Add Value, and Money Will Follow

Dear BP members,

Let me seize this opportunity to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a prosperous investing for the year 2015. I joined this blog about two months ago and within this period have gained tremendous knowledge from contributions of BP members. I am very sure that no formal education could afford me this wealth of knowledge of hundreds of experienced real estate investors, with specialties in different segments of real estate profession, within this short period. The sincerity and openness with which each member is willing to divulge information and help others is unprecedented. Once again, I say thank you all for the posts and contributions which have contributed in no small measure in teaching me all that I have come to know in the real estate investing domain at the moment. I am still very hungry for knowledge and I learn from every post on this site.

Now to the title captured above, I read this article by Adam Doran where he emphasizes the need for empathy and putting yourself in the shoes of the person you are dealing with, all with a view to solving his problems, rather than just making a sale. He opines that in so doing, you create a win-win situation which has a multiplier effect on your real estate. i believe that this is a universal principle that will work anywhere irrespective of the type of business involved.

Merry Christmas!
