Metro Brokers TV: Coming to you live at the floor of the Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs. This is an episode of Metro Brokers TV. Joining me right now is Doug DeWitt with Metro Brokers. Doug, thanks for coming down and talking with us today.

Doug DeWitt: You are very welcome.

Metro Brokers TV: How did you get started with Metro Brokers?

Doug DeWitt: You know I got started with Metro Brokers, honestly, from online as the first time I actually came in contact and then I found an office and the office that I found was here locally in Colorado Springs. Went and actually talked to the managing agent and really introduced me to the Metro Brokers.

Metro Brokers TV: In which office are you with and where is it located?

Doug DeWitt: I am located at the Metro Brokers Academy Broker's Office. It's at 6189 Lehman Drive in Colorado Springs, Colorado and Tom Brunk is the office owner.

Metro Brokers TV: So, just going in... found us first online, going in, you liked the experience, so, what has Metro Brokers done for you so far to help you with your real estate career?

Doug DeWitt: Where I came from before, I came from Keller Williams and so the switch from Keller Williams to Metro Brokers, basically, it allowed me to open up my own office and so, my options out there were to obviously open up my own office under my own name or associate myself with Metro Brokers, which gives me the reputation that it has had since 1976 and the opportunity to kind of do my own thing and that's really where it has helped me in getting me started. So, it has given me a franchise platform instead of just going out on my own cold turkey, I have actually been able to have some structure and some help through Metro Brokers.

Metro Brokers TV: So, it is allowing you to do business your way, but at the same time still have a powerful brand recognition behind you to give you that extra boost and how is the real estate industry in Colorado Springs right now?

Doug DeWitt: Real estate in Colorado Springs is like most, but what we are finding is the opportunity to do a lot of more short sales. So, we are getting a lot of listings, which gives us more exposure. We are a little bit lucky down at Colorado Springs right now because we have the military at Fort Carson. We have an influx of Fort Carson folks coming in. So, that gives us a lot of buyers and a lot of buyer opportunities.

Metro Brokers TV: Well, that's great. I am glad that your success story with Metro Brokers has been a positive one. We are glad to have you. For more information about other success stories of Metro Broker agents, go to metrobrokerstv.com.
