williams Louisville?
It's awesome! I love, love, LOVE my career. Why do I love being in real estate in Louisville?
 | I get to help people. My clients
can feel how much I care about their happiness. My clients send me their
friends and family all the time because I took such good care of them. |
| I choose where my career is
going. It's not just a sales job. I don't push people to buy houses. Houses
sell themselves to the right person. I show people the houses that they could want to buy. |
| I choose how fast my career is growing. Is your company helping you grow? How are they supporting you and growing your career? |
| I make decisions about my career
path - where do you want to go with your career? Do you want to be in your
position for the next 15 years? What is your path to the next position? I went from sales agent, to real estate team, to leadership position in the new office. |
| I get to work with people - good people. I get to drive around Louisville, see beautiful houses, meet wonderful clients, and get the emotional satisfaction of helping someone find a home. |
| I'm not in the office all day. When someone wants to sell a house, or buy a house, I do my homework on the houses in the office, go out and help the clients face to face, then come back to the office for the paperwork. |
| I embrace the newest technology - smart phone, GPS systems, the latest computer software, mapping systems, laser measurers, digital infrared keys, its exciting to be ahead of the tech curve |
| I learn from other agents who are successful, and at Keller Williams they are willing to teach me. I teach other agents too. Our office is friendly and positive and we share ideas. Its a close-knit family environment. |
| The Keller Williams office helps me achieve the goals that I set for myself. I have always felt at Keller Williams that there are people looking out for me and wanting me to succeed. |

As a REMAX Realtor, I was the top agent at REMAX Action First in 2005 and 2006. I achieved the prestigious REMAX International Platinum Award. I sold about 40 houses a year, and couldn't do anymore. I need to learn more skills to improve my service to clients, to help more people and be more time-efficient. I worked very hard to be that successful. I liked it so much that I had no life outside of work. I thought that to be successful, I had to work 14 hours everyday. I didn't know there was a different way to give the same level of service to my clients, and still have time for my family. I was happy with my old company. I wasn't thinking about leaving. But after seeing what Keller Williams offers, I realized that there is a better way to run a real estate business.
WHAT MAKES A REALTOR SUCCESSFUL?
You have to love working with people.
You have to be totally service oriented.
If you are a 'what's in it for me' person, you won't succeed. You have to put your clients wants ahead of yours to be successful. People know it when an agent is just in it for a check, and they know when someone genuinely cares about them. If you treat people with dedication to meeting THEIR needs, not yours, they will refer you to their friends, family and coworkers. And you will make ten times more money in the long run, rather than if you just tried to sell them a house they didn't need.
You have to be flexible.
You have to be self-driven. Nobody is looking over your shoulder telling you what to do each day. You need to make yourself get up and go to work. But once you realize how fun it is to be a realtor, you'll want to jump up and go to work.
