My heart still races very fast when I have friends who call and say,
"Babe, hubs and me thinking to sell the home. You become our agent eh?"

"Kin, we want to rent out our place!"

Of course, I feel very honoured to have them have me in their thoughts to handle important transactions. Totally.
But PRESSURE dia pon boleh tahan.

What if they are not pleased with my services?
What if at the end of everything and my company bills them they ask,"Eh kena bayar eh? Ingatkan members free seh."

Oh man. Ni yang tak sedaps.

BUT THEN AGAIN....
This is my profession and regardless of whom it is, everyone will be treated like a VIP. And that I should stay firm to myself and not decrease my quality of work in anyone's eyes.
No such thing as chin chye work.
Chants:"Do my best Do my best Do my best!"

Well, I think Allah SWT has willed that for year 2015, F.R.I.E.N.D.S will be the launching pad for my real estate business.
Hence, I must step up.
Like not put their cases to the back burner just because we are friends.

So the beginning of the year its like bertubi tubi seh members telefon I. 

1) E's friend's father (AH TAK AKU STRESS?!)
Jangan play play seh. Ni BAPAK orang oi.
He engaged me as his agent for buying his mansionette at Woodlands.


Amazing how God works. Since I was around Woodlands that night, had a client contacting me immediately asking me to rent out their whole unit because they will be staying with their children. With a huge well maintained home like this, managed to secure tenants at a good price, within a week. Alhamdullilah.
Nice hor?
Ok topic dah lari sikit. Back to friends......

2) My gf of about 5-6 years. We started off very polite by the way. Baca past messages macam nak vomit at our politeness gitu. But that year, I got quite a few speaking jobs and exposure thanks to her. Hugs. Gua love you big time Farena.



3) My secondary school gf. She first had the intention to sell EIGHTY EIGHT WEEKS AGO! (Ya this pic I took from my instagram dated 88 weeks ago!) So 88 weeks passed and she finally asked me to come to her place for presentation again.
This time with her husband present.



When I came to her place for presentation, she served me some mean chicken chops.
No time for pictures. Its NOM NOM NOM all the way. Thanks Suria!

4) Another secondary schoolmate. My junior in secondary school. Alhamdullilah, managed to sell his home which had an ethnic ratio quota (Very challenging!) .....and secured a home both he and wifey liked.

5) A teacher friend who has secured a BTO so selling is a must.

Ok nak cerita balik pasal Farena....

Farena...my landlord.
When I asked her to pass me pics of her home to be put at Property Guru, you see la the kind of pics she sent me.
She included her selfie pic with hubby all. 

But the best part now is that I can just reply,"OI! HOW CAN PUT THIS KIND OF PHOTOS ON PROPERTY GURU? Kau merepek ah woman!" cos we are members mah...so I guess that's the great part about having friends as your clients.

I forgot how fun it was to have friends as your clients.
It's like SO GEREK TAHAP GILA BABS!!!!
I mean the energy level is so high and gotta thank Farena and Hubs for not acting all client-y and bossy with me so mood was relaxed!

We so chill that for Farena's unit, the day her Filipino tenants moved out...during the handover...a Saudi Arabian family came to view and offered for her place!
LIKE YABADABADOOO!
Syukur Alhamdullilah.

Gasp at my double chin! WAILS. But takpe, as long as Farena lawa it's ok. Cos she's the boss. That said, Alina, you need to up your photography skills. Thanks. Angle girl ANGLE!





Well can't blame Alina for doing a bad job with the photo taking la because the kids around us that day were mad cute. Distraction.

Anyway yeay yeay, that was good start.
To have friends as clients and we really do a swee swee job for them.
Nice.

But I must say that I have also forged beautiful friendships with my existing clients.
Never mind that I still haven't sold their homes yet.
It's like we cry on each other's shoulders and just keep persevering.

Or suddenly so many obstacles come our way and we are still hoping to find our way out.
And these clients, they stick with me because we are a team.
Thank you for the support. Means a lot to me.
We are like family and no one gets left behind.
We do not despair....we never ever give up...continue to be optimistic!
Amin!

Alright, love to blog more but it's time for me to strike off the many stuff to do list for today and one of them is:

"Buy Llao Llao."

I'm probably the last person to try but maaaaannnnnn, it's so sedap!!!!!
Please let there be no queue.
