The Results are in...St. Lawrence Properties top agent, Larry Jensen ranks in the Top 20 Percent of all Realtors in Westchester, Putnam and Dutchess

WPMLS released their mid year results and the news is astonishing.

First to congratulate Larry Jensen for ranking in the Top 20% of over 7,500 agents in Year to Date Production.

Now onto the news. Out of over 7,500 active agents (down from more than 8,000 the year before) 5,000 agents had no production! 1,000 agents only did one transaction and 1,500 agents did two or more transactions.

So what does this mean? The reality is harsh, but not new. These stats are not a result of the economy or technology. These results are a tried and true principal...Pareto's Principal. So on the surface, a Buyer or Seller may look at the number...7,500 agents, ready willing and able(?) to help you buy or sell a home. The reality is there are 7,500 agents, but fewer than 1,500 of them are experienced enough to actually assist you. So what does a buyer or seller need to do? ASK QUESTIONS!

You may want to work with the new or inexperienced agent, but if you are looking for a Professional, Experienced agent, Ask them for their stats. What kind of business have they been doing in the past year? The past 6 months? Do they work mostly with Buyer's or Seller's or both? Ask for references! Speak to past clients of theirs. Are they happy with the service the agent provided? And if the agent tells you the Sellers moved and they are no longer in contact with them, that is a poor excuse. A Great Agent will always remain in contact with their past clients long after the transaction is done.

If you are looking to work with a Professional Agent in Westchester, Putnam or Dutchess Counties in New York, give Larry a call. He is a Pro you can count on. Results prove it.
