January Top Producers 2024

“The bad news is time flies. The good news is you’re the pilot” – Michael Altshuler

Whether the new year started with a grand display of sparkly fireworks or the peace and comfort of an early bedtime, the speed of time passing seems to get faster as we go, even though we’re issued the same 24 hours each and every day. Some days we achieve greatness in the form of organization, or goal setting and achievement. Other days it’s a miracle just to make it home to the sofa. But each day we are healthy, we are given the chance to try our best again.

Bringing us to our second inspirational quote:

Your present circumstances don’t determine where you can go. They merely determine where you start.” – Nido Qubein

Every day that we get to make a new choices, we see if the outcome differs for the better. There are those among us that excel at determining where they start each day, and their success becomes ours to witness and learn from.

Jack Bailey

So begins 2024 with Jack Bailey and the constructive crew at Help-U-Sell Greensboro in North Carolina. They are already making a strong presence for the new year. Lucky 13 is how they landed the top spot. 

Only two behind with 11 sides in second place is Jeff Hedberg of Help-U-Sell Real Masters in Port Huron, Michigan. Off to another great start for Jeff. 

Third place goes to Debra Schmidt of Help-U-Sell Heritage Real Estate of Steele County in Owatonna. Seven is already lucky but with six of those being seller sides, we know folks were serious about saving. 

A triple tie for fourth place with five sides each is how we love to see progress. Richard Cricchio of Help-U-Sell Honolulu Properties in Hawaii,  John Powell at Help-U-Sell The Powell Group in Tucson, Arizona, and Mario Ferrante from Help-U-Sell Metropolitan in Woodhaven, Michigan share the high five.

Top Producers 2023 Year In Review

Celebrate endings for they precede new beginnings. – Jonathan Lockwood Huie

After much media hand-wringing, mortgage rates that brought tears to our eyes (not in a good way), and a dramatic shift from sellers once eager to uproot to sellers waiting it out from fear of not being able to find a home elsewhere, thus resulting in even tighter inventory, we made it here to one report to rule them all.

Despite these obstacles, life, like real estate, eked a path forward; Because at the end of all good reasons to not sell a home or buy a home, people still need to do what they must. Whether moving for a job or helping Great Aunt Linda transition from a house to a condo, predictions or rates do not stop life in its tracks.

Our Top Producers soldiered on, tweaking plans or marketing spends as necessary, and renewed efforts to reach out to buyers and sellers, both old and new. Folks still want to save money where they can, of course! The experts next door at Help-U-Sell Real Estate were there to provide the same great service at a set fee, as we have been for nearly five decades. 

Jack Bailey

If there is anyone who demonstrates the resolve to find opportunities in each day, that person has to be Jack Bailey and the lively lineup at Help-U-Sell Greensboro in North Carolina. The seller sides tip slightly higher at 67, but adding up to 125 total sides for the year.

The men from Michigan take the second and third spots. 

In second place is Mario Ferrante from Help-U-Sell Metropolitan in Woodhaven, Michigan. The number 85 and the work of a trusted team was what brought him here.

Just two sides behind in third place, is Jeff Hedberg of Help-U-Sell Real Masters in Port Huron, Michigan. 83 sides makes 2024 a productive year to be proud of.

Fourth place takes us to Minnesota, where we find Debra Schmidt of Help-U-Sell Heritage Real Estate of Steele County in Owatonna. Debra’s office helped amass 69 sides for 2023, with sellers outnumbering buyers by nearly double.

Top Producers Q4 2023

“Wisdom comes with winters.” – Oscar Wilde

There is so much change in a single season, but none probably more dramatic or busy than winter. In less industrialized times, folks spent the fall harvesting and canning in preparation for the colder months ahead, sustaining the day to day activities until the time of growth returned. If one planned poorly, winter was harder to survive, but ideally that made one wiser for the next round.

Real estate cycles, and the committed industry professionals, share similarities to preparation for a long winter. They worked hard to create and sustain growth when it counted. When the outlook predicts a turn for leaner times, they conserve and plan for the future, so there are resources to rely on.

