Dear Friends,
Quick story- A guy I've known now for about 6 years
got into Real Estate 3 years ago. He asked me if I
would recommend him to everybody on my email list.
I don't really like to send out too many emails especially
trying to sell people stuff. He was a good guy but
I didn't know his work ethic so I politely avoided
him for the next 3 years (just joking!). I never did
send out his info. because like I said I didn't know
what he was about. Recently I received a letter from
him. (an actual mailed letter with stamp and everything.)
I'm reading this letter,
expecting it to be some sales talk about how he has
some great property available. But it's not. Instead
he's writing about his Dad's love of wood and carpentry.
How his father gave up being a Professor at the University
of Oklahoma, moved to Israel, lived on a Kibbutz farm
where he was assigned to the carpentry shop. Here
his father developed his love for
wood and wood working. Over the years the father grew
into one of the formost authorities in the world
on antique wood refinishing. In fact he authored a
book Understanding Wood Finishing: How To Select and
Apply the Right Finish that is the only book on Woodworking
to ever place in the top 1,000 books sold.
Back to the letter my friend sent me. Along with the
story of his father my friend also included in the
letter a brochure his father created called How To
Care for your Furniture. Now what does this have to
do with Real Estate? Absolutely nothing. That's the
point. It was a well
thought out, entertaining letter with practical and
useful information for his clients benefit. He wasn't
selling me anything. Now I know his work ethic and
the kind of Real Estate agent he would be and have
no problem recommending him to everybody. His name
is Erik Flexner.
Here is his contact information.

stuff.

To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing this letter to recommend the services
of Erik Flexner to anyone interested in selling their
unit in Villa d’Este or Playa Vista. Earlier
this year, Erik sold the only other re-sale in my
building. He understands the factors involved in selling
Playa Vista better than anyone, as he has closed more
properties than any other agent.
Erik has made Playa Vista re-sales the focus of his
career as an agent. He is dedicated to maximizing
the profits for sellers here. To date, Erik is responsible
for the highest price per square foot sale in Playa
Vista history.
This commitment means that his service to Playa Vista
sellers is second to none. With regard to my own property,
He has worked hard to keep a consistent schedule of
marketing and showings to find that perfect buyer.
Erik keeps track of the market forces affecting Playa
Vista on a daily basis. This means that any moment
I call, I can rely on him to always be on my side,
listen to my needs and concerns and know exactly what
is going on with regard to Playa Vista re-sales.
If you are a seller looking for a professional, dedicated
agent to represent your property in Villa d’Este
or any other property in Playa Vista, I highly recommend
you speak with Erik.
Sincerely,
Christophe Belloncie

This letter serves as positive reference for Erik Flexner
and is directed to the attention of anyone interested
in selling his or her property in Playa Vista. Erik
exhibited a keen knowledge of the real estate market,
not only in the Playa Vista area but the market climate
in general. As I understand Erik has sold three properties
in The Metro, including ours and has an outstanding
record selling more properties in Playa Vista than any
other agent.
Erik focuses on Playa Vista and showed our property
in an extremely professional and successful manner.
He is dedicated to maximizing the profits for interested
sellers in the Playa Vista development. To date, Erik
is responsible for the highest price per square foot
sale in Playa Vista history…on my unit!
I count on Erik to keep me informed of changes and factors
relating to Playa Vista. He listens to my concerns and
takes action. I am pleased to recommend Erik and if
there would be additional information that I may provide,
please feel free to contact me at 605 270 2012.
Sincerely,

Dear Erik,
I want to take this opportunity to let you know how
much I have enjoyed working with you these past three
months. You have acted very professionally, always
acting in my best interests. Your marketing strategy
was ingenious and I know you maximized the net investment
return I could expect from my condo in The Esplanade
(Playa Vista) building. I entrusted you with making
the decisions that as a seller, emotions can play
a role. Because I trusted your judgment, we were very
happy with the final results of this transaction.
Please feel free to call me if you need anything Erik.
I am deeply indebted to you and very happy we had
a chance to have paths that crossed. Also, please
add me to your client reference listing I would be
more than happy to give you a fine and honest recommendation
to any prospective client.
Sincerely,
Barry Favro
