At Tommy’s, the sales teams hold meetings,
usually, twice weekly. These create an
opportunity for agents to promote their listings
and to discuss details of any properties they have
for sale. As we stated earlier, communication
is vital in our industry both between agents
and between agent and client. Talking about a
property can often be the catalyst for one agent
selling a property listed for sale by a different
agent in that office.
Generally speaking, Tommy’s offices have not
been inconvenienced materially by the Covid-19
lock-down and have adapted well to the changes
required. We look forward though, to something
resembling normality in the months ahead. Whilst
winter usually heralds an industry slow-down, we
are optimistic that this year may be different.
People still need to be housed and with the very
favourable borrowing rates on offer at present,
we believe June and July may produce better
than usual sales statistics. Time will tell, but at
least communication will be easier and more
effective than what we have worked through
in recent months, and good communication
facilitates good sales results.
The Tommy’s sales team will continue to observe
Government directives to protect the safety of
those we deal with, and will ensure that buyers,
sellers, landlords and tenants dealing with our
company obtain the best advice possible in
these difficult and unusual times.
Best Wishes,
Tommys Real Estate Ltd.