Jack Bailey and his team at Help-U-Sell Greensboro in North Carolina have made a great example of planning and preparation as a regular part of the day’s work. They come in first place for the fourth quarter of 2023 with 26 sides.

Second place belongs to Patrick Wood of Help-U-Sell Prestige Properties, in Chino Hills, California. His office matched first place in the number of seller sides for Q4, but come in six sides fewer for a total of 20.

We get a triple tie for third place!

Jeff Hedberg of Help-U-Sell Real Masters in Port Huron, Michigan, Debra Schmidt of Help-U-Sell Heritage Real Estate of Steele County in Owatonna, Minnesota, and Mario Ferrante from Help-U-Sell Metropolitan in Woodhaven, Michigan. All three offices bring in 15 sides to land third place for Q4.

Kimberly Zelena, Help-U-Sell Direct Savings Real Estate

In fourth place we found  Kimberly Zelena and her crew at Help-U-Sell Direct Savings Real Estate in Waynesboro, Virginia. 12 sides for Q4 meant an average of one a week!

December Top Producer 2023

“December: A month of lights, snow, coziness, and feasts; time to make amends and tie up loose ends; finish what you started and make your wishes come true.” – Unknown

The last two sentiments of this quote, “finish what you started and make your wishes come true”, while words of wisdom for anyone, can be a juggernaut for the real estate professional looking analytically at the year behind them with an intent on improving the year ahead.

Wrap up, assess, plan, reconfigure as needed. Why? Because the market is always changing. The advertising spend that worked last year may not be working now. Mortgage rates change. Expectations shift accordingly. Those who anticipated difficulty and became the agents of change sustained the momentum to keep going.

In the last month of 2023, Patrick Wood of Help-U-Sell Prestige Properties in Chino Hills, California, made a bid for the top spot and takes the lead. A total of ten sides makes for a very satisfying close to this chapter.

For the rest of our report, you will be seeing double. It’s not you! It’s us! There are ties for second, third, fourth, and even fifth places here.

It was the most wonderful time of year, indeed. In second place: Jack Bailey and the team at Help-U-Sell Greensboro, and Debra Schmidt of Help-U-Sell Heritage Real Estate of Steele County in Owatonna, Minnesota. Both offices close out the month with six sides.

Michigan takes over third place with Mario Ferrante from Help-U-Sell Metropolitan in Woodhaven, and Jeff Hedberg of Help-U-Sell Real Masters in Port Huron. Each office brought four sides to end the year.

Three sides each snags the fourth place for John Powell at Help-U-Sell The Powell Group in Tucson, Arizona, and Nathan Douglas of Help-U-Sell Santa Maria, in Santa Maria, California.

Suffice to say, our Top Producers finished what they started this month.

Jack Bailey, Help-U-Sell Greensboro

November 2023 Top Producers

November kicks the holidays into high gear. So it’s easy to overlook your daily life tasks when a whole new list of “must dos” for preparations (and/or travel) gets tacked onto the already packed day of obligations. We can get overwhelmed and forget what is important.  Which brings us this poignant thought from Charmaine J. Forde: “Don’t wait until the fourth Thursday in November, to sit with family and friends to give thanks. Make every day a day of Thanksgiving!” 

We all have struggles and accomplishments, wins and losses, growth and loss. Appreciating the small and big good things – whether it’s your pet cuddled on the sofa with you while you read, going to see your grandchild’s recital, hosting the family gathering, or bringing cookies to your neighbors – those moments are the rewards of working every day. Helping people sell homes, with honesty, integrity, expertise, and exceptional service. We are thankful for it.

Jack Bailey

From the heart of North Carolina, we find Jack Bailey and the team Help-U-Sell Greensboro. They are number one often. Speak with Jack and you find out why: he cultivates success with kindness, reason, fairness, and a willingness to tweak processes as needed to work well. November brings ten sides to the office. 

Second place belongs to Mario Ferrante from Help-U-Sell Metropolitan in Woodhaven, Michigan. This month the lucky number is seven, with more folks buying than selling.

Patrick Wood of Help-U-Sell Prestige Properties in Chino Hills, California takes third place by just one side shy, with six. His team has rocked the sellers sides with five creating maximum savings.
