On the edge of your seat...

Wow!

What a game last night. What an emotional roller coaster I went on throughout this series.

As a Canuck fan, and a pretty fanatical one at that, I am so glad to see some demons exorcised.

But I couldn't help but think about a few things while on that ride last night.

I to am in the process of selling my home and looking for a new one. And guess what, I am on the same roller coaster ride with that process as well.

I wanted to blog quickly today about this. Not only from my Point of view as a professional in guiding people through this process, but about being the one on the other side. I think I can offer a pretty fair POV.

My house has been on the market for almost a year now and we've had a few deals we thought were great collapse last minute due to unforeseen circumstances.

How did I feel?

Upset, Angry, Disappointed, Sad...etc.

So even though I know the process I still go through the gamut of emotions that every normal person would.

Aren't I supposed to be the professional one here?

Got me to thinking though and provided me with a new outlook on dealing with my clients.

Once you can understand the view from the other side, you can help them deal with the expectations and the letdowns.

I am that much better now having gone through it myself.

A few weeks ago I would have given them a fairly comprehensive outline of the process and what is going to happen.

Having done so myself now, I can provide better insight into the whole situation.

So what do the Canucks and my House for sale have in common?

They have both ripped the heart out of my chest at times and made me question the process.

What I need to do, and what I tell all of my clients is to have faith in the process.

Believe what A.V. says in the paper when he says we will follow the process and see it through. And they did. And because of this I hit the roof last night when they scored in OT!

Trust your Realtor and the job they do. If you have questions ask, they've been through it before, and they will again. and again. and again.

It is the end result that matters.

So a Thank you to my Realtor, Tracey L'hoist for putting up with me in my time of need ;)

And thank you to the Canucks. Because losing was never an option.

Won't find anything on my website relating to the canucks, but what you will find is a referral based program to people I trust and use. http://www.kevynoyhenart.ca/

Until tomorrow....

Go Canucks Go !
