MetrobrokersTV: Hi, this is Robin Wood. We are here with Metro Brokers TV today
interviewing Doug Lindstrom. Hello
Doug. Thank you for joining us.
Doug Lindstrom: Hi there.
Thank you. My pleasure.
MetrobrokersTV: So I understand your company's name is Metro
Brokers - Legacy Partners.
Doug Lindstrom: That's right.
MetrobrokersTV: Where are you located?
Doug Lindstrom: We are located up in Loveland at the I25, 34 interchange up there
in Centera.
MetrobrokersTV: Excellent and you are an office owner.
Doug Lindstrom: That's right.
MetrobrokersTV: Congratulations.
Doug Lindstrom: Thank you.
MetrobrokersTV: And the only office up in Loveland.
Doug Lindstrom: That's right.
They had an office up there at one time, but I am the newest, the latest
and greatest up in northern Colorado.
MetrobrokersTV: Fantastic.
Oh, trail blazing.
Doug Lindstrom: Yes.
MetrobrokersTV: This is exciting.
Doug Lindstrom: [laughs]
MetrobrokersTV: So, now, how many years have you been in the
real estate business?
Doug Lindstrom: About nine years. I started out in California
working for First Team Real Estate in Orange County,
moved here in 2005 and started with RE/MAX Alliance, and I have been with Metro
Brokers Legacy Partners about two months now.
MetrobrokersTV: Two months... two exciting months.
Doug Lindstrom: Two exciting months, yes.
MetrobrokersTV: So, it's... can you tell me why you left
RE/MAX.
Doug Lindstrom: Why I left RE/MAX? Well, there is actually a few reasons; #1, it
was probably a value play. Regardless of
the market, I just needed more value in what I was doing and how I was
operating a real estate business. #2 I
made a ultimate decision with my wife and we just said, you know what, you
might as well invest in yourself if you are going to invest in anything right
now and that's what we ultimately did and it is hard to beat with the money and
the value you get out of Metro Brokers.
MetrobrokersTV: Yes, yes.
Now, speaking of value from Metro Brokers, lots of value and lots of
tools, what have you found to be advantageous for your business?
Doug Lindstrom: Well, so far they have a great website,
online mapping, of course all your listings and then I use... really utilize CTM
e-contracts quite a bit and then of course the stop sign is a good brand and a
recognized brand that adds some credibility.
MetrobrokersTV: Yes, it does.
Now, you specialize in residential, commercial...?
Doug Lindstrom: I probably do about 90% residential and just
a little bit of commercial here and there.
MetrobrokersTV: Excellent.
Well, thank you so much for joining us today.
Doug Lindstrom: You are welcome.
MetrobrokersTV: And explaining to us why you are.
Doug Lindstrom: Sure.
MetrobrokersTV: And we are very fortunate to have you.
Doug Lindstrom: Thank you.
MetrobrokersTV: Good luck in your new business up in Loveland.
Doug Lindstrom: You bet.
Thank you very much.
MetrobrokersTV: Thank you.
