Mission Statement:
"The AW&Co. Concierge real estate concept is about helping our clients from A to Z and being their point of contact throughout the process, guiding them and just handling things to make the process smooth and easy. While at the same time living a "Work-Life-Harmony" that allows us to love what we do and do what we love. It's not about breaking records it's about living a life that is rich and meaningful. Making your life a joy so that you can enjoy real estate is what Work Life Harmony is truly about." - Albert
If this rings true to you - you may have found your tribe. Whether you sell 4, 7, 10, 15 or 20 homes, if it allows you to go on that vacation, pay off your home, spend time with the people you care about and not be ground down by life and work - then you are in the right place. Life has cycles and maybe you want to sell more homes this year, maybe you want to sell less, you are the director of your show and we support that. We champion you, and cheer you on to live life to the fullest. We are not an LPT, EXP, KW, or Compass, those models are designed like Multi Level Marketing schemes and make a lot of their money on the backs of those who buy into that concept. We are straight forward, no smoke and mirrors, no BS just solid basic brokerage service that works for agent who are selling less than 35 homes a year.

If you have been in the business for 5+ years and have done over 20 transactions - you can contact Albert directly at WoosterFLA@gmail.comSTEP ONE (if you are less than 5 years in the business)
If the AW&Co. Difference (above) sounds good to you continue on to the quick 5 min. quizzes.
Then show us your technical skills by sending us a screenshot of your results.
This DISC assessment identifies your strongest personality traits. D is for Decisive, I if for Interactive, S is for Stabilizing, and C is for Cautious. The job of a realtor is highly Interactive so we are looking for people with this as their dominant trait. A DISC assessment can be quite helpful for you as well in selecting careers that are suited best for your personality and it is used by HR departments around the world for placing people in the right positions.
Remember, make sure you take a screenshot of your results when you're done!
STEP TWO
This quiz is from Berkley.edu and will ask you some identifying questions at the end of the quiz, such as age, gender, etc., (however this is not something that we at AW&CO have access to). Your answers to these questions are private and serve only as data for researchers at the University of California. We only want to see your quiz scores. If you are not fearful of the world, have nothing to hide, and know-how to click unsubscribe if you get any spam emails, then soldier on. As a Realtor, you are a public figure and you do NOT want to hide your identity, you want people to find you. We're looking for Realtors who are empathetic it is an important factor to determine if you can make it in this business. Your score needs to be on the higher end of the empathy scale. The job of a Realtor is often working with people at a turning point in their lives and they can be emotional. Helping them navigate this technical process with empathy is highly useful and is also a determining factor of a Realtor's long-term success. Those who score middle or low on the empathy score will face burnout in this job in 1-3 years and should consider a different career.
Remember, make sure you take a screenshot of your results when you're done!
STEP TREE
Being able to build trust when you are making big asks is pivotal. While this next quiz is geared towards fundraisers, it is also very relevant to our work in the real estate industry.
As a real estate agent, you will be asking big questions - like what your client values, or to sign on the dotted line to spend hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, of dollars. By determining your "Asking Style", you can learn how to serve your clients better.
This quiz starts out by asking you for your name and email, but also offers an option to opt-out of communications.
Make sure you take a screenshot of your results when you're done!
STEP FOUR
The last part is to show off your tech skills.
Attach your screenshots to an email, with the Subject Line "Ready To Join The Team!" and send the email to Albert at WoosterFLA@gmail.com.
We will be hiring the select few who fit in with our team at AW&CO and who really want to take their real estate game to the next level. Good luck to all applicants!
