Century 21 Cedarcrest Realty Celebrates Agents Who’ve Joined us in 2017

Wow, what a busy and fruitful year it has been at Century 21 Cedarcrest, with the addition of nearly a dozen new real estate agents to our roster in 2017. These agents are working with home buyers and sellers throughout northern New Jersey and have quickly become a big asset to our team.

The real estate agents who joined us this year have similar reasons for choosing our agency but come from such a rich diversity of business and professional backgrounds. Some have been licensed real estate agents but have not been active, others are entering the field for the first time. What they tell us is that they chose real estate because:

• It allows for more personal and financial freedom. Getting away from a daily grind, greater independence, and being in more control of their schedules and work load were major attractions for them.
• Real estate is a “people first” business. A greater ability to make a difference for customers is a common thread.
  • One agent considers herself a consumer advocate; at Century 21 Cedarcrest, she looks out for her home buyers and sellers and executes on her philosophy of always delivering great service.
  • Another said that through real estate, she has “endless opportunities to help others.”

As for why they chose Century 21 Cedarcrest Realty for their career, we are honored and delighted that our support earns such enthusiastic accolades. Our senior staff and the help they offer, and the Century 21 name are other factors.

An agent who has made the move to a full-time real estate career after working in it part time for 10 years, cited “the great group of people working at the office.” She said she appreciates the teamwork, training, professionalism, and leadership at Century 21 Cedarcrest, which she also identified as key components to success in this business (we blush!)

Susan Mazzetta, our director of career development, works with our agents at all stages of their careers, coaching and educating them on many aspects of real estate at our in-house seminars. These include how to create listings that get noticed, developing sales strategies, phone techniques, how to handle expired and specialty listings, and negotiating.

“It’s so important to stay abreast of current market trends and best practices when it comes to marketing properties,” says Susan. “I am passionate about helping all our agents develop and expand their marketing capabilities, and keeping them up to date on what’s happening in the real estate market, both regionally and industry-wide.”

Susan isn’t the only one passionate about her coaching and the results that ongoing agent education delivers. Another agent who joined us this year said that, “I believe Century 21 Cedarcrest sets the golden standard for excellence. In my 30+ years as a professional in a different business, I always worked for the best. I wanted to represent Century 21 Cedarcrest because they are the most recognized the name in the real estate world.”
