Our Culture
What We Believe
Service over Sales
It’s very easy in the Real Estate industry to allow service to fall by the wayside in comparison to sales because after all Real Estate is a sales driven business. However, we’ve been a part of many of deals where the sale was completed and the Buyer or Seller on the other side of the transaction was not happy walking away from the closing table because at some point during the transaction there was a breakdown in communication with their real estate agent and the sale became more important than the continued service. It’s our belief at Flamingo Real Estate and Management that the two go hand in hand and if your services meet or exceed your customers expectations then sales will simply be a byproduct.
Relationship over Realty
We are very passionate about real estate, but more passionate about people. We would choose relationship over Realty any day of the week. Great communication and Great relationships will always sell over a specific property. What most people misunderstand in this business is that it’s not simply about selling a specific property. There’s hundreds of properties to sell. In as much as you are selling a property, there’s no such thing as a property selling itself! It takes two parties agreeing upon a particular set of terms and without the joining of the two parties there is no sale! That is why our Brokerage values Relationships over Real Estate.
Presence over Price
In order to get the right price you must provide the right presence. Presence is more than just branding and marketing. It’s having your finger on the pulse of the local market and having an understanding of market conditions, both domestic and international, local government, planned communities, future expansions, planning and zoning boards, utility placement, and infrastructure. It’s our belief at Flamingo Real Estate & Management that what you know is just as important as who you know.
