Maui Real Estate

I Love My Job!

As Realtors we have the opportunity to have a pretty flexible lifestyle. If your are from Aspen or Tahoe you might start your day with a couple powder runs to get the day started. It’s a great way to start the day. You might even take your clients out to show them some of your favorite runs.
I have a lot of friends that are serious golfers and they are on it early in the morning before work. So we have the opportunity to manage our time for a little R&R or get out and enjoy ourselves. What other job is there that we can work hard and still be able to slip in some quality time for our selves.

Today I am working at Ho’olei Wailea sitting on the project site. As I am blogging I am watching the ASP Pro surfing tour contests in Tahiti on line. Today is kind of a slow day and it’s actually raining from the Kona Winds that brought in the rain.

Ho’olei is a new project with 120 luxury town homes. You know it’s slow when a fellow realtor stops in and is telling me that she is stepping up her property management properties to off set her income from the slow real estate market. I feel lucky to be working in Wailea, it is slower but with prices running up to $10M. You gotta ask your self do you feel lucky today. So yes I do love my job. I have another hour and them I am off for a board meeting if you know what I mean. The north shore winds are still and the waves are small. So I am going to bust out my stand up board for an afternoon work out.

So our job can be challenging at times, escrows, clients, slow market and mortgages. We still have a life; it’s not all about work. I love my job but this does not define who we are, it’s just a job. You need to get out and mix it up, it keeps you fresh for the next day. In a slow market you need to keep refueling your tanks and keep the stoke going. Business will happen so mix it up and keep it fresh. Go burn a few powder runs or jump on your mountain bike and burn some energy.
