“Learning is not attained by chance. It must be sought for with ardour and attended with diligence.”
~ Abigail Adams
As your Realtor® dedicated to excellence, my recent participation at the Girls With Grit LIVE women in real estate conference was a pivotal moment in my career and our partnership in real estate. With over 500 driven women, this experience solidified my belief in the power of dedicated networking and personal development.
Investing in Myself to Invest in You
Why invest in a Realtor® partner who continually seeks improvement? The skills, expertise, and expansive network I gain from top-tier coaching and specialized events like these directly enhance the service you receive. This network goes beyond a mere collection of contacts—it's a dynamic resource of national partners, all experts in their fields, ready to assist and elevate your real estate experience. Jon Cheplak, a notable leader in real estate coaching, insightfully noted at the conference, "Every level has its devils," meaning each new level of success comes with its own challenges, which I am here to tackle through continuous personal and professional growth and development.
Champions Seek Accountability
Accountability is a cornerstone of success. As Cheplak states, "Champions seek accountability." If you know me, you know I tend to hold myself to a ridiculously high standard, especially in my professional life. I invite the same from my family, friends, and you - my clients. Hold me accountable, push me, because I have set high expectations for myself and for the service I provide, and so should you. This approach goes beyond transactions to build lasting relationships and continuously deliver solid results.
Experience Matters
Jessica Woodbeck, a trailblazer in real estate innovation, posed a critical question: "What is your experience hiring an amateur and getting pro results?" The results are often predictable. With nearly two decades in medical device sales and marketing, and transitioning into real estate alongside my husband, a seasoned Realtor® of 24+ years, our combined experience covers all bases, understands market nuances, and anticipates needs before they become apparent.
A Shoutout to My Tribe
A massive shoutout to Tara, Lauren, Jamie, and everyone at GWG. This community forms a movement of formidable women dedicated to enhancing every facet of the real estate industry. I am incredibly proud to be part of this powerhouse group, pushing boundaries and setting new standards.
In closing, partnering with us means investing in a team that is committed to excellence and consistently delivering results. We aim to lead, inspire, and revolutionize the industry.
Here is a sample of what people are saying about us in 2024:
One of our clients:
"Brad and Shanna were fantastic realtors to work with. Our experience started off with an incredibly helpful first-time buyer’s consultation. Brad and Shanna walked us through the steps we would need to take to purchase our new home, including the loan and closing process. As first-time home buyers, we had a lot of questions that Brad and Shanna were able to answer. They have incredible knowledge of the real estate market, lending process, and housing structures providing great advice when viewing homes. One time, Brad even crawled into a crawl space to give us an initial assessment of the home. Brad and Shanna were very responsive and answered questions and set up bookings quickly. Brad was also a fantastic negotiator, helping us purchase a house below the asking price, and we received several seller concessions. Brad and Shanna made the home-buying process as stress-free as possible, and we could not have done it without them! We would recommend Brad and Shanna to anyone looking to buy a house, especially first-time home buyers.” ~ Tim and Monica C.
One of our vendor partners:
“I worked as a staging provider on one of Next Chapter Partners' listings, and they were excellent to work with! It's easy to see how hard Brad and Shanna work for their clients, communicate well, and are very experienced. Plus, they got their client over asking price for the home! Looking forward to working with them again in the future!” ~ Cooper T.
One of our fellow Realtors®:
“I worked with Shanna Schmidt on a transaction where Shanna was the Seller's Agent and I was the Buyer's Agent. Shanna was professional, communicated and was a breath of fresh air to work with throughout the process. Overall, Shanna is an ideal Agent to sit across the closing table from and I would very much welcome another chance to work with her. Thank you Shanna!” ~ Jessica G.
