Letting Go Gets Results!

Well it has been quite a week for me.

I opted out of a Listing that was truly draining me and I feel so much better. It was interesting how I felt when I received follow up e-mails from the client that I had just let go. My anxiety level skyrocketed when I saw who was e-mailing. This is not good and I feel freed and unencumbered because of my choice. I have had so much new work and good things happen since freeing myself.

Here in Northern California we put together pre-sale disclosure packages that are available on-line. After cancelling with these Sellers I sent all of these and all of the marketing associated with this property for thier use. I want to sew good karma and maintain my professional countenance.

Trust me I am not so overwhelmed with work that I can throw it away but the Mrs. in this situation was impossible, negative and downright rude to us. I have had clients like this over the years and can usually just re-focus the negativity into a positive situation but not this time.

Sometimes it's best just to move along and bow out gracefully.

So, I now have a $2 million plus listing in the Pacific Heights area of San Francisco (I only go that far north for family and really close friends). I did one of these last year for very very close friends, two blocks away from this one. Then I listed two Equestrian properties in the Central Valley andI currently have two Palo Alto homes listed at $1,130,000 each.

I do handle many Equestrian properties because I am a member of the horse show world here in Northern Cal. It takes an intimate familiarity with the horse show world both English and Western across the nation to get the attention that they need from other Equestrians. This is something that I know hands down. The far reaching marketing and advertising for these properties require is imperative. It is typically a trainer or very involved amateur that need these fully tricked out facilities.

So in letting go, I was freed to be open for all of these wonderful opportunities! How was your week?
