The World of Commercial Real Estate According to @BCCommercial: July 2010

To keep your balance you must keep moving!

Albert Einstein's quote intrigues me. I was sitting here trying to make application of his words of wisdom, and I think I have made a breakthrough in applying to the Real Estate Industry.

There are those of us who are proudly "old school" in our methods with the timeless handshakes and warm chatter which have made a lot of money and created many long-lasting business bonds. There is a new generation of Real Estate Professionals that have Bluetooths permanently connected to their ears, they are constantly maintaining all the their many social/professional networks, Internet marketing and the next best technically based application to build their business.

Balance involves both. I happen to like both and think that they have applications that are client-based. I say this because our potential or current clientele respond to different "stimuli" and it is our job to find out what those best methods are and utilize them to the best of our abilities.

We have clientele that do not use email. You say, "Who doesn't use email??? It's 2010!" Yes, my friend, but some people prefer to use their perception and have that face to face conversation or at least a telephone chat in order to glean meaning, demeanor and perceived sincerity. It creates a confidence level for them. We have clients that do not want to be bothered with meetings and phone calls, only email.

The real estate agent that is really on their game will take the time to get inside the head of their client and find out what makes that client tick. I learned this a long time ago in my early days of Business Development.

We need to take time to get to know their needs, understand where they are coming from. Clients appreciated when I took interest in them, their families, what they liked to do for recreation, their favorite restaurant. My connection was real and tangible to them.

I love the Internet. I love Internet marketing. I actually do quite a bit of it on a daily basis. We have Twitter, Facebook, FB pages, blogs, LinkedIn, Digg, and various NING networks as well.

I think with this explosion of constant information exchange and just plain "activity" going on around us, the balance is what we do, why we do it, exercising time management and does it work?

We all have a lot of things to maintain in our individual businesses, professional and personal. Balance is key to maintaining increasing success while enjoying the ride. I don't want to be spinning my wheels on a lot of activity just to be active. I want my activity to be productive and beneficial...not to mention be enjoyable.

Time for a Makeover

As you may know, Longwood Gardens is a well-sought after destination for both tourists and locals alike in the Kennett Square area and beyond. Planning your trip is easy right from their website. The only part of your itinerary that you cannot plan for is the traffic.

The congestion at Route 52 and US Route 1 has been a tolerated hazard of travel in the Southern Chester County Region for quite a few years. However, it is reported that a $15.4M project to relocate Route 52 is commencing within the next few weeks. The new relocated route will take drivers over a scenic bridge overseeing a pond and lush greenery.

The former Route 52 connecting at 926 and US Route 1 will now be utilized as a private access road for Longwood Gardens. The hope is that this project will enhance everyone's experience coming to Longwood and the Kennett/Chadds Ford area.

Our Southern Chester County region is a continuously improving, expanding area with something for everyone to enjoy. Beiler-Campbell Commercial Realty would love to have the opportunity to show you the great commercial locations we have available for your business. Contact us today via email or call us at 610.444.7770. We look forward to serving you!
