This episode of Women Who Lead was very fittingly recorded for International Women’s Month which couldn’t be more perfect for the amazing group of women you’ll hear from! Cathy Larmore, Alma Cecilia Ramirez, and Teresa Walsh join your host, Teresa Palacios Smith in a great conversation about how they became agents, their biggest inspirations in life, and all the things they wish they had known when they were first starting out. 

 Meet the Leaders

  • Cathy Larmore - Senior Vice President of Support for Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Carolinas
  • Alma Cecilia Ramirez - Co-Owner and Broker of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Colonial Homes San Miguel
  • Teresa Walsh - President of Sell New Homes (SellNewHomes.com)

 Real Estate is Changing - How Should We Respond?

  • Teresa: Stay knowledgeable about the markets as they change, and talk to your clients about what their current needs are and advise them to do what makes the most sense.
  • Cathy: Going back to the basics will take you far! Show up, be present with your clients, and stay current in your knowledge without listening to the media too much.
  • Alma: Always keep learning, and take your time building a relationship with your clients so you can earn their trust.

 How Can New Agents Avoid Common Mistakes?

  • Cathy: Open, honest communication is always the most important thing – whether with your peers, leaders, or clients.
  • Teresa: Get comfortable being uncomfortable. If you’re too comfortable, you’re not pushing yourself, and you’re not growing.
  • AR: Listen intently to your client’s needs, and know all of the details of what you are selling so that you can be well-prepared.
