If you asked Jamie how he does what he does he will most likely tell you that he follows his heart. After a very successful start to his career in 2008, at a time when property prices were on a downward spiral, Jamie bucked the trend, selling over 40 homes in his first 12 months, while others were still contemplating how to react to the market.
“I finished my first year and thought, wow that was a good start, but there was something missing. I didn’t feel as great as I thought I would”. And so started a journey for Jamie to understand what success really looked like for him.
“Ten years on and I look back and can see where my why has come from.” Jamie soon worked out that just selling a lot of houses wasn’t a measure for success. A close mentor advised Jamie. “It doesn’t matter how many properties you sell or what awards you win, you still need to be able to put your head on the pillow at night and sleep well.”
Jamie is now embarking on the next stage of his career with a clear focus on growth and mentorship for others. “I found that there are so many factors when meeting your clients needs and expectations. If you make the relationship the centre of your why, then everything else just falls into place”
Take the time to talk to Jamie about your next move. It will most likely be a conversation worth having.
