The Kind of Agent Bryce Is
"The first real estate agent I spoke to acted like an agent more concerned about making money than addressing my needs and concerns. So I was transferred to another agent. Thank God Bryce Barnes answered the phone.
From the start, Bryce made me feel that he was talking to me and not at me. I felt I could be honest with him about my needs and concerns. I felt as if I was speaking to a friend instead of a real estate agent.
The home buying process became overwhelming at one point, bringing tears to my eyes. I spoke to Bryce about my concerns and he helped calm my nerves. He even prayed with me over the phone to help ease the burden I was carrying. Who does that? I will answer my own question — a caring person with great character who put me ahead of profit.
You are doing yourselves a disservice by not promoting him to a position that will allow him to train other agents how to go above and beyond, how to make clients feel like friends and even family, and how to think outside of the box."
