<li><strong>Variety</strong> &#8211; Any given day I could be forming relationships with clients, looking at homes with views of snow capped mountains or tweaking my marketing to generate more business. I enjoy not having to be behind a desk all day.</li>
<li><strong>Homes In Estes Park</strong> &#8211; Working with property like what you can find in Estes Park never gets old.</li>
<li><strong>Diversity</strong> &#8211; Real estate agency is an extremely diverse career requiring a wide range skills from dealing with people to dealing with computers – both of which I enjoy doing.</li>
<li><strong>Puzzles</strong> &#8211; These days, every real estate deal seems to be a puzzle that needs to be pieced together just right.</li>
<li><strong>Work Schedule</strong> &#8211; There is flexibility for me to be with my family. I have 3 kids all under the age of 5 and a wife who all like having me around.</li>
<li><strong>Architecture</strong> &#8211; I have always been interested in architecture. There are many examples of well designed homes in Estes Park that take full advantage of the surroundings.</li>
<li><strong>Flexibility</strong> &#8211; Owning my own business is exciting. I enjoy the responsibility of making my own decisions and running it as I wish.</li>
<li><strong>New Friends</strong> &#8211; My favorite transactions are the ones when I make a new friend or two.</li>
<li><strong>Job Security</strong> &#8211; Estes Park enjoys an endless supply of people who grew up vacationing here who would now love to live here.</li>
<li><strong>Helping People</strong> &#8211; Most people are uncomfortable with the amount of paperwork involved in a real estate transaction these days. I enjoy utilizing my expertise to protect their best interest.</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><!-- Start Shareaholic LikeButtonSetTop Automatic --><!-- End Shareaholic LikeButtonSetTop Automatic --><h3>Why use Sam as your Realtor?</h3>
<p><strong>I am not a Real Estate salesman. </strong>I am a client advocate in the pursuit of matching buyers and sellers in Estes Park through serving my clients’ best interests at all times. I understand that most people buying and selling real estate in Estes Park are intelligent people. These people are not looking for a sales pitch. They are looking for a professional who knows Estes Park and can add value to the real estate transaction.</p>
<p><strong>Being technologically savvy </strong>means more than being able to send and receive emails. I know how to utilize the power of the internet to distribute your property to buyers in the locations they look at first. Buyers have options available to contact me in the way they feel is most comfortable to them.</p>
<p><strong>Real Estate is not a part time hobby </strong>or a second job for me. I am fully immersed in the market and have a habit of matching new properties to clients’ preferences and sending them out before most other agents realize the property is available.</p>
<p><strong>Customer service boils down to serving my clients passionately </strong>to the best of my ability establishing their needs as the reason I do business. I want to provide more value than promised and deliver that value before my client realizes they have a need.</p>
<p><strong>I am honest and ethical</strong> not because I belong to an organization that has a code of ethics, but because it’s the right thing to do.</p>
<p><strong>Participating in continuing education is essential to improving the services I provide.</strong> I enjoy going to classes, conferences, reading books, or networking with other Realtors. I don’t participate just because it is required.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><!-- Start Shareaholic LikeButtonSetTop Automatic --><!-- End Shareaholic LikeButtonSetTop Automatic --><p>Being a novice blogger looking to reshape my online presence, I wasn’t entirely sure what I’d find at The Blogworld Expo and Real Estate Blogworld this past weekend in Las Vegas. However, this sign sums it up pretty well. If you heard someone say “This Way” at Blogworld, it would probably be a good idea to listen. The quality of the individuals I met and the content they provided through the seminars and conversations in the hallways were beyond outstanding.</p>
<p>I have been on a mission to create a destination online for people to easily and efficiently buy and sell homes in the Estes Park area. My end goal for this destination is to offer my professional services and provide valuable tools in the process of buying and selling real estate. I believe my services are extremely valuable to real estate buyers and sellers in Estes Park.</p>
<p>This past weekend at Blogworld has given me multiple tools and ideas to further my goal of providing outstanding real estate service in Estes Park. I still have a whole stack of notes to weed through, many more links to explore, and plans to create. Once I do get through my new and expanded to do list, expect to see some changes here in the coming weeks.</p>
