I really like having a blog. Except when I am not writing. Then I almost feel guilty, like I am tempting my readers with the promise of new content, only to disappoint them when they open my page to see the same latest post for three weeks straight. Ugh. Sorry.
But, as you can tell from the title, I have really big news that will explain the slacking off on the updating. I have a new real estate gig. That’s right, after several years of loving life in a Bucktown Boutique office, I am will be tacking my license up in a new locale.
I have joined the Seattle based Redfin.com. We just launched our Chicago site in late June. What is Redfin.com you may ask yourself. Redfin is the first online real estate brokerage for home-buyers and-sellers. Our mission is to use the Internet to give home buyers and sellers more information with less hassle, better service, and new money-saving choices. Our website combines real estate listings with tax records and analytics on an aerial map of cities such as Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose, Seattle and Washington, DC. Customers who are ready to buy a home can save money by using our electronic service to make an offer, with local Redfin agents handling negotiations and closing. We offer a similar service for sellers.
This is a great fit for me, philosophically and professionally. I mean how can I go wrong with a real estate company that wants to change the real estate industry for the better? I like changing things for the better. So check out our really cool website, look at properties, and smile with me. I am really excited for this opportunity.
