Keller Williams has created a new training course for New Agents and Agents that want to IGNITE their business. In one month, agents will be trained in business preparation, lead generation, database creation and set up and creating the systems to work with buyers and sellers. I am thrilled to be the lead training and having more opportunities to support new businesses in real estate.
I’ve been speaking at the team meeting at my office each week about great negotiation tips. This weeks : during negotations - when one party gives a concession, the best practice is to ask for something in return. If the buyer wants a lower price and the refrigerator, the seller says yes to the lower price and no to the refrigerator. If seller says yes to both (thus not asking anything in return) the buyer usually continues asking for more. The original NO creates a strong boundary and helps the transaction go more smoothly (even for the one that got the no).
Getting ready to teach the new agent class on Monday at 1:30. a new awesome group.
This week there where 3 new listings in Santa Monica from Keller Williams.
How can you loose? Right now it will be hard? Real estate is down 20% all over the westside and the last time that happened, I bought in Santa Monica. Not to many years later, I gained $400,000 from selling that property. This allowed me the opportunity to purchase a dear home and have an affordable mortgage.
If you take the opportunity to purchase at these low prices you are setting yourself to accomplish a similar outcome. There’s no guaranteed and on the westside prices are never below the prices at the last low cycle.
David Bach states that statistically, owners net worth is $171,000 while renters net worth is $14,000. Call me and I can help you fulfill that dream.

Today we walked all over the Warehouse district to find breakfast until we met a tour guide that sent us to the French Quarter to eat at Oceania’s near Bourbon street. I had a huge omelette, decent coffee and a sweet time. Then we walked around and I hit a quiet hour with friends of Bills. From there we walked to the French Quarter to pick up a tour, missed the one we thought we’d take, realized we were a little hunger, so decided on a salad at Stanley off Jackson Park. Love the jazz in the background. Grabbed a mule buggy tour through the French Quarter and learned some great stories. Of course after that, we need a Biegnut at Cafe Du Monde where I proceed to spill my hot chocolate all over the front of my white vest. It was worth it.. After all that sugar we had to work out so grabbed a trolley to the Garden District where we wandered through densely tree lined streets to see the plantation mansions in their various conditions. Some in need of repair, some in the middle of rebuilding and other quite perfect. Talk about owning a potential lemon, buy a house that was build in 1870!. The walk back to our hotel took hours but we worked off that donut.
Just opened my new website. So nice.. CallAshley.com or AshleyWrobel.com
