A lot of my recent posts have dealt with the topic of today’s real estate market and how tough it is to get a transaction to the closing table.
We work so hard, and few realize just how much behind-the-scenes work is necessary each and every day to keep all of the deals in progress alive and kicking.
And it’s a great feeling when we finally close and are awarded our compensation for all of our efforts. It’s always good to have a payday in this business.
But it’s even better when a client shows special appreciation for a job well done. After a closing this morning, my partner Laura Ellen Beckom was presented this bouquet of balloons tethered to two mega boxes of chocolate bars! (Her favorites!)
Laura always does a great job for all of her clients, but this gift is a wonderful testimonial to her dedication to hard work and her professionalism!
Congratulations to Laura on a job well done!
And I hope that her thoughtful clients enjoy their new home for many, many years to come!

Richard, It is always nice to be recoginzed by our clients for the work that we do for them. I am sure that Laura will enjoy those chocolate bars long after they are gone.
Congrats Laura for a job well done
That's very cool! And a little recognition/appreciation can sure keep us going thru the tough times!
Richard, isn't that nice, congrats to Laura for sure. It is so nice to be appreciated.
Richard....congratulations to Laura.....It is nice to be appreciated.
Now that is nice! Congrats to Laura for a job well done! :)
Hi Richard ~ That is so cool. I'm always amazed and delighted (not to mention grateful!) when I receive gifts from clients. Truthfully it wouldn't have occurred to me before I was an agent to do the same when I was a customer. It sure makes a wonderful impression.

Richard..Congrats to Laura. something tells me you taught her well. It is rare to clients do anything above and beyond a thank you , not that we expect it!
That's great! So many agent are working so hard to get these transactions closed and not getting recognized. Congratulations to Laura and to you for recognizing her.
Richard,
I love it when clients appreciate the hard work and talents of their agent. Congratulations to Laura.
Rich
Always good to know your client appreciated your efforts. Too many people think all we do is put up a yard sign and wait for the bucks to roll in.
Richard, congrats to Laura for a job well done and for clients who appreciate her effort and show it in a fun, meaningful way (chocolate is very meaningful in my life :).
Richard - This is a truly terrific feeling when a client goes out of his/her way to show appreciation. After my first closing ever, back in 1997, my clients took me to a nice lunch and gave me a $200 gift certificate for one of the nicest restaurants in town. I was spoiled...
Good morning Richard,
What a wonderful recognition for Laura..congratulations to her for showing her clients her value. They in tern wanted to know how much she meant to them! Great feeling!!!
Richard: What a simple and fun way to say thanks to your Realtor®. I love it when my clients give me something special to thank me for their help. I never expect anything but a smile and a thank you when it's all said and done. Anything more than that is the icing on the cake. As for your partner, it certainly sounds like you have chosen a great one.
Richard:
Congratulations to your partner, Laura for getting this extra special treat. Yes, the money is nice but this type of recognition is so rewarding.
A couple that I just finished working with both wrote client testimonial letters and sent them to me this morning. Each of them did not know that the other was writing - so I have two to pick from this time. 'So lovely of them and I dearly appreciate it.
Laura must be very special and it's great that her clients recognize it.
It is a great compliment when a client makes such a jester. I just got home from a Housewarming/birthday party with a client who gave me a $50 gift card when we closed.
Congrats to Laura and her Mentor.
Good for her for doing and great job. It's always great to feel appreciated.
Hi Richard-
Validation of our hard work is such an unexpected pleasure. Congratulations to Laura on a job well done!

I always give a gift at the closing or soon after....there have been a few times i have received gift but there is nothing like the written word. We all work very hard to get to that table!
Richard ~ when a client gives you a closing/thank you gift, you know you've done a fantastic jog. Congratulations to Laura! I hope she enjoys the chocolates.
