While the short-term nature of the sales boom and skyrocketing insurance rates will probably flatten sales in ’07, Gardner has found other ways to pump up the bottom line. The company opened a builder development division to work with new construction and is expanding ancillary services from mortgage to title to electronic transaction data storage that protects clients’ records for them.

Watson Jr., CRB, GRI WHAT Ancillary service plus an in-house maintenance services company HOW Having a top-notch repair service on call to fix a last-minute problem has saved more than one transaction, critical for a company that saw sides fall 24 percent last year. “Our property management, maintenance, plumbing, and heating and air have proven to be profitable as well as countercyclical to real estate sales.” Slower times have also provided the breathing space to analyze costs. We were surprised at the savings from eliminating some extra T-1 lines and bidding out services.” WORDS OF WISDOM “The current market rewards those who are focused on their business.” 76 RE/MAX Results (Collopy & Saunders Real Estate Inc.)
