James Vandervis Account Manager

Hello my name is James Vandervis and I have been serving the real estate community for 5 years now. I am honored to have helped all the real estate professionals I have worked with over the years with not only closing their transactions and supporting throughout the process, but also to have helped them grow their business.

I studied at Concordia University in Irvine where I majored in business and international marketing. Working within the title insurance industry I have been able to apply my business and marketing skills into the industry and using the tools we offer at WFG I have been able to design and implement strategic ideas to help real estate professionals excel.

I have been very blessed that my business has also allowed me to work on everything from residential sales and refinances to land development and build outs for housing tracks to commercial resale and new construction.

I truly love what I do and helping others succeed in their business is the most rewarding part of what I do. Please call, email or text me to learn more about WFG National Title Company.

Successful Realtor Profile

I

’ve been involved in a number of studies that tried to figure out why top agents are top agents.

Do they have a common educational background? No. Good ones have high school diplomas, masters and doctorates. No correlation.

Similar previous careers? No. One of the best agents I know used to teach baton twirling. I doubt if I could find a lot of those if I tried! I’ve had waiters, teachers, high powered executives and stay-at-home Moms who were all very successful.

Common interests? No. Other than eating, (which we Realtor-types seem to do exceptional well) the interests are widely diverse.

After 13 years in real estate sales and management, I’ve only found a few constants.

1. Successful agents treat the real estate business as a business. They actually have a business plan and a budget. They understand that you have to spend money to make money. They know how many sales they need to make the income they require and then they figure how they’ll get from here to there. They plan in advance and execute the plan.

34

Executive Estates Magazine

2. They actually work when they work and play when they play and take a day or two off every week. (just like a “real job!”)

3. They have fun and enjoy selling real estate but know that it won’t be forever.

4. They buy a lot of real estate for investment when they see good deals because they know that no one gets rich selling the stuff. You get rich owning it! Financial independence gives one a lot of freedom, autonomy and a certain air of confidence that smells like success. . . . And people like to do business with successful people so they do more business!
