Elevate Your Real Estate Game with a Trusted Vendor Network

By Jacqueline Smith

Jacqueline Smith started in real estate in 2015 and sold 52 homes her first year in the business as a solo agent. After considering growing her own team, and exploring different team models, she decided to partner with Place in 2017. The partnership allowed her to fast track her growth, and provide better systems and models to her agent partners. Her and her team in Vancouver Washington now close over $165M in annual sales volume, while keeping the quality of the agent and client experience at the forefront.

In the fast-paced world of real estate, the significance of having a trusted vendor network cannot be overstated. It’s essential for real estate professionals to have reliable partners they can refer to and depend on. A prime example of such a partnership is the one I share with Brian Ross from Details Home Inspections. Our journey began at an open house, marking the start of our businesses and the beginning of a valuable collaboration that has grown alongside our teams.

The reputation of your partners in the agent community is vital. Not all inspection companies hold a commendable reputation, but Details Home Inspections stands out for their thorough inspections and exceptional client experiences. Their approach to customer service, interaction with clients, and seamless communication with real estate agents set them apart. This level of service not only reflects well on us as agents but also ensures our clients are well taken care of throughout the inspection process.

Effective communication is a cornerstone of Details Home Inspections’ success. They emphasize clear, concise, and calm communication, both on-site and post-inspection, allowing for questions and follow-ups from clients and realtors alike. This practice ensures everyone involved in the transaction is informed and comfortable, mitigating any potential alarm or concern that might arise from inspection findings.

One of the most appreciated aspects of working with Details Home Inspections is their effort to provide a comprehensive suite of services. From radon testing and sewer scopes to well flow and water quality testing, they strive to cover all necessary inspections in one visit. This convenience significantly simplifies the process for both buyers’ and sellers’ agents, reducing the need for multiple site visits and streamlining the transaction process.

For real estate agents, the convenience of scheduling and the breadth of services offered by a single vendor like Details Home Inspections cannot be understated. It enhances the efficiency of the transaction process, making it smoother and quicker for everyone involved. Their easy online scheduling and the integration of various inspections into one service package have been game-changers in providing seamless experiences for both agents and clients.

For agents, both new and experienced, adding a dependable partner like Details Home Inspections to your vendor network can make a significant difference in your business. They are licensed in Oregon and Washington, and further information can be found on their website, detailshomeinspections.com.
