Today was a good day in College Station Texas.  I moved here 4 months ago and started down this road to open a KWR office and be the Team Leader for Keller Williams Realty Brazos Valley market center.  I knew it would be hard and require lots of hours and I was ready for it…bring it on!  I have had lots of meetings with Mega Agents to New Agents and you know what I have discovered is an awesome thing, it is called community.  Community is just that, a group of people living in the same geographical area, sharing and working, enjoying seasons, football, baseball etc…  It is a wonderful thing to be part of that community.  I thought at first that the outsider from Lubbock would not be accepted, however I was wrong.  I want to relay a meeting I had today at a local coffee shop with an agent that represents to me community.

The time came for us to meet and the agent came in the door.  They appeared on time ready to have a cup of coffee.  We sit at a small table ready to solve the worlds problems.  The conversation started out wonderfully, you see it was a Bryan/College Station agent that I was with at the coffee shop.  This means I was sitting with a Representative of the community we call Brazos Valley.  They told me stories of life adventures, choices and decisions that where made about their life and of course how they got into real estate.  I sat there fascinated by it all, again communityshowed up.  We finished and I realized that we had been talking for over 2 hours about careers, changes in the industry, technology and of course company differences.  I thanked the agent for allowing me to visit with them and I left the shop.  On the way back to the office I thought, wow what a community this is to have people like this agent in it.  College Station, Bryan and the Brazos Valley I hope you know how lucky you are to have such great people who represent you each and everyday, as these REALTORS do.  They are true Ambassadors to your region.

Go College Station and Bryan, I now call you my community of choice.
